Petronella Partner, $0 to join

Become a Petronella Partner for $0: refer clients or resell white label

Petronella Technology Group, Inc. offers MSPs a free partner agreement. There is no fee to join and nothing to buy. You sign one agreement and choose, when you sign, how you want to work client deals: refer them and earn a commission, sell our services under your own brand at a per-deal wholesale quote, or both.

Option A: Referral, 10% of services revenue

  • You introduce the client. Petronella Technology Group, Inc. sells, contracts and delivers under its own name.
  • You earn 10% of the services revenue we receive from that client during the first 12 months of the client's agreement. Fees for work our team performs count; hardware, third-party licenses, platform and pass-through costs do not.
  • Commissions are paid within 30 days after the month we receive the client's payment, with a commission statement. The client must sign with us within six months of your approved deal registration.

Option B: White label, per-deal wholesale quote

  • You sell under your own brand at the price you set. We deliver as your subcontractor, and you bill the client.
  • Each deal gets a written wholesale quote, valid for 30 days. Your margin is the difference between your price and the quote. Fixed-fee work is paid 100% upfront when the order is signed; recurring work is billed in advance.
  • The client stays with your MSP. We do not knowingly solicit a white-label client to replace you for the same services, during the agreement and for 24 months after it ends (the agreement lists the exceptions).
  1. Apply free. Send the one-form partner application and choose Petronella Partner.
  2. Fit review. Our team reviews every application within two business days.
  3. Sign the agreement. If it is a fit, we send the Partner Agreement for electronic signature. You elect referral, white label, or both when you sign.
  4. Register each deal. We approve or decline a deal registration within five business days. An approved registration protects the opportunity for 90 days and can be renewed while the deal is active.

The agreement runs for one year and renews automatically unless either side gives 30 days' notice. It is non-exclusive for both sides. Attestation letters, documents signed by a credentialed practitioner such as a CMMC Registered Practitioner, submissions to regulators or assessors, and Business Associate Agreements always carry the Petronella Technology Group, Inc. name. Wholesale prices are quoted per deal and are not published.

Petronella MSP Stack, below, is the optional paid tier for MSPs that also want the full training catalog and the private member community.

Founding members: MSP Growth

MSP Growth is a separate membership from Stack, for MSPs that want coaching on how to sell security, compliance and AI work. MSP Growth adds sales coaching on top of the free partner agreement: an AI sales coach and a template library (live now for members), a monthly live group call with Craig Petronella, and the 35-course Training Academy catalog with 5 staff training seats.

Ten founding seats are $697 per month, locked for 12 months (list price $997), start October 13, 2026, and carry a 30-day full refund. The free partner agreement above stays free, and it is all most MSPs need to start.

Who This Is For

Petronella MSP Stack is built for MSPs that fit one or more of the signals below. If none apply, other tiers in the ladder may fit better.

  • MSP with $300K to $1.5M in annual revenue and at least one regulated-SMB client (defense, healthcare, legal, financial).
  • MSP actively chasing a regulated-SMB account but lacking CMMC-RP or HIPAA credentials in-house.
  • MSP owner who wants a sellable framework (39-Layer) to differentiate from MSPs selling commodity IT.
  • MSP willing to invest in async curriculum versus waiting for a bootcamp cohort to form.
  • MSP that values a peer-led deal-flow network over high-pressure mastermind models.

The monthly live Q&A with Craig Petronella and the quarterly compliance briefings are delivered to members on their schedule.
Is there a free way to work with Petronella first?
Yes. Petronella Partner is $0 to join: refer clients for 10% of the services revenue we receive in their first 12 months, or resell our services white label at a per-deal wholesale quote. You can also download the free MSP CMMC and Private-AI Profit Playbook, read how MSPs deliver CMMC Level 2 with us, or send the one-form partner application and our team replies within two business days.
How does cancel-anytime work?
Month-to-month. Cancel in the member portal any time. The remaining month is served; no pro-rating, no refunds. Annual members keep access through their paid year; no mid-year withdrawal refunds.
Do I need to hire a CMMC-RP to deliver compliance work?
No. Petronella MSP Stack gives you the frameworks, templates, and curriculum to educate yourself. If a specific client engagement needs a named CMMC-RP on the SOW, Tier 2 Fleet includes a co-signing add-on at $1,500/mo per engagement.
Is there setup or onboarding fee?
Zero. Stripe checkout delivers credentials to the Training Academy and the private member community within minutes. No scheduling a call required.
What if I want Craig's time for a specific client problem?
Private Sessions are available at 2-hour, half-day, and full-day rates. Tier 1 members may book when Craig opens slots. Tier 3 and Tier 4 members get prioritized scheduling.
Do you offer partial refunds if it is not a fit?
No. All fees are non-refundable. Month-to-month cancellation stops future charges - past charges stand. Stripe checkout shows these terms in a required checkbox that you must tick before paying.
How is this different from Robin Robins TMT or Perry Marshall RenAI?
TMT is owner-group coaching with marketing emphasis; RenAI is ChatGPT-for-marketers. Petronella MSP Stack is specifically regulated-SMB compliance plus private AI infrastructure, built by a CMMC Registered Practitioner Team at a firm operating since 2002. Different audience, different moat.
Where does Petronella MSP Stack fit into the full ladder?
Entry tier. Petronella Fleet handles services-only prototyping for specific regulated client engagements. Petronella Operator Council is the invitation-only $45K-$60K/yr peer cohort. Petronella Strategic Partnership is the Jay-Abraham-model advisory tier at $25K/mo + rev-share.
