Referral Bonus Boost!

Welcome to Web 2.0 and, umm, the Internet!  So, I get an email asking me if I have any good ideas to re-market someone's candidate referral program (you know, where you offer to pay someone $100 to refer someone that you place).  I also got quite a few emails after I posted a lesson on working with JVs to grow your clients and referrals.  I was asked what the best method is to offer up "splits" of revenue for those who help bring in business for you.
Long story short, all of the questions and processes that were discussed ALL revolved around 1975 ideas!  I mean, ZERO technology and NOTHING different!
Why on earth don't you tap into the power of the Internet to UNLEASH these referrals and to TRACK them unlike you ever could before... So, let me lay out the answers for you..

Sales people may be spending too much time on-line? Are you hiding from something??

The biggest challenge facing recruiters and sales people today is not the recession..It is all of the on-line job boards and tools!  The problem  is that each of  our clients also has access to these job boards. So many recruiters only attack these "portals" one level deep (ie the same level as their clients would). Nobody needs a recruiter to simply mine that low hanging fruit.  Even worse, many are spending too much time here, because it makes them feel good and feel productive. .and it's all mostly a big lie.....
