The document discusses the power of social referrals for marketing. It begins with an overview of the changing landscape, where consumers now trust peer recommendations over traditional advertising. The presentation then discusses how social referral programs can benefit brands by growing sales, increasing traffic, and providing insights. A case study of clothing brand J. Hilburn's social referral program is provided, which identified over 1,000 advocates, drove 10,000 social shares, and increased transactions and sales by 600 orders and $250,000 in its first 45 days. Key takeaways note that social referrals amplify word-of-mouth and drive new sales when incorporated into a ongoing referral program that keeps users engaged.
