You can invite anyone with the referral link to complete a survey.
How a Referral Survey Link works
A referral survey link displays the questions across two pages:
Page 1 is displays a Contact Form of your choice
Page 2 displays your survey’s questions
When to use a Referral Survey Link
Use the Referral Link method of inviting people to complete a survey when you want to:
capture demographic information about them rather than simply gathering their opinions
and/or be able to segment your opinion questions (the ones in the Survey part) by respondents' demographic characteristics
If you do not need to capture demographic information, use the Anonymous Survey Link instead.
Combine multiple surveys into a single Referral Survey Link
With the Referral Link survey method you can also get respondents to complete multiple surveys from the one link. Each subsequent survey appears as an additional page.
How to invite people to complete surveys using a Referral Link
You need to turn on Referral Links for your organisation
You need to a Contact Form that will appear on Page 1
You need a Survey that will appear on Page 2
Once you have those three, you can create a Referral Link which contains the
Contact Form
Survey
Any additional surveys that will appear on subsequent pages
Once the Referral Link is created, you can copy the Referral Link and share it using the methods of your choice
