EEMDG Lodge

Partner program · For accountants & virtual CFOs

Refer your exporting clients. Earn $250 per signed Grant Agreement.

You shouldn't be writing Plans to Market or babysitting Austrade portal windows. Send your exporting SMEs to us. We draft, lodge and manage the EMDG application end-to-end. Your client gets up to $80,000 a year. You get a referral cheque and a happier client.

No lock-inNo software to install. No certification. Just a warm intro by email.

§ 01 · Why refer

EMDG isn't an accounting job anymore.

The 2021 reforms turned EMDG into a marketing-plan and timing game. Generalist firms lose money trying to learn it. Specialists win it.

  • 01

    Stop the non-billable bleed

    The new EMDG Plan to Market, capacity-to-spend test, and first-come, first-served queue mechanics are a specialist job. Your team's hours are better spent on advisory and compliance work clients actually pay for.

  • 02

    We carry the lodgement risk

    Late lodgement is the single biggest cause of rejection in the current round model. We hold lodgement-ready files in escrow and submit in the first hour of the next intake — so your client gets a Grant Agreement, not a 'next round' email.

  • 03

    You stay the trusted adviser

    We white-glove the engagement, copy you on the Grant Agreement, and feed you the financial figures you need for tax season. The client never feels handed off — they feel taken care of.

§ 02 · Terms

Plain English. No fine print.

A one-page partner letter on request. Pay-out tracked per referral and settled after your client signs their Grant Agreement.

§ 03 · How it works

From intro email to referral cheque.

  1. Step 01

    Intro

    Forward a one-line intro email. We take it from there — no client of yours ever needs to chase us.

  2. Step 02

    Fit check

    We pre-qualify quickly. If it's not a fit, you hear back with reasons, not jargon.

  3. Step 03

    Lodgement

    We draft the Plan to Market, sit in escrow, and lodge in the first hour of the next intake.

  4. Step 04

    Payout

    Once your client signs the Grant Agreement, the $250 referral fee is paid. Every cycle.
