About this program
With this program, you can encourage your top brand advocates to keep sharing with friends to receive additional rewards. By implementing this program, you can:- Increase active customer revenue
- Increase premium customer revenue
- Increase retention
Prerequisites
- An active Mention Me referral program that rewards existing customers
- A Mention Me / Dotdigital enabled integration
- Knowledge of Liquid Scripting
Supported channels
Basic workflow
- An advocate of your brand successfully refers a friend and gets their reward.
- A reminder email (subject to consent) is sent to share again with their unique share link.

Steps to create the program
Step 1: Create the program flow
- Create the Start Criteria with the following settings:
- Enrolment schedule: Set to run daily at 23:00

- Enrollment rule: Base on a segment called “Mention Me Referrer Rewarded today” that looks for customers who received their referrer reward today from the insight collection
mm-received_referrer_reward.

- Enrollment limits: Set to Re-enrol contacts after 1 day to allow ongoing reminders for additional sharing and rewards.

-
Add wait delays before and after emails:
- Before 1st send: Include delay if segment overlaps with another reminder program
- After 1st send: Add wait before sending a follow-up email
-
Suggested wait periods:
- 1st email — 4 days after the segment trigger
- 2nd email — 14 days after the 1st email

- Add an Email campaign and select one of the Pre-configured emails from Mention Me. The two pre-configured emails can be found under Triggered Emails:


- Add an Exit Program after the last email send

Step 2: Add content to each email
During the Mention Me Dotdigital integration, 2 triggered email campaigns are created using:- A Dotdigital insight collection called
mm-received_referrer_reward - Liquid Scripting to personalise the email content

- Update the emails to include your imagery and styling
- Adjust tone of voice to suit your brand
Template content
Each email includes a Liquid markup block to identify the latest referral event:
