Goal: Find the people most likely to generate referrals.

- receives strong results
- part of an active network
Exercise: Create a list of: 5–10 ideal clients
These become the referral seed group.
Step 2 — The Check-In Strategy
(10 minutes)
The outreach message is not a referral request.
Instead, it is a relationship check-in.
Example script: “Hi [Name], I was reviewing some of the businesses we’ve worked with recently and your name came to mind. I wanted to check in and see how things are going since we last worked together.”
Purpose:
- reconnect naturally
- reopen conversation
- create goodwill
Many clients will immediately respond with updates.
Step 3 — The Conversation Framework
(10 minutes)
Once the conversation begins, ask three questions:
- How have things been going since we last worked together?
- What are the biggest challenges you’re working on right now?
- Are you seeing other businesses struggling with the same issue?
The third question often triggers referral opportunities naturally.
Step 4 — The Soft Referral Prompt
(5 minutes)
If the conversation flows well, use a gentle prompt.
Example: “If you know anyone dealing with this, feel free to introduce us. I’m always happy to help.”
Important principle: Never pressure. Always offer value.
