MANAGING PRINCIPAL OF ZOOMREFERRAL (ZOOMREFERRAL.COM).

Turn Your Old Business Files Into a $100,000 to $2,000,000+ Cash Payout.

Hi, I am JC Burrows, and I run ZoomReferral (zoomreferral.com). For over 20 years, I worked as a corporate VP of Operations. Today, I am an AI data broker on your side of the table. I help business owners get paid $100,000 to $2,000,000+ by major AI companies. They pay for copies of old records in QuickBooks, ServiceTitan, Procore, HubSpot, Slack, or Teams.

Why do AI companies pay so much? Big AI companies have read the whole public internet. Public websites do not show how a real business works day to day. They pay to learn from real job estimates, real repair schedules, and real customer calls. Closed payouts include $450,000 for a roofer, $300,000 for a builder, and $275,000 for a solar company.

You pay $0 out of pocket, and you keep 100% ownership of your company and files. An independent privacy team removes all names, emails, phone numbers, and private details before anyone sees a file. The AI buyer does the heavy IT work and pays my fee when you get paid.

Did You Get an Email from Me at ZoomReferral? Here Is Why I Wrote to You.

I help business owners get paid $100,000 to $2,000,000+ for copies of their old software files at $0 upfront cost. I run two simple programs. Program 01 is for Active Companies with 10 to 30+ staff. Program 02 is for Closed Companies and Estates with saved cloud backups.

01 · YES, THE EMAIL CAME FROM ME.

I Do Not Sell Software.

If you got a short note from JC Burrows at ZoomReferral (zoomreferral.com), I sent it to you. I am not selling you software. I will never ask you for a dime. My job is helping you get paid for old files you already own.

02 · WHY I WROTE TO YOUR COMPANY.

Real Work Beats Web Articles.

Big AI companies have already read the public internet. Public websites do not show how real businesses run day to day. They need to learn how a roofer prices a job, how a dispatcher routes 40 trucks, or how a team solves customer tickets. Your old software history is worth $100,000 to $2,000,000+.

03 · WHY MY EMAIL WAS SO SHORT.

I Respect Your Time.

I spent 20+ years running operations, so I know your inbox is busy. I keep my notes short so you can check if you qualify in 60 seconds. You can also watch my 7-minute video at zoomreferral.com/briefing whenever you are free.

04 · HOW YOUR PRIVACY IS PROTECTED.

Your Safety Comes First.

  • ✓ Zero files uploaded: You never upload files during the 60-second check.
  • ✓ Two-way NDA: You sign a strict NDA with the buyer before any sample review.
  • ✓ Independent privacy scrub: A privacy team removes all names, emails, phone numbers, and bank details.
  • ✓ You keep 100% ownership and pay $0 out of pocket.

02 · WHY AI COMPANIES WANT YOUR DATA.

Why Big AI Companies Need Your Past Business Records—And Why They Pay So Much.

AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini have already read the public internet. Now they have hit a wall. Public websites do not show how real companies work behind closed doors. The only way AI can learn real business skills is by studying real work records.

BUYER GROUP 1 · MAJOR AI LABS.

Teaching AI How Teams Solve Problems.

Major AI labs want to teach their models how real teams solve problems across different tools. They study how a problem in Slack leads to an email in Gmail and a paid invoice.

Who Qualifies: Active businesses (25–500+ staff) and closed estates (50+ peak staff) with 2+ years of files.
BUYER GROUP 2 · TRADE & INDUSTRY AI BUILDERS.

Teaching AI Real Trade Pricing & Dispatch.

Software builders are making AI tools for construction, roofing, HVAC, trucking, and insurance. No website has 5 years of real ServiceTitan jobs, Procore logs, Samsara routes, or call recordings.

Who Qualifies: U.S. trade, service, and mid-size companies (10–500+ staff, 2–3+ years of history).
WIN 01 · CASH IN THE BANK.

You get $100,000 to $2,000,000+ in cash for old files sitting on your servers. You sell zero equity and take on zero debt.

Get Software Money Back.

You have paid thousands of dollars to ServiceTitan, Procore, Salesforce, or QuickBooks. I help you turn those sunk bills into cash.

WIN 03 · PRE-SALE CASH BONUS.

Extra Cash Before Selling.

If you sell your business later, normal buyers pay $0 extra for old chat or email logs. You can pull that cash out right now.

WIN 04 · CLOSED COMPANIES.

Cash From Closed Businesses.

For bankruptcy trustees and founders of closed businesses, old cloud backups carry zero risk. They turn into fast cash before accounts are deleted.

03 · TWO DATA PARTNERSHIP PROGRAMS.

Pick the Program That Fits Your Company.

I match your company with active AI buyers across the U.S. and 10 Western countries. Many U.S. businesses qualify for both buyer desks at once. That means two major AI buyers compete for your files so you get the highest payout.

PROGRAM 01 · ACTIVE BUSINESSES. $100,000 – $2,000,000+.

Enterprise Data Partnership.

I help active businesses get paid for copies of their old work files, chats, CRM notes, and job logs. This works for trades like roofing, building, solar, HVAC, and trucking, as well as office companies.

PROGRAM 02 · CLOSED COMPANIES & ESTATES. $100,000 – $2,000,000+.

  • ✓ U.S. Direct Estate Desk: 10–49 peak U.S. staff with 3+ years of saved CRM, accounting, or chat backups.
  • ✓ Who Can Sign: Former Founders, Managing Partners, Chapter 7 or 11 Trustees, and Receivers.

