You don’t ask for referrals?

Sales Chart Graph Showing Increasing Profits Trade

Show me a business that doesn’t ask for referrals, and I’ll show you a business that is retarding its growth!  One of the easiest ways of exploding your sales in any business is to ask a satisfied customer for a referral.  The second easiest way is to ask your customers to recommend your business.  And by the way, sales from referrals are usually the easiest and the least expensive type of sales!  Why?  Because they have no advertising costs and typically have shorter sales cycles!

Many industries have pundits that make huge incomes teaching producers how to ask for referrals.  Why?  Because referrals increase sales significantly !  How?  They are a personal recommendation from people they already know and trust.  They are warm leads who need the same product or service as the referrer does.    Especially if you ask the right questions!

Online reviews are the online version of referrals.  Surveys show that 8 of 9 online shoppers trust online reviews as much as they do personal recommendations from friends and families and 87% of people turn to online search first to get things done.  Yet many businesses are saying they don’t need or don’t want online reviews.  If you find yourself thinking your business doesn’t need/want online reviews for your business, you might want to think again.  They are as critical to the increase in your sales as referrals and an inexpensive way of exploding your sales!

Start getting your online reviews today by contacting us at info@infuseo.com or call us at 801-999-0867 x100.
