Referral Marketing: How to Apply to Your Business
8 min read My friends often ask me for restaurant referrals. Which makes sense, given that I really enjoy going out and eating in nice places. In fact, I’ve even created my own rating system according to ambiance, taste, cost, and overall experience.
And to my happy surprise, the owner of the restaurant that I most often suggest to my friends, realized how many referrals I’ve made and decided to thank me by giving a special bottle of wine last time I visited. I was, of course, very glad by his gesture and ended up calling even more friends to go there, always telling them about this awesome experience.
This is a classic case of a win-win for all parties: I was happy, my friends had a great time, and the owner increased his revenue and won more loyal customers.
This, my friends, is Referral Marketing. And today you are going to understand once and for all how to use it for your brand.
