Word of mouth referrals are still the most powerful and effective method of leveraging off your existing clients to gain new clients for your business, unfortunately it is also the slowest and least consistent method. There are steps you can take to ensure you stay top of mind with your client, making it easier for them to refer your business and most important of all, make the referral reach more people. Getting your referral system right means you can save thousands on general advertising but still be able to hit the mark with attracting your ideal clientele.
The workshop aims to help you figure out how you can get more referrals from your existing client base through interactive group discussions, real life stories/experiences and practical examples. By the end of the workshop, you should walk out with a clear understanding of various types of referrals, which one is relevant to you, how to ask for referrals effectively and maybe even come up with your own unique referral idea and have it validate by the collective group.
