The Resource Directory
Ambassador Programme
Join the programme and earn R50 every time someone orders a Directory on your recommendation!
Not only will you earn extra income, but you will also help bring this incredible resource to more South Africans, ultimately helping to create a more resilient and empowered society.
Everything You Need to Know to Get Started
How it Works
The Ambassador Programme is NOT open to businesses, retailers or wholesalers.
Becoming an ambassador is easy, but only if you understand and believe in the value that this product can bring to society and those who serve society.
This means that:
- You should familiarise yourself with the Resource Directory.
- You should, ideally, own a copy of the Resource Directory so that you can knowledgeably speak from experience. If you don’t yet have one, order it here.
If someone orders one or more copies of the directory from our website and lists your name as the person who introduced them, we will deposit R50 into your bank account for every book thus ordered, within 5 days of the client’s payment reflecting in our account.
The Resource Directory sells itself – no hard sell necessary. All you need to do is show your copy of the directory to people or tell them about it on your social media platforms. Social workers, public servants, teachers, NPOs and human resource people are most likely to be interested in the book.
Whenever an order is discounted, you will earn 12% of the ex-VAT amount – not R50 per copy. Examples: NPOs qualify for a 10% discount or a bulk order may result in a discounted sale. Just make sure to have them list your name on their order or quote request. Or let us know that you are negotiating that sale.
Imagine someone ordering 500 copies!
Please note:
- Ambassadors are not entitled to commission on subsequent sales (e.g., of new editions and print runs) if these are negotiated directly between the Company and the Client.
- Ambassadors may not sell to libraries or third parties, such as retailers.
- Ambassadors may not be related to or employed by the buyer.

Audiences
