I'm guessing we're in the same boat when in comes to new business, eh? Referrals for you, too? I thought it would be fun to get your ideas about how you ask for referrals. Here are a few of mine to get us started.


  • When I send invoices, I always include a line that says, "We appreciate your business and your referrals." Works great.

  • I have a corporate account at Starbucks, and I like to send a Starbucks gift card to folks who mention my name to others.

  • I have partnership agreements with pros who share my market but aren't competitors. Everybody wins - love this!

Okay, enough about me. What works for you?