05 · HOW IT WORKS.

How Your Data Is Valued, Protected, and Paid in 4 Steps.

I know it takes real trust to share your business files. That is why I protect your privacy from day one. Neither I nor any AI engineer ever sees your private customer details.

STEP 01 · 60 SECONDS.

Quick Check.

You answer 7 quick questions on this site about your staff count and software tools. You do not upload any files. You can click “Not sure” on exact counts.

Your Privacy: 0 Files Uploaded.
STEP 02 · 1–2 WEEKS.

2-Way NDA & Offer.

I introduce you directly to the AI buyer under a strict 2-way NDA. The buyer checks a tiny sample and sends you a written cash offer.

Legal Safety: 2-Way NDA Signed.
STEP 03 · DAYS 11–18.

Privacy Scrub.

Once you accept the offer, the buyer's team pulls a read-only backup. An independent privacy team removes all names, emails, phone numbers, and private details.

IT Time Needed: Under 45 Minutes.
STEP 04 · PAYDAY.

Bank Wire Sent.

Once the privacy scrub is complete, the buyer wires $100,000 to $2,000,000+ straight to your bank account. The buyer pays my fee directly.

Payment: Bank Wire ($100K–$2M+).
GREEN PILE · WORK STEPS.

What AI Buyers Keep.

Buyers keep the real work steps. This includes how jobs are priced, how trucks are routed, how code is written, and how tickets are solved.

AMBER PILE · COMPANY NAMES.

Swapped With Labels.

Client names, vendor names, and project titles are swapped with simple tags like [CLIENT_A]. Nobody sees who you worked with.

RED PILE · PRIVATE DETAILS.

Erased Forever.

Names, Social Security numbers, phone numbers, emails, street addresses, passwords, and bank numbers are completely erased before any AI team sees a file.

06 · WHO YOU ARE WORKING WITH.

Why Business Owners and Trustees Work With Me Directly.

When six- or seven-figure business data deals are on the table, you do not want a pushy software salesperson. You need someone who has sat in your chair, knows how companies run, and protects your business.

01 · 20+ YEARS AS A VP OF OPERATIONS.

I Speak Plain Business English.

I spent over 20 years running operations, managing budgets, and handling legal and insurance risk. I talk in plain English and know what owners, CFOs, and lawyers care about.

02 · HANDS-ON WITH AI SINCE 2018.

I Know How AI Buyers Value Files.

Five years before ChatGPT came out, I was already building real AI tools for businesses. I know how AI buyers price data, how they train models, and how to scrub private details.

03 · I SIT ON YOUR SIDE OF THE TABLE.

I Work For You, Paid by the Buyers.

I run ZoomReferral and bring two major AI buyer desks to compete for your files. Because they compete, you get a higher payout, and you never pay me a dime.

07 · FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

Clear Answers to Common Questions.

Here are the top questions business owners, CFOs, and trustees ask me when we first talk.

1. Why are AI companies paying $100,000 to $2,000,000+ for old company records? +
AI companies have already read the public internet. Public websites only have articles and ads, not how real businesses run day to day. To build AI that can help real companies, they pay to study real work history. They want to see how an estimator prices a job in ServiceTitan, how a builder logs work in Procore, or how a team solves tickets in Slack.
2. Do I keep 100% ownership of our data? +
Yes, you do. You keep 100% ownership of all your business data and files. You only grant a license to train private AI models. You keep using your software every day, sell zero equity, and can work with two buyers to get paid more.
3. How is our customer and employee privacy protected? Will our info ever show up in ChatGPT? +
Never. Before any AI engineer sees your files, an independent privacy team scrubs out 100% of personal details. Every customer name, employee name, email, phone number, street address, and bank account is removed forever. Your files are used only to train private AI models and never show up in public chat answers.
4. How much time will this take my internal IT team? +
It takes under 45 minutes total. Checking if you qualify takes 60 seconds and requires zero file uploads. If you accept a written cash offer, the buyer's engineers pull a read-only cloud backup with your permission. Your daily work is never slowed down.
5. What types of businesses qualify for the $100K–$2M+ programs? +
For Active Businesses, buyers look for 10 to 500+ staff and 2 to 3+ years of records in tools like Slack, Teams, QuickBooks, HubSpot, Salesforce, ServiceTitan, Procore, Samsara, or CallRail. For Closed Companies and Estates, buyers look for 10 to 50+ peak staff with saved cloud backups.
6. Why does connecting more than one software tool increase the payout? +
When you link multiple tools—like team chat, CRM, and work email—the AI sees the full story of how a job got done from start to finish. Buyers pay 2x to 4x more for linked systems, as shown by our $640,000 offer benchmark.
7. How are you connected to ZoomReferral, and what does this cost me? +
I am the Managing Principal of ZoomReferral (zoomreferral.com), our video briefing portal. You never pay me anything upfront ($0). Like a real estate broker, the AI buyer pays my fee when your deal closes and funds. If you do not get paid, I do not get paid.
8. Can Bankruptcy Trustees or Founders of shut-down startups legally sell old software data? +
Yes. Old software and email backups are legal business assets under state law and Chapter 7/11 bankruptcy rules (11 U.S.C. § 363). Because the business is closed, there is zero competitive risk. The cash goes straight to creditors or founders before cloud companies delete the accounts.
