Different Customer Referral options

There are multiple customer referral options available including Facebook notification invite, Email Invite, Facebook chat message, Facebook share, tweet and LinkedIn share. The customer can also share his custom referral link with anyone over chat. Below we explain each customer referral option in detail.

1. Customer referral option – Facebook Share

Customers can seamlessly share their referral links on Facebook. The referral feed appears on their friends’ Facebook newsfeeds. The friend would click on the feed to come to the referral program landing page. Facebook customer referral feed generally is visible to the closest 20-50% of the friends on Facebook. If I have 300 friends then it would be seen by up to 150 of my closest friends. Below is a sample feed.

2. Customer referral tweet

Customers can seamlessly tweet their referral links on Twitter.  Customer referral tweets will be visible to all Twitter followers. Brands can customize the tweet text via the campaign edit section. Here is how a sample tweet looks.

3. Email Invite

Customers can invite friends through email as well. The content of the email invite should be minimum and focus on the brand core offering, and the call to action referral button. Invitereferrals allow customers to directly import all the email contacts and send them invites.
