Why Referrals Matter More Than Any Ad We Could Buy
Here’s something that makes us proud (and is a pretty crazy awesome): 90% of our clients come from referrals.
Not from fancy ads. Not from cold calls. But from you telling someone you trust, “Hey, call GiaSpace.”
When you share your experience with GiaSpace, it carries weight no marketing campaign ever could. You’ve been there. You know what it’s like to work with us. That recommendation? It’s gold.
And here’s proof it works: Most of the clients you’ve referred to us have been with us for 7-10 years. That’s not just new business; that’s lasting partnerships built on trust. And in our industry? It’s honestly unusual…most IT companies don’t have stickiness like this.
Real Stories: How Referrals Built Our Business
The Accounting Firm Connection
An accounting company in Florida has been with us for 5+ years. In that time, they’ve referred three clients to us who have become great long-term partnerships.
The common denominator? Their corporate cultures match up with ours really well. They value the same things we do: responsiveness, reliability, and treating people right.
The Backyard BBQ Referral
One of our largest clients, a healthcare company in Texas, came from a conversation that happened at a weekend barbecue.
A former colleague’s wife was friends with a business owner who mentioned she was opening a new office and needed IT support. Our name was passed along, and we got the call the following Monday morning at 7 a.m.
Nine years later, she’s still a client! And we only found out about the barbecue connection years after that. That’s how referrals work. Sometimes you don’t even know the chain of trust that led someone to your door.
Our Way of Saying Thank You
Right now, when you refer a client, you can choose from:
- Charity donation to an organization you care about
- Service credit toward your account
- Cold hard cash (because sometimes that’s just nice)
But we’re wondering:
1. Are these the right options? Is there something else you’d prefer?
2. And what motivates you to refer GiaSpace in the first place?
Maybe it’s one of the options we already offer, or maybe it’s something completely different. Maybe you refer us because you genuinely want to help another business owner, and the reward is just a bonus. We want to hear from you!
