How it works

4 steps to run a referral engine on autopilot

Step 1

Set up your campaign

Either triggered automatically when a customer leaves a review above your star threshold, or send a one-off campaign to your full contact list or a specific segment.

Step 2

Each customer gets a unique referral link

Every customer who receives an invite gets their own personalized, trackable link to share with anyone, anywhere. You see exactly who's referring and how many clicks they're driving.

Step 3

Friend receives a referral message

When your customer shares their link, the friend gets a personalized message with your latest reviews front and center to build instant trust.

Step 4

New lead lands in your dashboard

Referred contacts submit their details and appear as a new lead in NiceJob. You see who referred them, which messages performed best, and the full funnel from invite to booked service.

Frequently asked questions

Because most referrals that could happen, don't. Your happiest customers intend to recommend you — but they're busy, they forget, and there's never a natural moment to do it. Automation closes that gap by sending the ask at exactly the right time, with a frictionless link that takes seconds to share. Businesses using NiceJob's automated referral campaigns see 2x more referrals than those relying on organic word of mouth alone.

First, automated: NiceJob sends a referral invite when a customer leaves a review above your set star threshold — for example, 4 stars or above. This catches them at the exact moment they've told you they're happy. Second, one-off campaigns: you can manually send a referral invite to any segment of your contact list — your entire customer history, or a specific group — whenever you choose.

The referred friend gets a personalized message — sent on behalf of your customer — with your latest reviews displayed to build immediate trust. From there they can submit their contact details and become a lead in your NiceJob dashboard.

Yes. NiceJob lets you customize your referral messaging, so you can communicate any incentive you want to offer — a discount, a gift card, or simply a thank-you. The platform gives you the messaging tools to run your own program.

NiceJob's referral analytics show individual performance — which customers are clicking, which are converting, which messages work best, and the full journey from referral invite to new customer booked.
