Who We Partner With
Creators and teams with a strong concept, credible execution, and market fit. We're selective to keep outcomes high.
What We Bring
Launch strategy, creative assets (visuals, trailers), marketplace optimization (Amazon/Steam), and targeted campaigns.
How You Benefit
Low upfront cost, expert execution, and a partner motivated by the same metric you are: sales.
Plain-English Summary
You keep ownership of your product. We help launch it. We earn a percentage of revenue for a set time window. If we co-invest in ads, those costs are paid back first.
Commission & Term
- Revenue Share Standard: 25% of net revenue generated through our launch activities.
- Duration Applied for 12 months from launch date, renewable by mutual consent.
- Tiered Upside (Optional) 20% (<$25k), 25% ($25k–$100k), 30% (>$100k total sales).
- Payment Frequency Monthly or quarterly, aligned to platform reporting (e.g., Amazon, Steam).
Ad Spend Policy
- Default — Client-Funded All advertising/media spend is funded by the partner via their own ad accounts. Dark Stand manages strategy, creative, and optimization.
- Reimbursable (Selective) If Dark Stand elects to cover ad spend, ad costs are reimbursed in full from early revenue before any commission is applied.
- Co-Investment (Rare) For special cases where we fund ads, our commission may increase (e.g., up to 40–50%) or include additional rights. Terms will be explicit in your agreement.
Ownership & Attribution
- Product Ownership You retain ownership of your product. We do not claim rights to your IP unless negotiated separately.
- Creative Assets Dark Stand owns underlying creative and working files unless otherwise agreed. Final deliverables for the launch are licensed for your product.
- Attribution Listings and campaigns using our creative during the term are counted toward partnership revenue.
Transparency & Reporting
- Sales Access Partner provides access to sales dashboards or verified statements needed to calculate revenue share.
- Audit Rights Dark Stand may request reasonable proof of reported sales during the term.
Termination & Guarantees
- Early Termination Either party may end the partnership with written notice. Commissions already earned (and ad reimbursements) remain payable for the agreed term.
- No Performance Guarantee Marketing outcomes vary. We do not guarantee sales, rankings, or reviews.
- Governing Law These terms are governed by applicable U.S. law; venue and specifics are set in the definitive agreement.
