The verdict in three sentences
Clinics, dental practices and opticians have real budget and an acute need for online credibility: this is the health segment where a referral partner maximises commission. A Premium clinic website at 1,200,000 FCFA with booking earns 180,000 FCFA + 5 % recurring, versus 37,500 FCFA for a small restaurant. The cycle is longer (3 to 8 weeks) but ticket and recurring more than compensate.
Why health pays more
Patients choose a clinic partly on trust: a professional site, practitioner profiles, confidentiality and online booking justify the Premium tier and therefore a fatter commission.
| Establishment type | Recommended tier | 2026 ticket | Partner commission 15 % |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dental practice | Growth | 500,000 FCFA | 75,000 FCFA |
| Optician | Growth | 500,000 FCFA | 75,000 FCFA |
| Medical practice | Premium | 1,200,000 FCFA | 180,000 FCFA |
| General clinic | Premium | 1,200,000 FCFA | 180,000 FCFA |
| Analysis lab | Premium | 1,200,000 FCFA | 180,000 FCFA |
Practitioner profiles, online booking and patient-data confidentiality are exactly what tips a health client toward Premium, where a restaurant stays on Growth.
Sales cycle and recurring value
Health demands patience but retains: a clinic that invests in its site stays a client for maintenance and upgrades.
| Indicator | Restaurant | Clinic |
|---|---|---|
| Cycle length | 1 to 3 weeks | 3 to 8 weeks |
| Average ticket | 500,000 FCFA | 1,200,000 FCFA |
| Conversion rate | ~8 % | ~5 % |
| Unit commission | 75,000 FCFA | 180,000 FCFA |
| Monthly maintenance | 40,000 FCFA | 90,000 FCFA |
| Recurring 5 % / month | 2,000 FCFA | 4,500 FCFA |
Fewer deals, but each signature is worth more than double and generates higher recurring: a health portfolio builds slowly then pays durably.
Mini case study
Sylvie, a referral partner, targets practices and clinics. She signs 2 clinics/month on Premium at 1,200,000 FCFA. Her commission: 180,000 x 2 = 360,000 FCFA/month. Over a year, 24 active clinics generate 4,500 FCFA recurring each, i.e. an extra 108,000 FCFA/month of passive income. With half the signatures of a food partner, she exceeds their income thanks to the Premium ticket.

FAQ
Why target health rather than retail?
Because the average ticket doubles (1,200,000 vs 500,000 FCFA) and the recurring is higher. Two health signings equal in revenue more than four restaurant signings.
Is the longer cycle a problem?
No, if you keep feeding your pipeline. While one clinic deliberates, you prospect others; signatures end up overlapping each month.
Which arguments for a clinic?
Online booking, practitioner profiles, patient reviews and data confidentiality. These reassure patients and justify the Premium tier.
How much does a dental practice earn?
On Growth at 500,000 FCFA the commission is 75,000 FCFA plus 5 % recurring. On Premium with booking it rises to 180,000 FCFA.
Do I need medical skills?
None. You are a referral partner: you introduce the service, Kolonell handles all the technical work and health-specific content.
