Referral Boost Overview

Turn Your Happy Customers into Your Best Sales Team

Referral Boost is a contact-based email marketing tool that helps you turn your existing contact list (happy customers!) into new Advocates. Each contact is assigned a unique personal referral link and receives branded emails encouraging them to share it with friends. When a referral converts, the contact automatically becomes an Advocate.

What You Can Do with Referral Boost

  • Upload contacts manually, CSV bulk upload, or via API
  • Assign personal referral links to each contact
  • Customize referral emails, landing pages, and thank-you pages
  • Send emails in bulk or individually
  • Automatically upgrade contacts to Advocates when referrals convert
  • Send a welcome SMS to new Advocates (optional)
