KickoffLabs.com – Build A Social Landing Page

September 7, 2011

Good news for those who are looking for a simple yet powerful way to build landing pages for their websites. That’s exactly what KickoffLabs provides. This startup enables anybody to build one such page by using a simple designer which basically lets him pick a template and place all the relevant content into position. Videos and background images can be employed as largely as the user wants, and he’ll be able to have the text he’s using to pitch his product illustrated and animated in whole.

And each and every landing page that is created through KickoffLabs actually comes with the necessary widgets and buttons for promoting what’s featured there socially. Visitors will be able to pass the best bargains and deals listed on it along, effectively acting as brand ambassadors.

And the minute the landing page has gone live is the minute the user can analyze conversion rates, views and referrals using the provided insight tools. So, finding the biggest fans and influencers (and begin developing lasting relationships with them) is a piece of cake.

KickoffLabs competes with services such as Launch It Now and Page/Do, which do something similar but that (in some specific instances) are more expensive.

Vouchfor.com – Reward People For Referring You

June 1, 2011

A fact is a fact: recommendations that come from your friends and family are more relevant than all other forms of advertisement taken together. It is something entirely logical. And any service that encouraged family members and friends to make one referral after the other would be a good and fruitful service bar none. Well, Vouchfor stands as nothing more and nothing less than that: a platform that encourages people to refer services to their friends and next of kin. The idea is that they will get a reward themselves every time that a referral they have made leads to an actual transaction.

This referral service comes at a cost, and three different plans are available. They all come with exactly the very same number of features, and the one and only difference is the length of the subscription. They all feature a set of tools for putting an appealing campaign together, and a dashboard for measuring the success of the campaign once it has been launched. And all three plans can be tried for free, too.

SocialPayout.com – Promote Your Content Using Buttons

April 4, 2011

Many claim that the efficacy of ad blocks is dwindling since people have become accustomed to their presence, to the point they have learned not to give them a second glance. Of course, not giving them a second glance also means not clicking on them. And that means sleepless nights for many an advertiser out there.

Whether such a thing is really happening, now, is something that can be debated. But those of you who seriously believe that your visitors are bypassing your ads will put this new service to excellent use. Social Payout is not an advertising platform, but a referral one. Users of Social Payout will be able to add buttons to their sites for visitors to recommend and endorse what they do all over Facebook, Twitter and even LinkedIn.

And how are users encouraged to use these buttons? Easy: they get a reward for doing so. Each time they use any of these buttons to spread the word about any service or product, they will get a small giveaway such as an ebook, a pdf file, a coupon or a discount code. Simple, fast and (above all) effective.

Anafore.com – Referral Marketing Done Right

November 13, 2010

Anafore provides online sellers with a truly effective referral marketing platform. Essentially, those who use Anafore will be able to leverage their every actual customer, and make new connections through him.

This is achieved in the following way. Suppose you have a store. Whenever somebody shops there, you will send the transaction details to Anafore. The company will take care of contacting that customer individually, asking him to refer your store to his friends. Each one of his friends that buys anything at your store because he recommended it to him is making the purchase at a discounted price, and the original customer (IE, the one who referred him to your shop) is actually getting a referral bonus.

The idea is these friends who have been directed to your store will in turn refer their own friends, and so on.

This approach can certainly be likened to a never-ending cycle, in which each new referral leads to plenty more. And if you decide to try this system out, note that you will be provided with a full dashboard letting you keep a good watch on every purchase that has been made, and the subsequent ones that such a purchase has given room to.

Spreadable.com – Rethinking Word Of Mouth Marketing

October 8, 2010

Word of mouth will always be a relevant form of marketing, for the simple reason that its efficacy goes hand in hand with the communicative nature of human beings. That is something that will never change, and the launch of startups like Spreadable does nothing but prove it.

Spreadable will enable bloggers and webmasters to place a widget on their sites, and people can then use that widget to share the site or blog through Facebook, Twitter and related resources. That is nothing really new, but what makes Spreadable interesting is that you (as the webmaster or blogger) can track who visits your site because of whom. That is, you will be able to determine who the biggest influencers are, and approach them directly in order to foster a direct relationship.

That is advantageous any way you look at it. And coming back to the actual widget, note that it can be tweaked in all the usual ways – you can change its overlay, its color… You will be able to come up with one capturing the essence of what you specialize in precisely.

JobPrize.com – Be Referred For Your Dream Job

June 15, 2010

“If you could pay someone $500 to land you a $75,000 a year job, would you?”. That is the first thing that you read upon landing on the site, and it is a question that seems to encapsulate the essence of the whole startup quite well.

