The person who gave you the referral already has a relationship of trust with the prospect and is lending you credibility by referring you to them. This is why it is important to make them look good by edifying them and effectively fulfilling that referral, so they get great feedback about working with you and want to refer to you again.

Check out Dr. Ivan Misner's latest blog on how to edify your referral source. 👇

A quick CEU for our members!

You don’t “activate” your network first.
You first earn the right to.

Strong referral networks don’t happen by accident—they are built step by step:

>Build relationships with intention
>Educate people so they understand your value
>Motivate through genuine connection
>And then… activate your network
If you skip a step, you’ll feel it.

Because referrals don’t come from pressure. They come from clarity, trust, and consistency over time.

When done right, your network becomes your voice in rooms you are not even in.
