Having Friends Who Teach Pays Off in New Cerebellum Corp. ‘Kelso’s Choice’ Friend Referral Program

Both referring and referred educators save $50 on K-5 conflict resolution guidance resources with each purchase

San Francisco, CA– January 31, 2012 – Cerebellum Corporation, the producer and distributor of the award-winning Standard Deviants videos, has launched the Kelso’s Choice Refer-a-Friend program to help encourage awareness of the importance of teaching students conflict management skills. With increasing budget cuts, the referral program helps educators save money while sharing their knowledge of Kelso’s Choice.

The Refer-a-Friend program will offer educators $50 in credit on any Kelso’s Choice Conflict Management item each time they refer a new customer who purchases the 4th Edition Kelso’s Choice Conflict Management Curriculum or the Kelso’s Choice Conflict Management Complete Kit Series. A $50 credit will also be given to the referred customers.

“Several educators using Kelso’s Choice are already referring colleagues, parents or friends to the conflict management kits and turning them on to its benefits. The Refer-a-Friend program makes these conversations pay off,” said James Rena, President of Cerebellum Corporation. “Educators work on a very grassroots level and want to know what is working in their colleagues’ classrooms. This program will give that extra boost in savings that budget-tight schools need to bring Kelso’s Choice into their classrooms.”

The Refer-a-Friend program begins now and will run through December 31, 2012. For complete details, visit the Kelso’s Choice website at http://kelsoschoice.com/resources/referral/.
