There are many different things you can do, but i find that it is difficult to go to a business and say hey if you refer cliets to me i am going to give you this, i find it works better as a they refer somone and you send thema voucher or somthing and they are like wow i wasnt expecting this and that is what gets them refering more people.

some ideas i have had in this way is, of course depending on the business is a free one for the person making the purchase for the business. A gift voucher for a local department store, or A restaurant. Free petrol Voucher or somthing along that line.

Or if the product generates a relatively good profit margin even as far a Weekend holiday somewhere (value depending on profit of course).

The one thing you have to be sure is that you can afford to give away the item that you decide on, if you are giving someone a holiday worth $300, the referal they make needs to probably make that back for to 3 -4 times over. So just try and be conscious of what you are giving and what you are getting. I know you are trying to reward but at the same time you have to make yourself a profit.
