Referral Success Guide for Children's Retailers

The internet has become a haven for parenting related social communities and chat forums, for obvious reasons. Parenthood (especially first timearound) can be a daunting and challenging experience. In the absence of a straightforward rulebook, seeking out answers, reassurance and validation from fellow parents online, has become the norm — in relation to all aspects of parenting, including consumer habits.  

Children’s retailers can use a referral marketing platform to turn loyal customers into repeat advocates while measuring how referrals contribute to acquisition and retention.

In our latest guide, we look at how referral programmes in the children' sector are the perfect way to harness this quest for social proof.

In particular, we examine:

  • Key events for children's retailers
  • Trends in the sector
  • Why referrals work so well in the baby & children market
  • Examples of great referral programmes from leading childen's retailers
