Plus, it always seems those folks that are getting referred are everywhere. They are visible and interesting. How can you do the same and build your business? How often are you referred? Do you have a formal referral system or do you just wing it? John Jantsch knows a thing or two about referrals. In fact, the founder of Duct Tape Marketing has a new book out (today in fact) giving you ideas on the art and science of referrals called The Referral Engine (link to the website) In this interview (and sorry for the choppy video…the audio should be crystal clear), John and I discuss what people are doing wrong in the world of referrals, how you can get referred more, why content is the best form of advertising and much more.
