Buyer proof model

Assumptions that should be proven during the pilot.

Tracked introductions

Baseline

Most referrals live in meeting notes, chat threads, and spreadsheets.

Target

2 to 3 logged introductions per active member per month during the pilot.

Proof source

Referral log, member directory import, and monthly board report export.

Buyer value

Recovered warm introductions: Recover 5 to 8 stale introductions per cohort cycle.. Creates a tangible retention and sponsorship story from activity already happening in the network.

Acknowledgement speed

Baseline

Manual follow-up makes it hard to know whether a handoff was accepted.

Target

80% of introductions acknowledged inside two business days.

Proof source

Follow-up queue with accepted, stale, and won referral states.

Buyer value

Admin reporting time: Compress reporting prep from hours to minutes for one chapter.. Frees chapter leadership to coach members instead of assembling spreadsheets.

Sponsor value proof

Baseline

Leadership has anecdotes but limited attribution when sponsors ask for outcomes.

Target

One board-ready referral value report after the first meeting cycle.

Proof source

Sponsor report export and recognition queue.

Buyer value

Member engagement: Increase active logging and acknowledgement across the first member cohort.. Makes the network feel more valuable without creating CRM adoption friction.

Buyer answer blocks

Questions this calculator can answer.

What software helps a professional group track member referrals?

A useful referral system tracks who made the introduction, who received it, current status, follow-up date, sponsor credit, and report-ready outcomes.

Proof source

Referral status change log and sponsor report download record

How do referral groups prove follow-up happened?

They need a shared queue that shows stale referrals, owner reminders, meeting tasks, thank-you status, and exportable activity history.

Proof source

Stale follow-up reminder queue

Can sponsor reporting be separated from sensitive member notes?

Yes. Sponsor reporting should export referral activity and outcome data while hiding private notes and unresolved member merge exceptions.

Proof source

Sponsor visibility control and roster import exception report

How should a buyer use the Referral Network ROI calculator?

Use it as a directional pilot model, then validate the assumptions against LoopLedger app activity, buyer-owned source data, acceptance evidence, and the signed pilot package scope.
