How To Generate More Referrals
We live in a world of instant gratification. Everybody is concerned about their own needs. Therefore, website owners must take the necessary steps to make sure their viral marketing program generates free traffic.
Here’s why your referral program may not be working…
Website owners must work extremely hard to convince their visitors to invite their friends. The average person hardly has enough time for him or herself.
Unless you are dangling a pretty good incentive out there that pushes your customers’ instant gratification button, guess what? You’re going to find that many of your otherwise loyal buyers aren’t going to take time to contact their circle of friends and help you make a sale.
Offering cash incentives may seem like a could idea, but…
Let’s face it, everybody likes money. However, offering cash in exchange for referrals may not be your best option. Most people feel uneasy about making money from their friends.
Automatic Redirect To The Rescue
Imagine this scenario, somebody arrives at your website, they invite their friends, and you instantly gift them.
And better yet, what if you could reward them instantly? No waiting, no fuss, no muss. Your customers provide you with referrals and you instantly reward them with something of value that doesn’t hit you hard in your bank account.
Automation is crucial. You want everything to happen behind the scenes. You will set up your referral program only once, and never worry again.
Now imagine, a program so amazing, that it persuaded those visiting your website, to import their entire web mail account, and tell all their friends about your online business
That is EXACTLY the way that web sites like MySpace? and FaceBook? work. They have their own “Friend” adding programs that have been wildly responsible for building huge membership lists in a very short time.
