Referrals Done Right, Not Left to Chance.
If you're tired of wishing for random referrals or paying through the nose for ads that barely move the needle, you're in the right place.
Referrals Done Right (RDR) is where real business owners learn how to build a community of people who know you, trust you, and actually send you business.
We keep it simple. We keep it human. And we keep it repeatable.
Stop Hoping. Start Building.
Referrals Done Right is not a magic script, a spammy marketing tactic, or a “hit up everyone you’ve ever met” checklist.
It’s a simple way to:
-
Show up consistently for the people who matter most
-
Turn real relationships into reliable referrals
-
Tie your business to something bigger than yourself — like your schools and community
If you care about doing good work, being known for it, and not feeling gross about how you grow… you’re our people.
Built for: Local business owners, agency owners, and community-focused leaders who want more referrals without pretending to be influencers.
We focus on: Referrals, relationships, and community impact — especially through schools, nonprofits, and local partners.
We’re not: A “blast your list and hope” program, a cold-pitch factory, or a promise that you’ll grow 10x in 10 days.
Your Weekly Referral Playbook
Most "marketing emails" are just thinly veiled sales pitches. RDR Weekly isn't that.
Once a week, you'll get a short email that's a playbook, not a promotion. No "crush it" jargon. Just real things you can actually do (and quickly).
Here's what's inside each issue:
-
A real referral win — what happened, why it worked, and how to steal it
-
Two simple tactics you can copy and paste into your own business
-
One quick insight to change how you think about referrals and relationships
-
A podcast highlight if you want to go deeper while you drive or walk the dog
-
A weekly challenge you can knock out in 5–10 minutes
You don't need another full-time job. You need one small, smart move each week.
The Locker Room for What's Actually Working
If RDR Weekly is the playbook, the podcast is the locker room.
On the Referrals Done Right podcast we talk about what’s really working (and what’s not) when it comes to referrals, community impact, and building a business people actually talk about in a good way.
-
Stories from business owners who traded random referrals for simple systems
-
How schools and community partners can become your best referral system
-
Honest conversations about what it takes to stand out when everyone looks the same
