Make a Referral Week is an entrepreneurial approach to  stimulating the small business economy one referred business at  a time. The goal for the week is to generate 1000 referred leads to 1000 deserving small businesses in an effort to highlight the impact of a simple action that could blossom into millions of dollars in new business. Small business is the lifeblood and job-creating engine of the economy and merits the positive  attention so often saved for corporate bailout stories.

The week long event also features a killer list of referral experts providing valuable marketing advice.
