Grow customer referrals
Help more happy customers bring someone with them. Refix follows referrals from the invitation to the first purchase. It finds where the experience breaks down and checks whether each change brings customers who stay.
How the work unfolds
Day 0 Goal delegated
Grow referrals for our grocery app. Keep reward cost per new buyer steady and watch for abuse and poor retention.
Refix
I'll follow invitations through the first order and later purchases. I'll investigate gaps and draft tests. Changes to rewards, referral messages, or the invitation flow need your approval.
Day 4 Opportunity detected
Refix
Invited customers who install the app lose the referral offer before checkout. People opening the same link with the app already installed keep it. The gap appears between installation and account creation.
I've drafted a fix to preserve the invitation through signup. We can test it with the current reward amount and keep the same eligibility rules.
Day 5 Action agreed
Run it with a small group of eligible invitations first. Keep the fraud checks in place, and compare retained buyers after a month.
Refix
I've added the rollout scope and comparison group to the brief. I'll watch completed first orders and reward cost, then check whether these buyers return within 30 days.
Day 45 Outcome checked
Refix
More eligible invitations led to first orders in the test group. Reward cost per buyer held steady, abuse stayed within limits, and 30-day repeat purchase rates matched the control group.
Long-time customers rarely see the referral prompt after a successful delivery. I'm looking at that timing as the next opportunity to bring in more invitations.
