RE: Steemit.com referral program, 10% for all time, paid in steem power

in #freedom9 years ago (edited)

so then 10% of all rewards would have to go towards paying for the referral program, regardless if the person was referred by someone one or not

Sort:  

I like that. Then it is less visible to everyone joining. Possibly take 3% out of the curation rewards pool and 7% out of the author rewards pool to fund the referral reward program. I feel like the rewards would have to remain on a single level kind of like how DirectTV or a lot of companies do referral programs. It if spans multiple levels then people will get an weary feeling when being pitched to join because they will think it is Multi-Level Marketing. The psychology of the platform could certainly change from it but I think if it was primarily done with affiliate links it would be a little more in the background and not an in your face pitch. I signed up more than 30 people for Coinbase through their referral program. I pushed the traffic there with free Google Adsense credits! Heheheheheh
