Customer Reference Request Generator — illustrative example

INPUT
Customer has allowed a completed project to be discussed privately. Ask about a new 15-minute reference call with one prospective customer next week; participation is optional.

RESULT
Would you be comfortable joining a 15-minute reference call with one prospective customer next week about the project we completed? We would share the audience and questions with you beforehand and discuss only the private project scope you approved. Please feel free to decline; no explanation is needed. If you are interested, let me know a convenient time.

REVIEW
A reference request should respect consent and the customer's time. Explain the audience, format and expected commitment without assuming participation.

This is a teaching example, not a live execution record.
