You can use Makerble to store the contact details of your referral agencies and record the details of the referrals they made, i.e.

• who - the people they referred

• when - the date they made the referral

• where - the project of yours they referred someone to

Part 1 - create two Contact Forms to store referrers' details

Form for Referral Agencies

3. Add these system-fields to your form (these are fields automatically generated by Makerble)

   1. Upload picture (you can use this to store their logo)

   2. Address

4. Add these fields:- (if you don’t already have them in your organisation’s library, you can create them)

   1. Email address

   2. Telephone number

5. If there are other fields you want to add, add them too

Form for staff at the Referral Agencies

Part 2 - create a project for Referrers

Part 3 - create a Relationship Type

You can connect the referral staff to the Referral Agency they work for

Part 4 - start adding details of your referral agencies and their staff

• Simply click Create in the top menu, select Contact and in the Choose a Project dropdown list, select Referral Partners then choose which form you want to use depending on whether its a person or agency you are storing

Open
