INCENTIVIZE QUALITY REFERRALS TO MAKE MORE SALES
What is a Referral Program?
At least one third of the people who buy from any brand do so on the recommendation of a friend or trusted acquaintance. That fact alone makes brand advocates your greatest weapon for influencing buying decisions for your product/service. Leaving referrals up to chance or goodwill, however, is a missed opportunity. You can influence how often your referral sources think about referring your business, and the best way to do that is by launching a referral program.
A referral program is a systematic way for you to incentivize advocates of your brand to spread the word about your product or service by offering a reward or commission for referrals that turn into purchases. In doing so, you’re extending your reach well beyond your own circle of influence to obtain quality leads from trusted sources.
Why Launch a Referral Program?
Rather than simply absorbing all praise from the raving fans among your customer base, incentivize them to express their gratitude by spreading the word about your awesome product and brand.
Make Exponentially More Sales
Referral programs are effective because you’re enrolling a troop of fans, influencers and consultants who are likely to connect with your target audience to spread the word about your goods or services. With reward as an incentive, advocates are motivated to refer new customers who in turn refer new customers.

Foster Brand Advocacy
A confident recommendation of your product invites your brand into a pre-existing circle of trust between your brand advocates and those they refer. This is why referral leads are so valuable and tend to have much higher retention rates than organic leads. You’ll go from a friendly referral here and there to a vocal community of loyal advocates.
