In our life, almost all organizations and various companies are looking for numerous partners to develop their entrepreneurship. This is necessary so that they can help in advertising the company's services and, accordingly, in increasing profitability. The same thing happens in the online realm, namely the Internet. Knowledge, skill and understanding of all the subtleties in attracting referrals to your enterprise is the key to success and business development.
What is the meaning of such a thing as a referral?
To begin with, I would like to answer the following question: referral - what is it? This is a person who applied to a firm or company by invitation. It is automatically assigned to the person who invited him. This person is strongly enough interested in that people learn about the enterprise and start using its services precisely at his invitation. As a result of all this activity, he receives a certain percentage depending on the popularity of the company. In fact, there is a mutually beneficial cooperation between the referral and the invited referral. The referee must teacha brand new referral to all the main subtleties of work in the project. The referral, in turn, must conscientiously follow all instructions. Some referees are working on creating their own open or closed forum. With it, you can optimize the entire learning process.
Different levels and complexity of the referral system
Now that we understand what a referral means, we should talk about it in more detail. You can attract referrals through various affiliate programs: dating sites, copywriting exchanges, and so on. The referral system itself consists of several levels. There are multi-level systems that reach 10 levels. But the most popular are those projects that reach only 4 levels. This is due to the fact that the higher the level, the naturally lower the percentage received from income.
Recruitment of referrals is a rather complicated and time-consuming process. It is necessary to know the resource itself, namely for what purposes and to whom it is needed. This will help in finding the answer to the question: "Referral - what does this mean?" The most important thing is when attracting referrals to the enterprise, initially honestly and accurately explain to the person what he will get from work. You should never promise him mountains of gold. It is necessary to interest the beginner, because if there is no interest in work, there will be no activity. Accordingly, the income will not be too high.
What methods can I use to find referrals?
Now we need to figure it outhow to invite referrals. It must be understood that the more there are, the higher the income will be.
First of all, you should get a referral link. It is necessary for the affiliate program to be able to determine that the person came through you. The link consists of a special unique ending, usually a registration number or a member's login.
You can always look for referrals among your friends and acquaintances. You should recommend your project to them for participation. Friends, of course, will always support and trust you, but if the partnership offer fails, your relationship may deteriorate. And there will not be a large number of invitees either. You can also use pay-per-click advertising. In other words, it is possible to place links in various advertisements: contextual, banner, teaser. In this case, only interested people will register. They can be expected to be active. But there is also a negative point, because of which attracting referrals cannot be called too simple. The downside is the difficulty of analyzing those places and the public where the ad will be shown.
You can always turn to donor sites for help. There you can post various descriptions and announcements, which will detail the terms of the partnership agreement and the project itself.
Forums and bulletin boards can help you find referrals
Special forums and chats where communication takes place on a "question-answer" basis. In such places you can findinterested referrals. Also, in the process of communication on such sites, you can leave a link to your main site. The downside is that this method requires a lot of time for correspondence.
In addition, earnings on referrals are possible through the use of various ad boards. But links should be placed only on well-visited portals and in the right categories. Another good option is to send letters. But here you need to take into account the fact that, of course, no one likes spam, and you need to be careful so that you are not accused of spam and excluded from the affiliate program.
Using paid mailings
Do not forget about the presence of paid mailing lists of letters, with the help of which a referral can be found. What is this system? In this situation, users receive letters in the mail. Participants who read such messages are paid a certain amount of money. Of course, the offer will be seen by a large number of people if a project is advertised that pays for mailing letters or participating in surveys. In this case, there are many who want to earn money. But you can also lose money. It should be understood that those who only click on various sites and advertising letters work on various mail projects, they need money for viewing sites and reading letters, but not participating in any affiliate programs to sell anything. You can also pay attention to the referral exchange. There you can buy active members. But this only works on email or click sponsors.
The main risk that awaits referees
You need to prepare for the big risk that the referral carries. What does it mean? Due to the fact that referrals are most active only at the first time, a problem may arise. Over time, their interest in this type of activity disappears with them. Naturally, this does not have a very positive effect on the amount of income. Therefore, before deciding to take such a step, everything should be carefully analyzed and considered. If, nevertheless, it was decided to use this method of making a profit, you need to approach the matter thoroughly. Otherwise, nothing good and profitable will come of the venture.
