Frequently asked

When do I get my $100 credit?
Your credit is applied to your next invoice once the referred business signs up for any paid plan. You'll see it as a line item: "Referral credit — [Business Name] — $100." Turnaround is within 30 days of their signup date.
Does the business have to be in Macomb County?
Yes — we're currently focused on Macomb County and the surrounding Metro Detroit area. We serve businesses in Sterling Heights, Clinton Township, Shelby Township, Warren, Utica, Chesterfield, and nearby cities.
Is there a limit on how many businesses I can refer?
No limit. Refer 3 businesses that sign up and you get $300 in credits. Credits stack and can carry forward across multiple invoices if your credit exceeds a single month's invoice.
What does the referred business get?
The referred business gets our full Preview First experience — we build them 3–5 sample posts for their business before asking for anything. If they sign up for the Starter plan, they get their first month at $197 instead of $297 (a $100 savings). Growth and Premium plan pricing is unchanged.
Do I need to actively sell them on it?
Nope. Just give us the name and we take it from there. If you want to give them a heads up that we'll be reaching out, great — but it's not required. The free sample posts do the selling.
What if the business doesn't sign up?
Credits are only issued when a referral converts to a paid client. There's no penalty or issue — we just won't apply the credit until they sign up. Sometimes it takes a few follow-ups, so don't give up on a referral too early.
