Referral best practices
It’s better to get something than a discount on something.
Give an incentive
If you can only reward one, reward the new user.
Two-sided are best
Make it incredibly easy for users to share.
One-step sharing is best
People share when it makes them look good.
Appeal to ego

Users click and share because
something drives an emotion in them.
In general, positive emotions make
people share (the happier the post, the
more likely it is to be shared)
Negative emotions drive more clicks.
High arousing emotions drive more
shares

Enable users to create things they are proud of, and prompt them to share those
creations.
Default sharing text should highlight how awesome the user is. Make sharing
links rich deep links: the actual content should show up in Facebook, Twitter,
SMS, and e-mail.
Create a Brand YOUR users what to be associated with.
