The problem
Your happiest customers know your next customers. Asking them well, at the right time, is the step that always slips.
How your agent runs it
- Read your contacts and CRM and your connected Gmail history for customers with real evidence of a positive outcome.
- Exclude unresolved complaints, suppressed contacts and anyone already asked recently.
- Email the agreed number of eligible customers one personal request for a specific introduction to someone who fits: what you describe.
- Never invent praise, offer unapproved rewards or contact referred people without a suitable introduction.
- Record sent requests; count referrals only after a real introduction arrives.
What you tell it
- What you offer
- For example: Bookkeeping for startups, first month free
- Who you want an introduction to
- For example: Founders who just raised a seed round
What counts as done
- 5 requested actions completed with verified evidence and any shortfall clearly reported.
