Fresh Referral Recipe: Import Your Facebook Friends

Revaluate, Facebook, Referral

Referrals Jubilee: Sweet Facebook connections and Revaluate secret sauce.

Working the Revaluate booth at a conference recently one of our customers BLEW ME AWAY.

You probably have 1 or 2 thousand Facebook friends, perhaps more, right?

Well, we built Revaluate to identify likely movers in your database – but since Facebook no longer has an “export” tool or an API there was no way to get your best network  into Revaluate other than one at a time email entry. Ain’t nobody got time for that!

Our client told me he found a work around, that he now is using Revaluate to identify college buddies from Facebook that are likely to move across the country.  Using this method, he generated 5 referrals in 3 months!

This is not just a cherry on top of Revaluate, it’s a whole cherry dessert!

I will warn you – its not a one step recipe, but it is easy, and the results taste like sweet success.

Let us show the Referral Jubilee Recipe – you how to track your Facebook contacts, so you can know who is most likely to move.

    I tried this today and got this message :
    Choose the format you would like to export your contacts in. All contacts except your Facebook contacts will be exported. 🙁
