I used to think a referral program would feel too pushy or transactional — maybe you’ve felt that way too. But after a decade of relying on informal thank-you gifts, I finally created a formal program that’s brought in over $25K in just a few months… and it feels really good on all sides.
In this episode, I share how I built a simple, AUTHENTIC referral system based on real feedback from my favorite referrers — and how you can do the same to grow your business with ease, integrity, and favorite clients on repeat!
🎯 You’ll Learn:
- Why your best referral partners may not want a reward at all
- How I use a “Treasure Box” approach to keep things flexible and values-aligned
- The exact system I use to stay top of mind (without bugging anyone)
