SET YOUR EXPECTATIONS
● 10%-15% of all sales coming from referrals is a sustainable long-term goal.
● You should be able to 2x performance in 3-6mo○ Don’t get discouraged.
● highest I’ve ever seen is 60% of sales, but it eventually got eaten by paid advertising
● WOMA will always have some untrackable component

Part 1: Getting Shares
1. Build an Offer2. Pick Placements
3. Optimize Share Channels4. Reward for Good Behavior
![Page 18: Referral - CXL...2017/03/10 · 9. Thou shalt keep the advocate in the loop of the referral progress 10.

1. BUILD YOUR OFFER
● Don’t do single sided deals● Credits to your service for the Advocate● Reward for the types of customers you
want● Tiered Rewards ARE AWESOME● Add in TIME incentives

But, Aren’t Discounts Bad?Yes & No => wtf??
● Referrals should be the one channel where you start discounting because you’re rewarding the best behavior from the strongest customers
● Think about ways to incentivize without % off. Think Free Product, Reward on bigger purchases, etc
