Referrals / Thanksgiving
November is the month that Thanksgiving is celebrated in the United States so we thought the theme for this month’s newsletter should be referrals. For clarity we define a referral as an introduction to a prospect from a customer or another business that is primarily inspired by their belief in your ability to help the prospect with a problem or need. Here are four articles chock full of suggestions for how to stimulate referrals.
