They needed a scalable referral rewards system

Curipod knows that teachers don't get enough support for their amazing work in the classroom, and they wanted their marketing spend to go back to their users. So instead of running ads, they wanted a scalable program to reward their teachers for making referrals. They needed a system that would be easy to automate with universal digital rewards that would motivate everyone.

The solution: A Zapier and HubSpot connection

"Word of mouth works great, but it's better when you incentivize it."

The company was already using HubSpot for their managing their workflows. Curipod COO & Co-Founder Eirik Hernes Berre looked at a five minute Giftbit tutorial explaining how to use a simple Zapier integration to connect HubSpot with Giftbit.

 

Thanks to the Zapier connection, Giftbit is now the driving force behind Curipod's most effective growth channel.

They have an easy, scalable way to distribute rewards and grow their user base.
