This is one of the best things you can do to ensure that referral relationship will remain in place for a very long time! As the other comments suggest, even if the outcome doesn't result in a successful sale, giving feedback is still the best thing to do.

Knowing what does not work would help me to know what types of referrals to make, so truly even a bad experience can be a win-win.

Would you give that person another referral, even tho this one turned out badly? Hi Karen, your experience is a perfect case study.

Over the weekend someone followed up with me letting me know the outcome of a referral. It had turned out badly and I appreciated the follow-up so that I could act accordingly. Following up with the lead source keeps the relationship intact even if the outcome was not optimal. Hi Brad,
