    Hi. My company is Colorado Real Soap and I have a store in Crested Butte, Colorado and a website store at www.coloradorealsoap.com I make skin, body and hair care products. My customers love my products and refer people to me all the time. I am working on a review request email to send out to all of my customers.  I have not reached out for reviews yet cause there is an element I am trying to figure out.   
     
    I am using a program called ireviewcube. Its ok not great but it'll suit me.  I found you in my search to find an affordable (Free) way to do the following: when a customer provides positive feedback, they receive an automated email that I create  thanking them via the my ireviewcube account.  I want to include in that email an easy way for them to refer friends. BUT! I don't want them to send ME their peeps info, I want to have something they can send to them directly.  
     
    I played around with a refer a friend form I found on your site and signed up for the free service. I created a simple form using your invitation templates and tested it.  I realize that when someone fills it out, I get the email which is great, but I think I would get better response by having my customer directly forward my info to their peeps instead of asking them to send personal contact information to me. I would not like that so I won't do that either.   
     
    Is there a way for me to accomplish my goal using your jotforms?  I hope so!!  Valerie
     
    Suggestions are greatly appreciated.

    I think what you want to achieve is a send a friend form.

    Here's a guide for that: https://www.jotform.com/help/128-How-to-Create-a-Custom-Send-a-Friend-Form

    If you want to include your personal or contact details in the email, you can simply customize the email notification template. Guide: https://www.jotform.com/help/430-How-to-Edit-the-Email-Template-for-Notifications-and-Autoresponders

    Hi thanks for the quick reply. 

    I checked that out first, it is how I found your platform. 

    Maybe you can help a bit more.  What I would like to do is include a link to form that my customers can use to share my website with their freinds and family. Can I make that form work this way?  If so how do I do that?

    This is what I would like my email to say (I am using Mailchimp lists to reach my customer base and would like the link in the email). My email would say "thanks so much please refer me to your friends using the link below, just fill in the email address of the people you would like to share my website with and they will receive a special email invitation to visit my online boutique with a discount coupon to use on their first visit.  

    Is this possible and if so can you help me figure how to make the form?

    Thanks

    Send yourself a message and check your mailbox.

    Once you are happy, you can clone the form:
