Personalizing at Scale
“With a proper CLG program, you can reach exactly the right people with a highly tailored reachout – but you can do this in a systematic and structured way.”
Defining Referral Quality
“When you have a proper system in place, you can identify which referrals are quality, which aren’t – and how to reward the right people.”
Fine-Tuning Your Referral Program

Advanced Customer-led Growth Tactics
“The fact is, people buy from peope. And current customers encouraging new customers is the most reliable acquisition channel in history. CLG is about powering that channel in every way possible.”

“When people refer, when they talk about products that they love – they do it in their own language and voice. This means that every touchpoint can be unique.”
