Referrals are a great way to build your business, and there’s an art to generating more referrals. A previous guest on the OneCoach Expert Insight interview, Jill Lublin is CEO of the strategic consulting firm Promising Promotion, and author of the new book Get Noticed — Get Referrals, which shows you how to become more influential using an intuitive, people-oriented approach.

Jill shared with us her top 10 tips for getting noticed, and here they are:
