SolarShare is happy to announce that Adam Popper is the winner of Referral Month after referring four of his friends and family and raising $16,000 of investment for SolarShare. That's a lot of solar panels!
We said we would reward the winner with a great prize, and we delivered! This year's prize was a bicycle donated by Opus and Urbane Cyclist. In the spirit of co-operatives, Adam took the bright shiny prize and gifted it to one of his referrals - his sister Niki Popper. Now she is enjoying the new bike and being a SolarShare member (she is busy referring two more friends). What was Adam's secret to successful referrals? "Persistence," he explained. "5% is a great investment and it wasn't hard to convince people, but I called, emailed, and text-messaged my friends until they followed through." We encourage everyone to help increase co-op membership. Continue referring friends and family for $20 prizes from Urbane Cyclist, MEC, or West End Food Co-op.
