How to Inspire Referrals 1. Listen: This is the most important yet often overlooked step. Wherever you go and whoever you meet, let people know you’re a Health Coach. Then, stop talking, and listen to what the other person says. Do they have minor health concerns, like losing a few pounds, but are happy overall? This person might make a good client. Are they already involved in a holistic profession and are curious to learn more? Do they have bigger health concerns and are looking for a new way of thinking? Do they have a job they absolutely hate? These people might be good referrals. 2. Speak from the heart: When someone asks, share your IIN experience. You can talk about your health transformation, your favorite part of the curriculum, or how you’re using your IIN education now. That’s entirely up to you so don’t worry about hitting any talking points and just speak from the heart.

3. Share our resources: If your friends are interested, they’ll want to know more. Below are some common questions with suggestions on resources that you can send to help answer them.
What will I learn? / What is IIN? / What is a Health Coach? The IIN Program Guide outlines our curriculum, introduces the world-renowned nutrition experts who teach our classes, and showcases what’s possible with an IIN education by highlighting the different career paths of successful graduates.
What is online learning like? The 15-minute student experience webinar will help your friends get a feel for online learning and what it’s like to be a student at IIN.
What can I do after IIN? / What kind of career will I have? The Health Coach Starter Guide will help them envision a career as a Health Coach by providing a number of resources including Joshua’s complete Integrative Nutrition eBook. For more resources like these, check out our resources page. 4. Introduce IIN: When your friend is ready to speak to someone at IIN, introduce him or her to Coach Blair via email. You can use an email template and simply CC coachblair@integrativenutrition.com. Blair and her team will answer any remaining questions and can set up an appointment with an admissions representative. She’ll also ensure you’re listed as that person’s referrer so you are eligible to receive a referral reward if they enroll. If you don’t introduce your friend to us via email, make sure they mention your name as their referrer upon enrollment. 5. Follow up: Make sure to check in with your referrals to follow up on what they think of the program and to offer your support. We’ll send you an email reminder but you can always check on the status of your referrals on your Referral Tracker, and you can also reach out for a follow-up via phone or email when you feel comfortable.

Spruce up your website: Add an Integrative Nutrition Banner to your website or blog.

Track Your Referrals
We make it convenient and easy for you to stay informed about the status of your referrals after you’ve introduced them to IIN. 1. We’ll send you email notifications to confirm:
• when we have received your introductions to IIN
• when one of your referrals has enrolled
• when your referral reward payment is on the way
2. You can check on the status of your referrals at any time by going to the Referral Tracker. Click on the ID# of any individual person to see the reward value you have earned, along with the estimated date of when you can expect your reward check to arrive. 3. Referral rewards are processed within 90 days of your referrals’ enrollment date, assuming your referral has remained in the program. If your referral level has qualified you to receive an additional gift, you’ll be notified via email and given instructions on how to make your gift selection.
You’ve reached the end of your Ambassador Network guide. We hope this has been a helpful introduction to the wealth of resources you now have access to. We encourage you to use them on your path to success as both a Health Coach and an IIN Ambassador.
