Spawned provides an AI-powered platform that makes building fast, simple, and accessible to everyone.
Why a Token Makes Sense for Your Consulting Platform
A token transforms your consulting platform from a service into an ecosystem.
For consulting creators, building a sustainable business often relies on recurring clients and community trust. A platform token creates a shared economic interest. Unlike traditional SaaS models with monthly subscriptions, a token allows your most engaged community members to participate directly in the platform's growth. Every consultation booked, every piece of content consumed, and every new member referral can be tied to token utility. On Spawned, you start earning 0.30% from every token trade immediately upon launch, creating a revenue stream from day one that scales with platform activity. This aligns your success with your holders' success.
Token Platform vs. Traditional Consulting Models
How does launching a token compare to standard consulting business models?
Traditional Consulting / SaaS Platform
- Revenue Model: Hourly rates, retainer fees, or monthly SaaS subscriptions ($29-99+/month).
- Client Relationship: Transactional; value exchange ends with payment.
- Community Incentive: Limited; discounts or loyalty programs are common.
- Platform Funding: Relies on your own capital or investor funding.
- Barrier to Entry: High client acquisition costs and ongoing marketing spend.
Token-Based Consulting Platform
- Revenue Model: 0.30% fee on all token trades, plus potential utility fees (e.g., token-gated consultations).
- Client Relationship: Aligned; clients become holders and benefit from platform growth.
- Community Incentive: 0.30% of trade volume distributed to all token holders automatically.
- Platform Funding: Perpetual 1% fee post-launchpad funds development via Token-2022 program.
- Barrier to Entry: 0.1 SOL launch cost includes your platform website via AI builder.
The key difference is alignment. A traditional model sells your time. A token model builds an asset where your community's support directly contributes to its—and your—value.
Step-by-Step: Launch Your Consulting Platform Token
The entire launch process is streamlined into five simple steps.
Follow these steps to go from idea to live token in under 30 minutes.
- Connect Wallet & Define Your Token: Go to Spawned.com and connect your Solana wallet (like Phantom). Enter your token's name and symbol (e.g., CONSULT, ADVIZOR). This represents your consulting platform's brand.
- Set Initial Supply & Description: Define the total token supply. For a consulting platform, consider a supply that allows for meaningful holder rewards and future community growth. Write a clear description of your platform's purpose—what consulting services you offer, your vision, and the token's role.
- Configure Creator & Holder Fees: The platform pre-sets the optimal fees: you earn 0.30%, and holders earn 0.30%. These are automatic and require no further management.
- Build Your Platform Website Instantly: Use the integrated AI website builder. Describe your consulting niche (e.g., "web3 marketing consultancy" or "smart contract auditing services"), and the AI generates a professional site. This saves you $29-99/month on separate website hosting and design tools.
- Review & Launch: Pay the 0.1 SOL launch fee (approximately $20). Your token is created and live on the Solana blockchain, and your website is published. You can immediately share your token page and new website link with your community to start building liquidity.
Post-Launch: Building Token Utility for Your Platform
After launch, the real work begins: integrating the token into your consulting platform's ecosystem. Here are concrete utility ideas:
- Token-Gated Consultations: Offer premium, one-on-one consulting slots exclusively to token holders. This creates direct demand.
- Community Governance: Use token ownership to vote on platform decisions, like which new consulting verticals to add or content topics to cover.
- Revenue Share Access: Distribute a portion of your platform's consultation revenue (beyond the 0.30% trade rewards) to token holders on a quarterly basis.
- Discounted Service Tiers: Provide tiered discounts on consulting packages based on the amount of tokens held.
- Early Access & Whitelists: Grant token holders first access to new course materials, research reports, or partner deals.
The 0.30% ongoing reward to holders provides a baseline incentive for holding. Layering these specific utilities on top turns your token into a functional key for your platform's best offerings.
Understanding the Fee Structure: From Launch to Perpetual Funding
The fee model creates a three-way value loop: creator revenue, holder rewards, and platform funding.
Spawned's fee model is designed for long-term platform sustainability. Let's trace the journey of a 1 SOL trade on your consulting platform token.
At Launch (On Spawned Launchpad): A user buys 1 SOL worth of your token. From that trade:
- 0.30% (0.003 SOL) is sent directly to your creator wallet as revenue.
- 0.30% (0.003 SOL) is distributed proportionally to every token holder as a reward. This happens instantly, funding you and rewarding your community from the first transaction.
After Graduation (Via Token-2022): Once your token gains significant traction, it can "graduate." At this point, Spawned implements a 1.00% perpetual fee on all trades using Solana's Token-2022 standard. This 1% is separate from the creator/holder rewards. Its purpose is to fund the ongoing development and maintenance of your consulting platform—think of it as a built-in treasury for marketing, new features, or hiring additional consultants.
This structure ensures you are paid for creating value, your community is rewarded for believing in it, and your platform has a mechanism for future growth.
Is a Token Right for Your Consulting Business?
Launching a consulting platform token is a strategic decision, not just a technical one. Consider this path if:
- You have an established audience or client base ready to engage on a deeper level.
- Your consulting model can benefit from community feedback and co-creation.
- You want to build a scalable asset beyond trading hours for dollars.
- The idea of sharing success with your earliest supporters aligns with your values.
It may be less suitable if you prefer a purely transactional, one-off client relationship with no community element.
For most consulting creators looking to build a lasting brand and platform, the token model offers a powerful tool for alignment, funding, and growth. The low entry cost (0.1 SOL + built-in website) makes it a low-risk experiment with high potential upside.

Frequently Asked Questions
The launch fee is a fixed 0.1 SOL (approximately $20, depending on SOL price). This one-time fee covers the token creation on Solana and the generation of your AI-built consulting platform website. There are no monthly fees for the launchpad service or the basic website hosting.
You earn a 0.30% fee on every single buy and sell transaction of your token. This revenue is automatic and sent directly to your connected wallet. For example, if there is 1000 SOL in trading volume, you earn 3 SOL. This creates a passive income stream tied directly to the activity and interest in your consulting platform.
Holder rewards are a unique feature where 0.30% of every trade is distributed to everyone holding your token. This happens automatically on-chain. It incentivizes people to hold your token long-term, as they earn more tokens simply for being part of your community. It aligns their success with the trading volume and health of your platform.
No coding is required. The Spawned launchpad guides you through a simple form to name your token and set the supply. The AI website builder only requires you to describe your consulting services in plain English. The entire technical process of deploying the token contract and website is handled automatically.
After launch, your token is live and tradable. Your focus shifts to promoting your platform, integrating token utility (like token-gated consultations), and building liquidity. As your platform grows, the token can graduate, enabling a perpetual 1% fee that funds further platform development through the Token-2022 program.
Absolutely. The token is a tool for community building and value alignment. Your consulting could be in marketing, business strategy, fitness, or any field. The token allows your clients to become stakeholders. The AI website builder can create a site for any niche, not just crypto-related topics.
A traditional membership site locks revenue to monthly subscriptions. A token creates a liquid, tradeable asset that can appreciate in value. Your community isn't just paying for access; they own a piece of the ecosystem. The 0.30% holder rewards also provide a continuous benefit that standard membership models don't offer.
The AI website builder is included in the launch process and generates a professional website for your consulting platform based on a short description. It's not strictly necessary, but it saves significant time and money (typically $29-99/month for website tools). It provides an immediate, branded home for your services that you can link to your token page.
