How to Leverage Your Professional Network for More Referrals

March 10 2015

You know the old saying: "To make a friend, be a friend." The same outlook hold true in your professional relationships. To encourage referrals from your network, be a source of referrals for other home services professionals that you are friendly with. Here are four ways you can do just that.

1. Create a Moving Guide for Buyers

One way to ensure that you are sending referrals to your professional contacts is to be the gateway for consumers looking for a recommendation. Establish yourself as a resource that homeowners can consult immediately upon closing a transaction. Many buyers change service providers when moving, so when you hand over the key, also give them a handy guide to local service providers. Include a list of local companies and contact information for each. To get started, you can use below chart of the most commonly changed service providers.

Don't forget to mention that you are happy to provide recommendations for any other kind of professional services that homeowners may need. Offer your phone number and email address for them to contact you directly for information. Or you can refer them to your website if you have a list or directory of professional services there.
