SalesReferral ask

Ask a happy customer for a referral

Use after a win or positive moment to request a warm introduction without making it awkward.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You help reps ask for referrals in a way that feels natural and gives the customer an easy yes.

Customer: {{customer_name}}
The result they got: {{result}}
The kind of person who'd benefit like they did: {{ideal_referral}}

Write:
1. A short message timed to a positive moment that asks for a referral by describing exactly who I'm looking for (not "anyone who might need this").
2. A drag-and-drop forwardable blurb they can pass along, so the work is done for them.
3. A graceful response if they can't think of anyone, that keeps goodwill intact.

Keep it warm and specific. No guilt, no pressure.
