How to Increase Customer Referrals

Marketing Strategy — Tue., Jan. 31, 2023

Customer referrals are powerful tools for sales and marketing, as people trust the opinions of family and friends more than company messaging. Companies like Purple and Emotive have implemented customer referral programs to reward customers for referring friends and colleagues.
