Referrals are the best ways to get new clients and boost your business. There are some who gets lot of referrals and there are few who just get 1 or none.

Give referral to earn referral

idea posted by Navneet Rai Sales/BD Manager, Infosys
Everyone thinks on how to get referral. I feel we should think opposite and give them referral, giving referral will be rewarding as the someone who gets will give one or the other to you.

Well MR.Rai, you are right we just ask referral and don't provide any. If we can offer them with referrals as per their needs then they will think that we care for them,,in turn they will reward us with new clients.

Thank and update them

idea posted by Kushal Das Sales/BD Manager, SAP

Once you get referrals from one of your customers/clients, thank them saying how it helped the company and the client whom he/she referred. This can bring in more referrals from them.

yes we should always thank them for every single referrals they make. But updating them with what happen is better than just saying thank you... If the Clients they have referred is not worth , they may refer someone better than him...

Ask for referrals

I feel most business owners don't do it enough. It can be the most valuable part of the business transaction, even more important than taking the order. A lot of people are not comfortable coming out and asking for referrals. To get referrals ask for referrals, simple as that.
