Want More Referrals?
One of the most important things someone can share with you is a referral. It means the referring party feels strongly in your ability to help the person being referred. To make the most of the referrals YOU get, you should:
1. Respond IMMEDIATELY to the person who was referred to you.
We are a society of wanters of instant gratification. Leads that are hot hot hot today will be gone gone gone tomorrow- to some other supplier.
2. THANK the person who sent you the referral and TELL them what your
course of action was with the referral.
3. TELL the person referred to you of other happy clients- these would be references for you.
Be sure you have selected a couple of clients and ask their permission to refer people to them for a reference. By TELLING the person who sent you the referral of your course of action, they will be comfortable sending you more referrals. By TELLING the referred person about other happy clients THEY will be more comfortable doing business with you- and then referring others your way.
