Real-World Example (UK Scenario)

• • Let’s say you refer a restaurant in Manchester via an affiliate link and earn a £30 one-time commission.
• • But if you run a white-label version of FoodChow and sign up 20 restaurants charging £100/month, that’s £2,000/month in recurring income, plus upsell potential like menu updates, email marketing, or WhatsApp ordering.
• • A franchise may generate £5,000–£10,000/month with strong brand backing — but needs capital.
• • A reseller might earn £500–£2,000/month with lower investment, but less long-term ownership.
