Referron, available on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, is an app that connects with and empowers the champions of your business to send referrals anytime, anywhere.

Sydney, Australia - 7 June 2013 - During their official launch at CeBIT Australia last week, The Referron app had over 300 technology innovators making referrals to each other over the three-day conference.

Using the smartphone app, just a few taps are all that's needed for the champions to send their friends as qualified prospects to businesses they know, like and trust. Early customers using the app are seeing 3-5x increase in referrals.

Todd Heslin, co-founder and Referron architect, says, "CeBIT was the perfect example of people connecting with people. We didn’t need to sell Referron. We simply gave our customers the keys to test drive a new way of connecting with their champions." Whilst Todd and the Referron team kept the stand busy, most new customers were spreading the app from person to person. One advocate at the show proclaimed that referron is the social referral revolution!

Showing off what the app does best, co-founder and VC Ivan Kaye, walked around and met businesses with one question: ‘Who can I refer you to?’, and with Referron, he was able to connect his contacts with those businesses in seconds! “Referron is truly a game changer!" Said Kaye

Financial Planner Chris Magnus, one of Referron's first customers, says:  “Referron has been a fantastic tool for my business. It has enabled me to receive leads from trusted sources which have so far added $20,000 of revenue in just 1 month! I highly recommend Referron to any business.”

The app is free for anyone to download and begin referring, those who receive referrals can receive three free per month. Businesses can subscribe to unlimited referrals and online management tools for as little as $20 per month. Planned developments for Referron over the next few months include new social networking integration, messaging and business CRM integration.

Referron launches 'missing link' - an app to connect with and empower your business champions

Referron, available on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, is an app that connects with and empowers the champions of your business to send referrals anytime, anywhere.

Sydney, Australia - 30 May 2013 - Referron has today completed the official launch of its flagship mobile referrals application. Identified as the missing tool for every business that relies on word-of-mouth referrals, Referron directly connects businesses with their champions - those people who enthusiastically support and endorse their products and services.

Todd Heslin, co-founder and Referron architect, says, "Referrals have kept people connected for thousands of years. With the recent move to faceless digital messaging, Referron uses technology to leverage the humanity of connecting with people face-to face."

The idea was the result of a need of co-founder Ivan Kaye to track referrals within his BSI Group of companies.

Using the smartphone app, just a few taps are all that's needed for the champions to send their friends as qualified prospects to businesses they know, like and trust. Early customers using the app are seeing 3-5x increase in referrals.

“Referron is a game changer," Mr Kaye said. "It is a tool that will make a massive difference to everyone in business and is one of the most exciting business that I have been involved in. With Referron, we can now track and measure our referrals, and as the gurus say, what you can measure you can manage. This is an amazing tool for business - both SMEs and enterprise.”

Financial Planner Chris Magnus, one of Referron's first customers, says:  “Referron has been a fantastic tool for my business. It has enabled me to receive leads from trusted sources which have so far added $20,000 of revenue in just 1 month! I highly recommend Referron to any business.”

Referron has been exhibiting at the CeBIT Technology Conference at the Sydney Convention and Exhibition Centre on Darling Harbour with Technology Partner Prakash Software Solutions Pvt Ltd, based in Gujarat, India. After successfully building the prototype in Australia, Referron engaged Prakash to speed up the development process using its highly skilled and cost-effective team.

Hardik Shah, Managing Director of Prakash Software said, “This is one of the most powerful tools we have been privileged to help build. We are proud to play a part in the development of Referron - this powerful social referral network.”

The app is free for anyone to download and begin referring, those who receive referrals can receive three free per month. Businesses can subscribe to unlimited referrals and online management tools for as little as $20 per month. Planned developments for Referron over the next few months include new social networking integration, messaging and business CRM integration.
