Referralkey.com (12 posts)

  • Are any of you familiar with or using referralkey.com?  In the past week I have had two people ask me join or link to them.  If you have been using it has it been benefical in getting new business or just and another web place that takes up your time?

  • @trudy Hi Trudy

    First time I have heard of this site, but here is a write up on Mashable.com

    I am not totally convinced however (especially as it is not free), and the line “Give referrals and get cash rewards” fills me with dread.

    But it might be worth signing up just to have a poke around.

    Cheers!

  • @russellallert Thanks for the comments and the link to the Mashable article. It was written I see in 2008, so it has been around fours years now.

  • @trudy I didn’t notice the date. :)

    Any time, Trudy.

    I’ve been getting these off and on. I’ve been actively ignoring them since they often come from people I’m barely connected to and they’re asking if I’m taking on new clients so they can help me out?

    And they all read identically?

    If it walks like spam and talks like spam…

  • @rich-brooks @trudy That was my first impression too, Rich. :)

  • @russellallert @rich-brooks   Rich those are exactly what I am getting. So I am simply going to ignore them as also.  Thanks to  both of you.

  • @trudy

    It’s funny, I got another one between replying to you and seeing your response!

    I guess it’s coming in waves.

  • If it walks like spam and talks like spam… LOL! Loved that quote, @rich-brooks ;-)

  • Rich, love the quote like Frederic. And, Russell, is your brain as big as an encyclopedia? You always have great info! Trudy, thanks for the heads up on this.Great job, all.@fredericgonzalo @rich-brooks @russellallert @trudy

  • @trudy I have an account because I was invited by a Chamber friend; however, I have never received a referral nor do I actively use it. I’ll log in over the weekend and see what’s going on. At this point, I would tentatively say that it’s a waste of time…

  • @trudy @russellallert @rich-brooks , i am too not that much impressed with the system and think it might be like spamming. I mean there are already lots of similar presence on the web claiming to give you genuine leads, but you know, automated system can’t works better than human connecting with potential customers.
