What Is Referral Marketing
This is a form of online marketing where an online seller or marketer pays a percentage of the product sold to an outbound referral or website because of the sale made or revenue generated through its reference. Referral Marketing is one of the best and profitable ways to grow your customer base. This is an incredible marketing form for increasing leads and sales to your website but is underrated for its capacity.
How It Works
Now that we have understood what referral marketing is, let’s dive into how referral marketing works.
Referral marketing works the same as the mechanism of a real estate agent. They sell houses or property which they don’t own themselves. Instead, they promote the property of their clients and earns a percentage of the sales price of the property sold.
Likewise in referral marketings, the person who owns or created the product is the website and the person who has purchased your product and referred to others who are intending to buy a similar product is the external website or the referrer of your product. So if the referred person purchases that similar product from your website, the referral will get a percentage on the product’s sale.
