The programme positions you or your business in the network marketing market for 12 months.
Do not merely appear. Claim your category.
A single article gives you passing attention. Regular and exclusive presence builds a professional position.
As a Professional Category Partner you receive the full partner position of one approved category for 12 months in Network Marketing Magazine.
What does category exclusivity mean?
- We do not advertise or sell another partner place in the same category.
- No new article from another professional or provider appears in the category.
- New professional content in the category is produced exclusively with you.
- You alone receive the category page and the partner badge.
- Your name, face or business appears as the featured partner of the category.
Pay the 12 months in one sum and your category is guaranteed yours for the full term.
This programme is for you if
- You have genuine professional experience.
- Your knowledge can add value to distributors, leaders or network marketing companies.
- You want the market to associate your name with one specific category.
- You want a long-term professional position, not a one-off advertisement.
- You are ready to share valuable and verifiable knowledge on a regular basis.
If you are an active network marketing leader building your leadership name and team, the Leadership Partner Program is the right fit. If you represent a network marketing company, the Corporate Partner Program is the right fit.
What do we build over 12 months?
A recognisable expert name
Regular appearances help readers connect your name and your face to one specific topic.
Trust through your knowledge
We do not build the position on advertising slogans. Useful professional content shows how you think and how you can help.
A protected paid partner category
During the engagement we accept a single active, paying Professional Category Partner in a given category. If two applicants want the same category, the partner paying the annual fee in one sum takes priority.
What does the programme include?
Every Professional Category Partner receives the same full presence package for 12 months.
We plan the topics together. You provide the professional knowledge and the necessary sources; the Magazine edits the content and prepares it for publication.
This is the full package, for 12 months:
Founding price
752,00 €/ month net
Standard price
1020,00 €/ month net
Pay in one instalment and 2 months are free.
The price shown is net — 23% VAT is added to the amount payable.
What would the same cost purchased item by item?
The visibility elements of the package are also listed individually in the Magazine's advertising and partner rate cards. Here is how 12 months looks at list price:
| Item | Quantity | Net list price |
|---|---|---|
| Edited professional content12 × 329,00 € | 12 × 329,00 € | 3948,00 € |
| Newsletter appearance12 × 99,00 € | 12 × 99,00 € | 1188,00 € |
| Rotating banner campaign, 7 days12 × 59,00 € | 12 × 59,00 € | 708,00 € |
| Your own featured profile page1 × 949,00 € | 1 × 949,00 € | 949,00 € |
| Priceable visibility value over 12 months | 6793,00 € | |
And what cannot be bought separately
- 12 months of category exclusivity (guaranteed with annual up-front payment)
- 12 social media appearances on the Magazine's channels
- A partner badge in your name and category, plus a featured spot on the category page
- A jointly built 12-month content schedule
The Magazine does not sell category exclusivity in any other package. You are not buying ad space: you are buying that nobody else gets this place in your category. If you want that locked in for 12 months, pay the year in one sum.
List prices come from the Magazine's current banner rate card and partner package values. Anything that cannot be bought separately was deliberately left unestimated — it is not included in the total.

Introductory price — for a limited time
Both prices include the same complete package; the founding price differs only in being cheaper — the difference is where you are in the queue. With either price, the guarantee of category exclusivity depends on how you pay: it requires annual up-front payment.

