How the referral program works

It's that simple.

Launching a practice? Save money through referrals.

Our customers often discover our services through the positive experiences shared by their peers. Kielyr Luthi is the founder of Soteria Mental Health and a regular referrer of Paubox. She signed up for Paubox Email Suite when she launched her practice after hearing about Paubox through a referral.

Kielyr shared her experience, "It was almost immediately after [starting the practice]... it was the cheapest option to start with because of the referral credit. The biggest thing was cost, and then convenience, and Paubox met both of those with the referral credit."

Gretchen Murchison of Sunrise LCSW also first heard about Paubox through a referral when setting up her practice. "I decided to use Google Workspace... and found that the BAA did not cover outside communication. [Someone] had mentioned needing an add-on encryption service and somebody else had mentioned Paubox and had a referral link."

Gretchen explained, "The referral was really helpful because as a startup person and trying to figure out what my finances were going to be to get going... to have a $250 off coupon made a big difference."

"In terms of the referral program," Gretchen expressed, "I'm incredibly grateful for it. It has made life a lot easier for me and my budgeting a lot easier..."

An easy referral process

Paubox's referral program is straightforward and makes it easy to refer. "What I love about referring Paubox is that it's not a complicated process. I just share my experience and the referral link, and the rest takes care of itself."

Gretchen noted how the process fits seamlessly into her daily workflow: "Anytime it comes up, I jump in to give my experience... It's very easy to put a little badge on [my] website and not think about it."

Kielyr brings it up when networking with other providers in her area. "I think people are typically blown away by the fact that our overhead costs are really low, and all of our emails are encrypted, and it's all very seamless and very streamlined." A lot of other therapists that I've networked with are like, 'How do you do that? Tell me more.'"

Why you should recommend Paubox

Gretchen explains why she refers her fellow mental health professionals to Paubox. "I think for anybody who is in a small practice, cost is so important. So to be able to have something that even at full cost is not prohibitive, but with the referral program, it's almost a no brainer... and just to be able to go on about your daily business and not think twice about the security of communication that you have, it doesn't make sense to do anything different."

Tips on getting the most out of the Paubox referral program

Gretchen told us that she recommends Paubox "anytime it comes up. If anybody's asking about... how are people making sure that they're compliant as they're doing communication I jump in anytime I can just to give my experience. "

"I let people know that I have a Google Workspace account... and didn't want to have to change anything and was really excited that I found a company that supported it." She also tells people how "you've got a referral bonus, it can benefit you in the future if you're using it, and just how seamless everything is."

Facebook posts referral templates

One of the most common places to mention Paubox is in Facebook groups. Here are a few Facebook posts to help get your referrals jumpstarted.

I've been using Paubox for HIPAA compliant email, and it's a game-changer! It's really simple to connect to Google Workspace and completely seamless for my clients. They just get a normal email from me that they can read in their inbox. If you want to try it out, let Paubox know that I referred you, and you get $250 off.

Paubox vs Hushmail for HIPAA compliant email: I looked into both options and chose Paubox for a couple reasons. 1) Paubox connects to my Google Workspace so I didn't have to switch email platforms. 2) Paubox is so simple for my clients, they just get regular emails in their inbox from me. 3) Price-wise it made the most sense, especially because Paubox offers a $250 referral discount (normal price is $348/yr). If you want the referral discount, mention me when you sign up.

Hot tip: Get Paubox for your email. I didn't realize when I first started my practice that my email wasn't completely HIPAA compliant with Google (short story, they don't guarantee that every email is sent encrypted). Adding on Paubox ensures my email is secure and, more importantly, I'm always compliant. Someone here referred me to Paubox, and I got a $250 referral discount. If you want a discount, mention me when you sign up.
