Business is business.
Serious Bizz provides the connections, platform, management, resources and opportunities that help independent creatives grow. When we create or facilitate a qualifying paid business opportunity, Serious Bizz earns a 25% Platform & Opportunity Fee under the agreed transaction terms.
We believe everybody involved deserves to get paid for the value they bring, including the company making the opportunity possible. Let's build, collaborate and get paid together.
Split an agreed amount
Enter the commissionable transaction the parties agree on. The split is the same on every covered deal.

75% provider
$750.00
Paid to the creative doing the work
Based on an agreed transaction of $1,000.00. Only transactions documented under an accepted agreement are covered.
Member connection fee
When two members meet through our platform, our database, Find Your Team, or a direct introduction by our management team, and they decide to do paid business together, Serious Bizz earns a 25% Platform & Finder's Fee on the qualifying transactions their accepted agreement covers.
“You join for free. You connect through Serious Bizz. When a qualifying business deal comes from that connection, Serious Bizz gets its agreed 25%. Everybody gets paid for the value they bring.”

The same principle applies when our network connects artists with engineers, songwriters, videographers or other eligible creative service providers.
Protecting the business
- Serious Bizz receives 25% of the agreed commissionable compensation from qualifying paid projects that come from protected introductions.
- Members must not deliberately move a covered transaction off the platform to avoid an agreed fee.
- Members document and report qualifying paid work covered by their agreements.
- Serious Bizz may withhold new introductions from members who decline the applicable fee agreement.
- Any later project covered by the original agreement must be specifically defined, inside a reasonable time period.
- Preexisting relationships and unrelated independently obtained business are excluded.
What this is not
Free accounts stay free. The 25% is not a registration fee, a membership fee, or a charge for simply talking to another member. It is the agreed fee for qualifying paid business created through Serious Bizz introductions and matchmaking — never claimed on transactions outside an accepted agreement.

How it works
Accept the agreement first
The parties accept the 25% fee agreement before a protected introduction is unlocked. No accepted agreement, no introduction.
We record the deal
The opportunity, the parties, the agreed compensation and the payment obligations are recorded on our ledger, with the agreement it sits under.
The 25% is calculated automatically
The commissionable amount is split 75/25 the moment the deal is recorded, and authorized managers are alerted with the client contact and what is owed.
Everybody gets paid
75% goes to the creative or service provider under their agreed arrangement, 25% to Serious Bizz. Nothing is deducted from unrelated work.
Non-circumvention & fair boundaries
- The 25% applies only to covered transactions documented in an agreement accepted before the opportunity is facilitated. It does not apply to every activity or independent transaction just because someone has a website account.
- A reasonable non-circumvention clause protects the fee on specifically covered introductions and transactions. Parties may not route a covered deal around the platform to avoid it.
- Free membership, artist services and unrelated independent business relationships are preserved. If the agreement is declined, no protected opportunity is facilitated — but nothing else changes.
- Every qualifying deal is recorded with the parties, the agreed compensation, the fee and the payment obligations, and authorized managers are notified.
Where it applies
Studio bookings, memberships, engineer rentals and self-recording time are paid services with their own published rates — this fee does not change those prices.
