The importance of referrals in a business can never be overestimated. When I used to sell a huge product, it would be considered just as much a victory to get a list of 20 to 30 names from the customer as it would to make a sale. It was considered a job half done if we sold the product but left without the names. The referrals were the lifeblood of the company.
To that end, ReferNow.com exists to help businesses build up a robust, healthy referral program that will help to take your business to new heights.
How it works is it's based upon rewarding and giving incentives to people for recommending your business. They can receive valuable products, services, even CASH.
You don't have to be concerned about the privacy of your customer either as they're protected by having their email remain completely private.
It goes like this: People who like your business select you and then type out a note telling their friends how it could help them. From their it is emailed right back to the person where they can forward it to whoever they want, protecting their privacy. From there they can track it to see how it spreads!
For businesses ReferNow has a simple three-step process to get you going on generating referrals.
1. You can create your own customized reward program using a simple set-up wizard. It takes around 30 minutes to complete on average.
