Offer an easy reward both sides understand — a discount for the referrer and the new customer, or a free personalization. Simplicity drives participation.
Make It Easy to Share
Give customers something simple to pass along: a code, a card, or a quick message. The less friction, the more referrals you get.
Ask at the Right Moment
Request referrals right after delivering great work, when customers are happiest. A simple 'know anyone who'd love this?' goes a long way.
