Thanks for hunting @thisdickie, it looks really straight forward, I can see anyone setting up a referral campaign in just a few minutes. A useful tool you're giving away for free @demelvin @kevinyun -- what's your long term vision for GrowSurf?

Thanks @abadesi! No long term vision just yet. Although there is a long list of features. Listening to our users and continuing to improve the product is our only foreseeable future at the moment.

I'll ask the obvious question, because this looks great, how long is it going to be free? If it ever shuts down, will we be able to get a good dump of all of our data? Thanks for providing this for free.

@gregghoush One of the reasons we built this was because we always thought there should be a free referral service out there. That's why we intend on always having a forever free plan. The plan for the future will probably be a premium plan (remove badge, etc). As far as data goes, you can always export your contacts as a CSV at anytime. If we ever shut down, we'll give you a lengthy heads up so that you have enough time to do so :)

I was looking for something similar literally yesterday. It's good at its simplicity - collecting form values & keeping record of referrals.

@yashafromrussia Awesome to hear! This is exactly the reason why we built this. Please free to contact us if you have any questions. Thanks!

Great tool! but it shows data in only one page. It don't show content if it's over one page. Especially experience.

Hi @hafis_in thanks for checking out GrowSurf! When you say "It don't show content if its over one page". Can you please elaborate on this? I apologize in advance if I am missing an obvious point. Thanks!

@demelvin Does it integrate only with Mailchimp? Or we can connect to other services as well?
Derek Melvin
Maker
Hi @narek_vardanyan Currently MailChimp is our only integration. We are planning for others in future releases so check back with us soon. Thanks for checking out GrowSurf!

I have been working with a ton of different referral programs for the past year and Growsurf takes pretty much all the development work out of setting up a seemingly integrated referral program.

I was set up in less than 12 hours, and that includes making user journeys and finishing design and copy of the landing pages.

Most of what I have been building myself over tons, and tons of iterations are available within the platform, and its very easy to use.

I will continue to push for more features, specifically towards ongoing referral programs, as this seems to be missing in the platform as of now. Also, translation files set up with a platform like Crowdin or an open translation community would be greatly appreciated.

To summarise:

hats off to you guys, for building what I think is a very unique product.

Pros:

Fantastic interface and features, easy to customize for a specific user journey and ridiculously quick to set up with copy/paste code.

Cons:

Limited campaign goals and documentation. No chat within the platform. Not built for translations.

Can users have their own dashboard?
Kevin Yun
Maker
@tuanh_beu thereโ€™s no dashboard for your contacts to see, however you can customize your website to have a widget show up for returning contacts. They will be able to see their referral status and progress, and copy their unique share link as well.

Love the idea! I use Viral Loops but will definitely give it a go for my next contest
