Non-Monetary Referral Tracking

When I did my pre-release review video for FluentAffiliate, I gave the idea of having a non-monetary tracking system for referrals. The idea was for something like newsletter referrals, where I'd like to track referrals into the list, then offer them gifts/bonuses when they hit certain referral thresholds. There wouldn't be any monetary commissions, in this case.

I hope this can be added. Between this and some triggers in FluentCRM to fulfill gifts when thresholds are met, this would be an incredible selling point. Lot of the SaaS options for newsletter referral systems are so incredibly expensive.

I remember seeing something like this already on the beta: I posted this somewhere talking about if this was expected to be used for lead magnets.

It’s called β€œLead Opt in”

It was on the menu of β€œCreate referral”

Jorge de los ReyesΒ I don't remember seeing it on the beta, and I'm currently looking at the latest version which is about to release next week and I don't see it either.

David RisleyΒ I edited this post to add where you can find it (at least on the beta).

I only see this on manual creation of referrals, but I guess it should be a way to create the referrals like usual

Jorge de los ReyesΒ OK, yeah, I do see that. It does seem as if the feature if incomplete, though.

What I great idea. Would love to have a referral program.

That would be great could give access to a course, ebook, etc

Love that idea David RisleyΒ !

I can see numerous beneficial use cases for something like this to be included.

Shahjahan JewelΒ Just thought I'd tag you on this for an extra ping. πŸ˜‡

David RisleyΒ after watching your video, we have added an extra column in our database table for this. So it’s on my radar.

Shahjahan JewelΒ Awesome. Can't wait. I've wanted to do a referral system for my newsletter for awhile, but saw no viable options that I wanted to get involved with.

Plus, non-monetary affiliate bonuses would be awesome anyway. :)
