Frequently Asked Questions

Your referral link includes a 90-day tracking cookie. This means that if someone clicks your link but does not sign up immediately, you will still receive credit for the referral if they become a client within 90 days. This generous tracking window gives your referrals time to decide, while still ensuring you are rewarded for the introduction.

Email marketing can be a high converting tool for many businesses, whether B2B, B2C, product based or service based. Soto Group offers a variety of email marketing services to help you connect with your audience, nurture leads, and drive conversions.

We design eye-catching email templates in your platform of choice (we can help you choose the right one for your needs), we can write engaging content and analyse results and trends to optimise send times, contact themes and audience preferences. Our team will work with you to develop email campaigns that deliver results and are KPI driven.

If a referral you introduce is already in communication with our team, we may not be able to attribute the referral unless you have made a clear and documented introduction. To avoid any issues, we recommend making a warm introduction by email or phone whenever possible, so there is clear visibility on your role in the connection.

Assessing the performance of your brand involves evaluating various key indicators. One crucial aspect to consider is brand awareness, which measures the level of recognition and recall your brand has among your target audience. Monitoring metrics such as aided and unaided brand awareness, social media mentions, and website traffic can provide insights into how well your brand is recognised and remembered.

Another important factor is brand perception, which involves evaluating how consumers perceive your brand in terms of attributes like quality, reliability, trustworthiness, and relevance. Surveys, focus groups, and social media listening can help you understand consumer perceptions and identify areas for improvement.

Brand loyalty is also essential for determining brand performance. Assess the level of customer loyalty and repeat business your brand generates by monitoring metrics such as customer retention rates, repeat purchase behaviour, and Net Promoter Score (NPS). High levels of brand loyalty indicate that your brand is successfully engaging and retaining customers.

Market share analysis is another useful way to gauge brand performance. Evaluate your brand’s market share relative to competitors in your industry and track changes over time to assess your brand’s competitive position. Additionally, measuring brand equity, or the intangible value and influence your brand holds in the marketplace, can provide insights into your brand’s overall performance.

Monitoring customer satisfaction levels is crucial for assessing brand performance. Collect feedback through surveys, reviews, and customer support interactions to gauge customer satisfaction and identify areas for improvement. Finally, evaluating the financial impact of your brand on overall business performance is essential. Assess metrics such as revenue growth, profit margins, return on investment (ROI), and customer lifetime value (CLV) attributable to your brand to understand its contribution to your business’s success.

There are a number of digital tools that can help you monitor your brands performance such as Qualtrics, BrandWatch, SEMRush, AHREFS, Hootsuite and many more.

When we work with brands we can build out brand monitoring systems suitable for your size and goals.

No, there is no minimum payout threshold. Commissions are paid according to the agreed terms, regardless of the size of the project you have referred.
