What? You want me to decline a referral? After somebody liked and trusted me enough to pass my name on? Why in the world would I say “no thanks”?

Here are four good reasons to say "no thanks":

1. You don't provide the service or product the referral wants.
2. You are so busy that you can’t provide the level of service that the referral expects based on the lead.
3. The service or product the referral wants is too far off what you traditionally offer.
4. The referral won't work with you through your process.

If you want referrals you don't have to turn down, help your customers do a better job of referring you. Get our template to learn more.
