Today I want you to learn from Stacey Brown Randall, who’s teaching us that the best kinds of referrals are the ones you get without asking.
But wait, don’t you have to ask people for referrals? Traditional wisdom implies that people aren’t going to give you referrals unless you ask, right?
As it turns out, Stacey explains, the best kinds of referrals are the ones you get without having to ask. You do have to earn them, but there is a better way to go about it that is more beneficial, and far less awkward.
