Here’s Some Episode Highlights:
Just a quick note: Since we released this episode and how we teach the layers of a referable business, we have improved the concept of “layers” or “building blocks” to be more holistic. With this in mind, below we have linked to the new “Building a Referable Business Roadmap” which outlines all 18 strategies we teach. You will notice the overlap with what I teach in this episode but the document you download will look different.
If you thought we spent a lot of time digging into who our referral sources are over the last few episodes, I promise all that hard work has brought us to this point.
The last three episodes have been all really understanding who are our referral sources.
Understanding who they are, the relationship you have with them, if they are active or not active.
The reason is because they’re at the center of a strong and stable referral strategy. Since the first layer of a referral strategy is our existing referral sources
In a previous episode (#125), I introduced the concept of looking at your referral strategy from a layering approach.
The first layer of that strategy is what you do to take care of your existing referral sources. Let’s break the layers down, step-by-step with our the download of the Building a Referable Business Roadmap – an expanded take on the layered approach.

If you need to go back and catch up on our series on Referral Sources, here’s the previous episodes:
In episode #135 we pulled together our referral sources from the last few years plus rated our relationship with them.
In episode #136 , we used those results to calculate two very important numbers – our average referrals for the year and our referral explosion potential (if we’re willing to do the work)!
And in episode #137 we learned how to determine which of our referral sources are active or inactive.
