The Value Stack

Choosing a brokerage partner isn't just
a business decision.
It's a network upgrade.

When you join with Damian as your co-sponsor, you don't just get his 20+ years and 700+ sold homes. You get access to 7 tiers of active, invested leaders, each bringing a distinct skillset, live training, and resources you can deploy immediately. This is the value stack.

Co-Sponsorship Model

How you get the best of all worlds.

eXp's co-sponsorship structure is one of the most misunderstood, and most powerful, features of the platform. Here's exactly how it works.

The Structure

Co-Sponsor (T1)
Damian Forrester
Your local Montana mentor, directly invested in your production growth
↕
Primary Sponsor (T2)
Liz Crews
The Crew, social media, Diamond Club, brand package, hands-on mentorship
↕
You
The Agent
Access to the value stack of both sponsors + their 5 uplines above

What this means for you

With co-sponsorship, revenue share flows through the primary sponsor's line. But the value you receive — training, mentorship, resources, and community — comes from both sponsors, plus their entire upline above them.

You're not picking one person and losing the other. You get both networks, both skill sets, and everything stacked above them.

Co-Sponsorship Benefits

  • Honor multiple relationships, no forced choice
  • Local Montana support from Damian
  • National network reach from Liz's platform
  • Resources for brand new agents through to top producers
  • Help to overcome the "messy middle" and scale
  • Path to time and financial freedom from both sides
"Your sponsorship should provide ongoing value, not just a one-time perk. Your sponsor should be who influenced you the most." — eXp Co-Sponsorship Principles

Important Things to Know About Sponsorship

1
You can't change your sponsor(s) later. Choose with intention. This is a permanent decision, which is exactly why the value stack matters so much.
2
You can join a team unaffiliated with your sponsors. Sponsorship and team membership are separate. You get the upline value stack regardless of which team you join.
3
Sponsorship has no impact on specialty divisions. Want to join Luxury, Land & Ranch, New Homes, Sports & Entertainment, or Commercial? Your sponsorship doesn't affect that.
4
Your sponsor should provide ongoing value, not just a one-time perk. Every person in this upline is actively coaching, training, and producing. This isn't a passive network.
5
Your sponsor should be who influenced you most to join eXp. Not necessarily the first person who mentioned it, the person whose vision for your career actually moved you.
6
Everyone in your 7-level upline is directly partnered with you. They succeed when you succeed. That's not a tagline, it's literally how the revenue share structure is designed.

The Revenue Math

Where the money actually comes from.

Revenue share isn't magic. It's mechanics. Here's the exact math, so you understand it completely before you make the move.

How a $10,000 commission breaks down

Commission Earned
$10,000
↓
Agent keeps (80%)
$8,000
Goes to eXp (20%)
$2,000
↓ eXp splits their $2,000
eXp keeps (50% of their cut)
$1,000
Revenue Share Pool (50% of eXp's cut)
$1,000

That $1,000 is distributed across 7 tiers of the attracting agent's upline. Never taken from the agent's $8,000.

Revenue share breakdown by tier

Tier Pool % $10K Agent Capping Agent

* Front Line Agent First Year bonus: T1 earns 50% of rev share pool in year one. Remaining pool distributed as bonus to T1–T3.

The key point: Revenue share is paid from eXp's portion, never from the attractee's commission. The agent always keeps their 80% (or 100% after cap).

The Decision Is Permanent

Choose your sponsor once.
Choose well.

You can't change sponsors later. That's not a scare tactic, it's the reason this decision deserves real research. Damian and Liz have built a value stack that compounds over time. One call will make it clear.
