  • jlriedi
    I'm going to do one for-profit and one nonprofit referral here:

    Donnelly Chiropractic
    www.milwaukeepainrelief.com
    Dr. Mary and Dr. Kevin are amazing. After years of chiropractors, surgeries and less than reputable "healers," my boyfriend had nearly given up hope on getting rid of his chronic pain. Dr. Mary found what the problem was during the first appointment and now my boyfriend has gone from 20+ pain killers a day to zero. Absolute genius, she has a gift.

    House of Blue Hope Foundation
    www.houseofbluehope.org
    The impact this organziation has on the children it helps is beyond amazing. I have witnessed firsthand a child who was not in school and was living on the streets because his family could not afford to care for him and he is now on track to getting into college to become an accountant (his dream job!). What amazes me the most is this organization was founded and is run by young professionals (all under 30) who saw a need in a community and decided to do something about it. Truly heartwarming!!
  • I refer Clark Signs in Glenpool, OK. They recently joined Gold Star Clubs as members, and have proven themselves to be very honest and correctly priced!

    We trusted them enough to refer to our church pastor at Bixby Community Church - http://bixbycommunitychurch.co...! They are working with the quoted prices to give the church a breakdown to monthly payments! We didn't even ask, but it really helps the new church.

    Keep those referrals rolling!

Kyle and his team learn your company's message and build a social media strategy from the ground up and then they actually run the social media campaign for you--including any other campaigns like direct mail or mobile. They integrate social media with direct mail, events and even find partners for their clients. It's a real load off when a small business can defer that task to LaunchFish and know it's being represented well online.

One of whom I will definitely hire.

  • Bob Barker
    Just a comment. I reported a referral already. I'm just making an observation now.

    Why are so many people on this thread making recommendations? Although recommendations are wonderful, a REFERRAL means you actively match a person who needs something with a person who can help, and, if possible, you also make an introduction. If the goal is 1000 referrals, and people are only making recommendations, and not actual referrals, this challenge will never be met. Recommendations are easy. Referrals should be, too, but you can't make them without effort.
  • If you're a writer and you're not reading Deb Ng's blog, http://FreelanceWritingGigs.co..., I highly recommend it. I follow very few blogs that always deliver great content, but she sure does. I don't know how she so consistently gets to the heart of the matter.

    Empowermind has helped both of my children and I know Empowermind can help you and yours children! I have an 'A' student who is way too focus and didn't know how to have fun and not get frustrated if it's not perfect. She also helped my not so focused one, figure out how to play the game. His grades went up. He's a 3.5 without trying now. He was taking forever to do homework that should have taken minutes. Life is good in my house, make yours good too, call empowermind! 248-366-1960 or empowermind.com

  • I like products from Omnistar Interactive http://www.omnistaretools.com because their products are easy to use and they have excellent customer service. I have had their email marketing software for 3 years now, it is called Omnistar Mailer http://www.omnistarmailer.com and it helped me to expand my business

    River Runner Outfitters, a fly fishing guide service that operates on the Lower Deschutes River and the north coastal rivers of Oregon, earns my referral. These folks have taken customer service to a new level in addition to putting clients on great fishing spots. The guides are very personable and helpful, and the head guide cooks the best meals on the river when you're on a three-day river float.

    If you're looking for feisty wild trout or steelhead, give them a call.

    I refer William of KNC Scrubs & Accessories, www.cherokeekncscrubs.com. They are a small family owned medical uniform scrubs shop. They are located in Brandon, FL and have been in business since January 2008. They open their doors just as the market started going down and have been struggling ever since. William has kept his head up and continued fighting to keep the doors open. He put all they had into the business. William retired after 20 years in corrections, state prison and county jail and wanted something less stressful so he opened his store. I would hate to see him lose it all after coming so far. Thanks.
  • I referred two friends to Janette Bunge's dynamite small CPA firm in my hometown of Tucson . http://www.jbungecpa.com/

  • We have an income tax business. We have served our community over 35 years and still growing.
    We love to ask our clients for referrals. They sent us some wonderful clients.
  • We referred one of our IT clients to Software Analysis in Bloomingdale last week. Our client needed help with Peachtree. We only support MAS90 and MAS200 so when we have an opportunity for Peachtree support we always refer to Software Analysis. They have a great tag line..."when your Help key isn't enough".
