How To Send Referred Users (The Person Invited) from Referral Factory to ServiceTitan

Referral Factory can automatically create a new booking in ServiceTitan when someone signs up using their friend's referral link. That way, your team can pick up the referred lead without skipping a beat!

Step 1 (Optional): Create Custom Fields in ServiceTitan

 → Should you wish to store additional referral data related to your referred user, create the relevant custom fields inside ServiceTitan. You could, for example, create custom fields to house information like:

• {Referrer First Name}: The name of the person who referred them
• {Referrer Email Address}: The email address of the person who referred them
• {Referral Campaign}: The name of your Referral Factory campaign (useful if you're running multiple campaigns)
• {Referral Link}: The referral link automatically generated for the new user (useful if you will enrol newly referred leads into your referral program) 

Step 2: Navigate to the Settings for the Person Invited

→ Click Edit Campaign to enter the campaign builder. 

→ Navigate to the Integrations step in the bottom navigation bar. 

→ Scroll down until you see the option to configure settings for the Person Invited. 

Step 3 (Optional): Set Your Qualification Rules

→ If you would like to automatically qualify the Person Invited when they convert in ServiceTitan, set the rules that will trigger the automatic qualification. If you choose to qualify users using a different method, simply leave this section blank.

Step 4: Map Your Fields 

→ Map the fields from Referral Factory to your ServiceTitan fields using the dropdown select options.

Step 5: Define Your Default Fields

→ Add a new field for {Is First Time Client}, which is required by ServiceTitan to make the booking. Select {Yes} or {No} from the dropdown menu. 

→ You also have the option to define any additional default fields for when the booking is created inside ServiceTitan. 

Step 6 (Optional): Attach Information About The Person Referring

→ You also have the option to attach information about the person who made the referral. Remember that you may need to create custom data fields inside ServiceTitan to house this data.

→ Click Save or Next.

How To Test Whether Your Integration Is Working

Step 1: Sign Up As the Person Referring

→ Open your campaign link in a private window or incognito mode and sign up as the Person Referring. Please note that Referral Factory uses cookies, so if you have already visited your campaign link, you may see the incorrect step. 

→ Be sure to use an email address that does not already exist as a user in your referral campaign and, depending on your settings, does not already exist in ServiceTitan. We recommend using plus addressing to make sure that each email address is unique and easily searchable. For example, yourname+personreferring+date@yourdomain.com.

Step 2: Sign Up As the Person Invited

→ Next, open the referral link generated for the Person Referring and sign up as the Person Invited. 

→ Be sure to use an email address that does not already exist as a user in your referral campaign and, depending on your settings, does not already exist in ServiceTitan. We recommend using plus addressing to make sure that each email address is unique and easily searchable. For example, yourname+personinvited+date@yourdomain.com.

Step 3: Check For the Person Invited In Referral Factory

→ Navigate to the Users tab and check that both the Person Referring and the Person Invited have been created in Referral Factory.

Step 4: Check For New Bookings in ServiceTitan

→ Check that the Booking for the Person Invited is created in ServiceTitan with all the data you have chosen to map across. Note that it can take up to 30 minutes for the data to pass from Referral Factory to ServiceTitan.