You see, JobPrize is a job referral network. This means that the site will let you create a profile that just anybody can see, and in which you specify how much you are willing to pay to an employee that works within any company for referring you if an opening there materialises.

By setting down that information, then, you become reachable by prize hunters that will ask you to submit your resume for them to use as a referral if such an opening comes to be.

You will escrow the prize amount to the prize hunter upon reaching the instance in which you are interviewed for the job. You will not have to pay a prize until that moment arrives – if you do not get an interview, you will be under no obligation to release the escrow.

All in all, quite an interesting way to land the job you have always dreamed of. The site will effectively let you ensure that no suitable job position will ever pass you by, and that you are getting started on the right foot by being recommended by a person who already works at that company.

WiseStep.com – A Place To Make Professional Connections

May 31, 2010

WiseStep is a professional networking site. It enables such individuals to connect and refer each other, winning points and privileges in the process, and eventually redeeming these for tangible rewards (IE, monetary ones).

Profiles on the site are created at no cost, and once you are in you can proceed to invite your friends one by one. That is easily done, as it is only fit – such a function is actually the core of the whole networking experience as provided by WiseStep. Once you have a couple of friends to refer (and to be referred by) it all begins making sense.

On the other hand, if you represent a company that is hiring you can maximize such a referral system and reach job seekers that you would have no access to otherwise – IE, the kind of job seekers that are passive by nature, and who don’t post their profiles on job boards.

In this way, companies are getting referrals the world over, and people have access to a readier set of opportunities. People are also encouraged to become an active part of it all, and the more involved they become then the bigger rewards they will reap.

ChumBonus.com – Refer Your Friends And Earn Bonuses

December 7, 2009

Essentially, we can say that ChumBonus is a new referral system whereby you let your friends know about any job opening that could be suitable for them, and in the event they get the job owing to your recommendation then you will receive a reward. That is, ChumBonus aims to modify the way in which hiring is carried out online by giving people an added push to put open positions about.

Besides, the bonus can be given to any charity that the referrer wishes, to the degree that he wants – it is actually possible to give it up in its entirety.

The actual implementation of this process is as simple as it could be – you simply send jobs to your friends once you have created a (free) account, and they will weigh up whether or not they are going to accept it. If they do, you will receive the bonus and then it is up to you to decide what to do with the bonus.

When it comes to charities, these can join the site by signing up at no cost. Upon doing so, they will become publicly visible to every site user, as charities are featured on the main page in addition to being browsable by category. In that sense, everybody is benefited – referrers obtain a bonus, their friends get a job, employers have a bigger chance of coming across the suitable candidates and charities can receive additional support.

RefMob.com – A Marketplace Of Referrals

September 16, 2009

This young startup is branded as “the refer-a-friend marketplace”. What does that mean? Well, we can apprehend its basic essence by thinking of it as a space where companies and businesses can let everybody know about their paid referral programs.

Besides, the site is a true social marketplace – people who drop by can start referring each other and earn money for doing so. Integration with the big social resources of the day like Facebook and Twitter is accounted for, and when a site user posts a referral on RefMob it can be posted to these in a fell swoop. Friends will be able to see what has been posted, and the one who spreads the word and helps the original user find what he wanted receives a fixed amount of money as a reward.

As you can see, the dynamics or the site are both uncomplicated and accurate. I find it a suitable way to capitalize on the ever-growing social scene, and I think it has a chance of becoming particularly successful with small companies that want to promote their paid referral programs. After all, what better way to reach the masses cost-effectively than Facebook & Co?

MyJobReferrals.com – Refer Friends For Jobs

August 12, 2009

Those looking for a job can always lean on the Internet for support and direction. And a new site (MyJobReferrals.

com) stands as one of the most appealing services I have seen recently, if only because of the twist it adds. Basically, it is a web application that rewards you for linking qualified candidates to open positions. As the team behind it puts it “Think of it as a Craigslist to find jobs for your friends”.

Whenever a “good” candidate that you reported is hired, you (as the referrer) receive a placement reward. This service can be used by anybody – you don’t need to be a recruiter in order to benefit from it, just being someone who wants to lend a hand is enough.

The site includes a database of available positions, all of which come from verified employers. When you come across a posting that is a perfect match for someone that you know, you can notify him or her on the spot.

I think we will all agree this is a fresh take on something which usually revolves around the very same procedures time after time. Drop by the site in order to learn more, and see if you can spot something for someone you know.
