Back in 2015 we were searching for referral program software that would fit the needs of our SaaS business. Our vision was to gather pre-launch email signups from referrals, and seamlessly integrate unique links into our product post-launch. We were looking for a modern solution that could let us easily plug-and-play referrals. The available options in the market did not have what we were looking for, and we waited patiently for years for someone to build this.
We ended up creating our refer-a-friend program in-house. The initial scope of work we had estimated to build the referral logic was very low. After all, it was simply just tracking referrals. But as we started designing out the customer referral flows, we found ourselves wishing for an out-of-the-box solution.
GrowSurf is the referral software that we always wanted as a SaaS startup. We're genuinely excited to democratize referral marketing for all internet businesses, and we can't wait to help you take your growth to the next level.
Referral marketing software for tech startups and newsletter publishers
"I had tried several referral marketing platforms before committing to GrowSurf. The UI/UX is much better than any of the competitors in the market, and integration was done quickly without much developer help. You can't beat it."
"We wanted a cost-savvy solution that could be managed and changed easily without the help of IT/devs. GrowSurf provided us exactly what our business needed! They saved me and our development team valuable time by providing an easy-to-use solution of building an internal system, with minimal coding. With GrowSurf’s support, I was able to set up the entire program within a day."
"The integration process was a breeze and GrowSurf customer support was super responsive and helpful. There was always somebody available to help us with any issues we encountered."
"The most important thing for us was that the referral program had to be something that we could build and execute without having to have someone technical on the team. GrowSurf’s ease of implementation was pretty awesome. If we had paid someone to build our referral program from scratch, it would have been a pretty expensive and web-dev-rate consuming process."
"I had about ten other referral software providers I looked at. We chose GrowSurf because it was something we could customize without having to get developers to build the whole thing out. The price was another big plus for us."
"GrowSurf is residual lead gen that we don't have to think about. We wanted something that we could put on autopilot. For every one person who signs up for Draftbit, we essentially get 1.33 new leads from that person."
"We were looking for a flexible system to implement on the development side, and easy enough for our marketing team to be able to explore and manage. GrowSurf checked all the boxes."
"We use Growsurf to track ALL of our referrals, from paid acquisition channels to newsletters. GrowSurf is responsible for 15% of our new ARR from the last six weeks."
"Growsurf made it incredibly easy to launch a referral program for our new and existing users and website visitors. We considered a wide array of options and Growsurf was by far the best value for money."
"We ditched a lot of GrowSurf's competitors because they were too expensive. GrowSurf was our saving grace. We wouldn't have a referral program if we had to pay $1,000 per month."
"I've gotten a lot of questions about how we set up our referral program, and I always recommend GrowSurf. Since we implemented GrowSurf, 25% of new monthly subscriber growth is coming from referrals."
"GrowSurf customer support is a 10 out of 10. Their replies are real answers -- it's not the traditional customer support experience. They go above and beyond."
"I was looking for a referral program that would scale our newsletter and keep our subscribers engaged. GrowSurf was the solution for both of these things. Kevin and the entire GrowSurf team worked with me step by step to create a powerful and scalable referral program."
