About this template

Coaching practices grow on trust passed person to person, and thin air thanks lose that trust. This registration form captures who referred a new client, how they connect, what the client hopes to work on and how the referrer likes to be acknowledged — keeping every warm introduction credited, GDPR-minded and likely to happen again.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do referrers always want to be named?
No — the thanks-preference field captures exactly that: a private note, public credit, or nothing at all.
Can it track which sources bring repeat clients?
Yes — accumulating registrations shows which referrers send ongoing, well-fit introductions.
Should we offer referral rewards?
Only where professional rules allow; record any courtesy consistently, never as payment for a person.
Is it free to reuse?
Yes. Copy it into your FormLM workspace for each incoming referral.
What if the client does not know who referred them?
Keep the referrer field internal; the client need not see the source log at all.
Why bother logging referrals at all?
Trust is the practice's real asset; a logged, thanked introduction tends to produce the next one, while uncredited ones quietly stop.
