What You’ll Learn in the R.I.C.H. Relationship Society

How to Leverage Your Network:

But not in a “taker” kind of way. Learn how to energize your relationships with strategic communication and systems that allow you to build genuine partnerships.

How to Avoid Common Pitfalls:

Everyone asks, and appreciates referrals in the same transactional way. Learn how to have referral conversations that open doors and introductions.

How to Run Referral + Relationship Systems:

Some of us build and grow great partnerships, innately. But, without systems, keeping up with key relationships can fall through the cracks. Implement checklists that you, and your team can use.

How to Appreciate Your Relationships:

Appreciation is a strategy. Learn how to demonstrate value in your referral, employee, and client relationships to unlock loyalty and create raving fans (who refer you business!)

How Much is a Qualified Referral Worth To You?

“Our referrals went up 105%. We’ve run this event for the past 5 years and haven’t charged a single thing, except this year we sent gifts to every single attendee and followed your program to include the spouse as well. I would have been elated with a 10% increase in referrals, let alone ten times that.”

John Bowen

Founder CEG Worldwide

“It’s cool to see a system that is so in line with my heart and how I want to build my business, but there’s always been little gaps of systems and processes of HOW to do it. R.I.C.H. fills those gaps.

Seth Schmidt

Executive Coach

“I received 3 referrals from a CPA that I have on the program, and his words were “you send top notch gifts so I want to make sure I’m sending you quality clients”. Since I’ve started the program, I’ve received roughly $2 million in referral assets.”

F A Q

“I’m already getting referrals, do I really need this?”
Yes, you’re getting referrals – but are you in control of them? Good businesses get some referrals by doing good work, but believing referrals are solely based on performance keeps you reactive.

Our system turns reactive, passive referrals into a proactive strategy. We CAN control our referrals– the amount we get + how good they are– and it starts here.

How long is the course?
Referral Partner Transformation includes 27 instructional videos, but it’s designed to be digested quickly in just 4 hours total–less than an average audiobook.
What if I don’t have a large existing network?
No worries! It’s not about the size of your network—it’s about how you approach people and how you nurture those relationships. We’ll help you focus on the right people and maximize what you’ve already got.

And if this is your first day in business, we have answers for you too.

Will this course work if I have little time to network?
7am networking groups is what this course gets you away from. This isn’t about chasing networking events or doing cold social media outreach. It’s about having micro-conversations with the right people and moving them into a “clarity conversation.”

It’s about teaching your partners to fish, not chasing after the fish themselves.

And if this is your first day in business, we have answers for you too.

Is the course focused more on sales or relationship-building?
Our course does not teach any traditional, “salesy” tactics. Instead, we teach you how to create referral partnerships that sell on your behalf–bringing in pre-sold, pre-qualified customers. We believe referral partners are your best salespeople.

Why spend so much time trying to catch fish on your own, when you can have an army of fishermen fishing on your behalf?

What makes ‘adding value’ different from traditional marketing?
Traditional marketing pushes your message out. Adding value focuses on building genuine relationships that pull people in. Showing up with authentic value, not a sales pitch, is what makes people excited to work with you.

Will I need to make cold calls to generate referrals?
Yuck. No. 🙂
Is there a limit to how many referrals I can generate using this course?
We like this question (: Of course not! No limit. As long as you’re building strong relationships, the referrals will keep coming. The better you invest in your network, the better it’ll invest in you.

Will I need to invest in networking events or conferences?
Nope! No money needed to be spent on big events or awkward mixers. Our system is all about leveraging the people you already know. (And no, we do not tell you to just pick up the phone and call everyone you know…)

When is the best time to ask for referrals?
It’s better to ask for referral partners, than just referrals. We teach you all of the communication necessary to to start and continue conversations with potential referral partners. No more awkward referral requests after a deal closes or while walking out of your meeting.
Can I apply the strategies to partnerships I already have?
Of course! If you’ve got relationships already in place, we’ll show you how to strengthen them and turn them into real referral machines. In fact, one of our systems is called the “perpetuating referral givers system”. AKA – we teach you how to get people who already give you referrals, to give more. 
Will this course help me attract high-value clients?
Absolutely. This isn’t just about getting more referrals; it’s about getting the right referrals—higher quality, better fit, and pre-sold.

Breaking into a luxury industry? Relationships + referrals matter MOST. We have some creative ideas for you.

Can this work if my business is brand new or just launching?
Yes! Starting fresh? Perfect. You can build your referral system right from the ground up, creating long-term, reliable partnerships from day one. If you’ve been in the game a long time, you’ll already have a network to work from – which is amazing!
How will this course directly impact my business growth?
I’ll let a testimonial speak to that:

“Referrals are still the most cost effective way to grow sales, and there is no greater way to turn clients into referral machines than by following the Gift·ology System.”

Do I need a CRM?
You don’t have to have one, but if you do, great! We’ll provide you a Partner Playbook to use with your CRM or you can fly solo with it. Either way works.
Can I complete the Course at my own Pace?
Yep! This course is totally self-paced. And only ~4 hours of total video training. You could binge it all at once, or take your time, and take action as you go (which we recommend).
How much time should I expect to dedicate each week to run the referral systems?
It’s flexible. Those who see the best results, after learning the systems, spend 60-90 minutes a week running them. Even small, consistent relational habits can lead to exponential growth.
Can I ask questions or get feedback from the instructor?
Absolutely! We offer you 2 community support spaces where you can ask questions and get feedback as you go through the course.
How is the course delivered?
Referral Partner Transformation is delivered via video, on our training platform, Circle.so.

There’s even an app, so you can make progress while waiting in your kids school pick-up line (:

Can I get a discount for enrolling in multiple courses?

For purchases of less than 5 courses, the only discount available is the one offered in this exclusive enrollment window.

How long does my access last?
