Best Referral Partners is a ranked list of the people in your network you interact with most, based on how often you meet in person and message each other. It doesn't track actual referrals sent or received, that's reported separately through Impact.
Best Referral Partners is a ranked list, found in Your Network, that surfaces the people you interact with most. It's meant to help you spot your closest working relationships at a glance.
The ranking is based on activity, specifically, how often you've met in person and how often you message each other. It's essentially an engagement ranking of your closest relationships in the network, not a measure of business outcomes.
Despite the name, Best Referral Partners is not a record of actual business referrals you've sent or received. It reflects how often you interact with someone, not whether real business changed hands.
If you want credit for a real referral, a client relationship, or another concrete outcome with someone in your network, report it through Impact, the success story feature. That's the place actual outcomes are recorded and, once confirmed, count toward recognition.
We know the name understandably suggests referral tracking. It's worth being upfront: today, Best Referral Partners measures how often you interact with someone, not whether you've actually referred business to each other. If you're looking for referral credit, Impact is the feature you want.
Does Best Referral Partners track referrals I've actually sent?
No. It ranks people by how often you meet and message, not by real referrals exchanged.
How do I get credit for a real referral or client I gained?
Report it through Impact, the success story feature, where it can be confirmed by the other person and counted.
What exactly does the ranking measure?
How frequently you meet in person and message with each person in your network, essentially an activity ranking.
