Word of mouth is still the best.

Everyone knows that the best form of marketing is…WORD OF MOUTH. How can we capitalize on that? At Nomad, we had an outdated referral program. It was slow to pay, (we required a user to complete their job assignment, up to 13 weeks, before we paid out), it was hidden, and it was labor intensive on the back end.

I worked with marketing, legal, finance, and P/E to help roll out an entirely new referral program. We rethought the whole process, changed the way we incentivize, and launched it to great success. It led to 10% more applications, and 10+ more job offers during the 30 day trial program.

One of the biggest changes was adjusting payout before the traveler went on assignment. Users could now get paid after referring and getting a friend to apply for a job. As well as, after the assignment is complete. This creates better engagement throughout the process. It provides immediate satisfaction.

This is also a double sided reward program, meaning both parties get rewarded. Further incentivizing the referral core loop.

This is an authenticated feature that can only be found by creating an account with Nomad Health.

Organic traffic…the gold standard.

Google SEO specs say the best SEO pages have the best UX. Personally, I have not found that to be anywhere near the truth. Most SEO pages are garbage. Loaded with repeat content, ads, and unnecessary filler to meet the algorithm.

Nomad Health had an initiative to boost our organic content via SEO pages. We want to create templates that we could replicate and make thousands of sites that held unique, specific content. Working with our SEO and marketing teams I created several versions of pages that were specific to job category and job specialty.

We have launched 1,000+ SEO pages that are elegant, well organized, and currently boosting our organic traffic by 50%. There are more pages getting ready to be released.

Some of these pages can be found here, here, and here.
