How I'd narrow it down

Before booking demos, I'd compare each vendor on five things:

• Program type: Referrals only, or reviews, testimonials, references, and other advocacy activities too?
• Integrations: Does it connect to your CRM, customer success platform, and marketing automation tools?
• Rewards: Can it handle your preferred incentives and automate fulfillment?
• Measurement: Can it attribute qualified leads, pipeline, and revenue to advocacy?
• Total cost: Subscription, implementation, integration work, and reward expenses.

One question that would help me recommend the best two or three: What kind of company are you running this program for?

1. Company type

B2B SaaS / technology

B2B services / professional services

B2C / ecommerce / consumer brand

Other

2. Primary goal

Customer referrals and lead generation

Both referrals and broader advocacy

Testimonials, reviews, case studies, and references

3. Monthly software budget

Under $250

$250–$1,000

$1,000+

Enterprise / custom budget

4. Approximate program size

Fewer than 1,000 customers or advocates

1,000–10,000

More than 10,000
