Hinweis der Redaktion
- Single Incentive: A single incentive structure only rewards the original referrer for the new sale generated as a result of their activity. Dual Incentive: A dual incentive structure rewards both the referrer and the new customer.
- For a smaller brand, a single incentive structure with higher value proves more effective than a dual incentive structure in with both participants receive less of a reward. Based on these results, it is more effective for rewards to be skewed in favor of the original referrer for smaller brands. For a strong, established brand a dual incentive structure works better as a result of existing customers having an established relationship with the brand that deters price sensitivity; meaning that new customers should be targeted and rewarded more than existing customers. Both types of brands should take into account the benefits of an escalating reward structure, where-in referrers are rewarded more for each subsequent referral they loop in. This is based on the assumption that recommendations to close friends and family would have occurred anyway so its important to keep ambassadors engaged. In this case, the structure should be geared towards rewarding referrals to casual acquaintances.
