Free teleclass: How to Get More Referrals

by Samantha Hartley on April 7, 2008

A few weeks ago I polled my ezine subscribers about which areas of marketing they’d most like to improve.  The #1 concern was “Getting more referrals.”

So, I’m happy to announce that my first monthly free teleclass – to be held every third Tuesday at 9 am PST / 12 noon EST – will be “How to Get More Referrals.” It happens on Tuesday, April 15th!

There are a few big, obvious ways to increase referrals, as well as some little-known secrets the pros use to open doors.  I’ll share both kinds on this call.  You’ll also learn:

  • Exactly what to say when asking
  • When are the best time to ask
  • Behaviors that encourage satisfied clients to refer you
  • Special techniques for the shy, reluctant and introverted

To sign up for this call, just fill out this form. Again, it’s free.

[form removed since the class is over and form was causing mischief!]

Some have wondered if this free call will be a thinly-veiled promotion for something.  The answer is no – that’s not my style.  Sure, you’ll hear a short commercial and maybe get a special offer, but mostly there will be a wealth of ideas about how to grow your business.

And now, a question for you:

What’s your single, most important question about getting more referrals?

I want to be sure we cover what you want to know.  Please post your question in the comments area.

How do I persuade patients who are thrilled with their progress to share with others?

What are ways to entice professionals to make referrals with incentives other than (or in addition to) a referral fee?

Thank you, Gloria. Great questions. I look forward to covering those on the call.

How do you ask for referrals without making the customer (guest in our case) feel pressured or obligated?

Samantha Hartley April 15, 2008 at 12:47 am

Richard, that’s a good one. Thanks for asking.

I never know the best way to reward or thank people for referrals (especially clients.) What’s your thought on giving gifts or paying for referrals?
