Why referral marketing works

92% of consumers trust referrals from friends or family more than ads. Referral programs turn satisfied diners into repeat customers.

  • • Reward loyal customers with clear incentives.
  • • Leverage word-of-mouth instead of expensive ads.
  • • Track and optimize the offers that drive visits.

  • • Promote in-store, online and on receipts.
