[October 2023] šŸ¤  What's new in Referral Rock

Good news: there's an easier, better way to promote your referral program across channels.

Welcome to the October 2023 roundup, where we share whatā€™s new in Referral Rock. šŸ¤  Other semi-monthly editions include Data Insights and Feature Updates.

Hi there,

After joining the Referral Rock team back in June, Iā€™ve been learning more about how businesses drive growth through referrals. One area that caught my attention recently: channel partnerships. I learned more about this approach in a newsletter from MKT1 about finding your marketing advantages.

If you have a product/service that can be sold through third-party groups such as accountants, lawyers, agencies, or other service providers, consider starting a channel partner program to incentivize these groups. You can do this by giving partners a percentage of the sale or offering a discount to customers who purchase through them ā€” or both, depending on the audience.Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā 

Think your business could benefit from channel partnerships? Read more about how they work in this guide, or check out this case study about how SIR Glass unlocked 30+ new sales a month with a partner program.Ā Ā 

And with that, onto what we shipped this month. šŸ˜€
