Referral marketing – for enthusiastic new customers
Benefit from satisfied customers and word-of-mouth advertising
“A credible recommendation is clearly superior to any commercial. Especially in turbulent times, we lend our ear above all to those who are close to us, whom we can really trust, who share their practical experience with us benevolently: reliable recommenders. A well-founded recommendation sometimes has just magical attraction. Well sprinkled and placed in the right environment, it triggers waves of further recommendations.” (Schüller, 2006)
In active referral marketing, your customers are already fans and act autonomously in customer acquisition or referral. This is to be distinguished from “customers recruit customers” programs, which are to be managed as passive recommender programs. To motivate your customers in this area, you need to keep incentives and rewards in front of them. For every recommendation they make, there is a reward. Here, the way does not matter: whether points, discounts, vouchers or direct value gifts – your customers will be happy to refer other customers.
Referral marketing creates a much closer way of advertising through testimonials and positive reviews.
also for your referral marketing!
With so much competition in the market, it is very important to attract walk-in customers as repeat customers. In addition to direct customer loyalty systems, referral marketing is playing an increasingly important role, as positive recommendations and calls to buy are made free of charge for the company.
As a potential new customer you get honest tips from trusted people, as a company you benefit from the crucial trust bonus. In addition, a customer who acts as a positive recommender has a very high credibility for a new customer. Thus, a qualified recommendation is the most effective form of new customer acquisition. Create a new form of referral business through targeted marketing campaigns and word of mouth.
