3 of the best times to get referrals from your existing members
Upon Enrolment
Upon a new student’s enrolment (right after the paperwork is signed) you request three names and numbers of people to whom the new student would like to extend the VIP opportunity. Remember that you are not asking IF they know anyone, you are asking WHO they know. “Now that you are a student, you can invite three of your friends to take advantage of the VIP membership. Simply fill these cards out and I will be right back.”
After Testing
At your next testing, have each student bring a friend to watch him or her perform. Have a guest list for them to sign in and present each guest with a VIP pass after the event.
After Upgrading
When a student has upgraded to a higher level of training, tell them it is now their responsibility to sponsor a friend into the program. Have them fill out a VIP pass and return it to you on the spot.