Prices will rise soon
The programme is currently available at an introductory price. The fees shown here will rise once the introductory period closes. The founding fee is available to a maximum of 8 accepted partners and may close earlier once the places are filled.
Do not wait until someone else claims your category or the introductory price ends.
Free category check · No payment details required · No obligation
The price shown is net — 23% VAT is added to the amount payable.
The programme is a fixed 12-month engagement; monthly payment is payment by instalments, not a subscription you can cancel month to month. Category exclusivity is guaranteed when the annual fee is paid in one sum — see below for the terms that apply to instalment payment.
Whether exclusivity is guaranteed depends on how you pay
- Annual fee in one sum: guaranteed exclusivity. Your category is yours for the full 12 months and no offer can break it during the term.
- Monthly instalments (including the founding option): we will not sell the category to anyone else and you appear as the sole expert partner — but in this form we cannot guarantee exclusivity. If someone else pays the annual fee in one sum for the same category, your place can be displaced.
- Even then you do not lose your position without warning: we notify you in writing and you have 15 days to switch to annual up-front payment yourself. If you do, you keep your place and take priority over the applicant — the instalments you have already paid are credited. If you do not, the position ends with two months' notice; no exit fee applies and any fee paid for the unused period is refunded.
If you want certainty: paying for the year up front is the answer.
This rule appears word for word in clause 2.2.b of the individual partner agreement — the website and the contract say the same thing.
What happens if you apply now?
Applying is the first step, not the decision. The fee only comes up once both sides say yes.
We ask for no payment details
There is no card number and no payment on the form. Submitting it triggers no charge whatsoever.
The check and the interview are free
We check whether your category is free and go through your professional background in an online conversation. We charge nothing for this.
The decision comes after the conversation
A payment obligation arises only after acceptance and signature of the contract. Until then you can say no at any time — and we may also decline if there is no professional fit.
How to claim your category
You mark your professional category
In the preliminary application you select the category you want to associate with your name or your business.
We book a time for a professional interview
In an online conversation we get to know your professional background, your experience and how your knowledge relates to the chosen category. We also check professional and ethical fit here.
We reserve the category for you
After acceptance and signing, we reserve it for you for 12 months.
Acceptance of an application is subject to individual professional and ethical review.
Choose your professional category
One active Professional Category Partner can appear per category at a time. Choose the field you would like to represent.
15 of 15 categories are currently free. Only one partner can appear per category — once taken, it comes off the list.
Live figures from our database. No countdown timer and no manufactured urgency — when a category is taken, you will see it here.
What does category exclusivity mean?
During the partner period we do not accept another paid Professional Category Partner in the same category. We can guarantee this when the annual fee is paid in one sum; with monthly instalments the place is protected by a right of first refusal but is not guaranteed. None of this restricts the Magazine's independent editorial work: other professionals may still appear in articles, interviews or news.
Category exclusivity is a paid partner package element. It does not mean official, professional-chamber or editorial accreditation, and it does not claim that the partner is the only or the best professional in the given field.

We build a professional position, we do not sell a professional title
The Professional Category Partner status is a paid and clearly marked partnership. It provides category exclusivity, featured presence and regular professional appearances — the exclusivity guarantee is tied to paying the annual fee in one sum — but it is not an official accreditation.
Every application is assessed individually on professional and ethical grounds. Checking the availability of a category and the preliminary interview carry no payment obligation.
The question is not whether you would like to become more visible later. The question is whether your category will still be free then — and whether the introductory price will still be available.
Frequently asked questions
What does Professional Category Partner status mean?
A paid and labelled partner status tied to the 12-month program. It does not mean certification, official accreditation or an editorial recommendation.
What exactly does category exclusivity mean, and what makes it guaranteed?
It means we accept one active, paying Professional Category Partner per category at a time. The guarantee depends on how you pay: if you pay the annual fee in one sum, your place cannot be broken for the full 12 months. With monthly instalments the place is yours until someone applies for the same category paying the year in one sum — at that point you have a right of first refusal to switch, and you keep the position. The Magazine may still feature other professionals in independent editorial content.
Can I apply as an active networker?
If you are building your own leadership name, the Leadership Partner Program is usually the right fit. We only review applications in professional fields clearly separable from network marketing activity, and according to the rules of the category.
Who produces the content?
We plan the topics together. You provide the professional knowledge, data and sources. The Magazine's editorial team edits, reviews and approves the publication.
Does the program guarantee enquiries or clients?
No. The program builds consistent professional presence. We give no guarantee for enquiries, clients or revenue.
How does payment work?
The contract runs for 12 months. You can choose 12 monthly instalments or a single annual payment — with the latter two months are free, while the term still runs for 12 months. Monthly instalments are not a subscription that can be cancelled month by month.
What remains after the 12 months?
Published articles may remain available in the archive. The profile page, the badge and category exclusivity expire without renewal.
What if my category is taken?
You can register your interest for the waiting list or request a consultation about a more precise, professionally justified subcategory. New categories are opened only with editorial approval.
