RE: 100 SBD GIVEAWAY..... Win 20 SBDS for doing.... anything! Part II

Hiya GM,

As you know, Menē has been on my mind a lot lately. I am indeed working on some video content but it will be lil while yet... So, i have decided to enter this contest with a suggestion that will help you in your mission with Menē.

I have already had some people sign up with my ref code, but i think it could’a had even more if things were a little bit different.

As i understand it, i will receive a $50 Menē card when somebody who has signed up via my ref code makes their first purchase, and $10 for each subsequent purchase. This is great, but it is missing a crucial element — and that is the incentive for the new sign-up-ee.

My suggestion is this: (at no extra cost to Menē) split that initial incentive between the two parties concerned. So if someone signs up with my code i get $25 and they get $25 — going fwd i would still benefit from the $10 subsequent purchases, but i would split the initial reward.

The problem is this: Human Psychology — without fail, everybody i have spoke to about this except close friends and family, have become suspicious that i was somehow benefitting from their money — or potentially benefitting anyway. If i was able to say to someone: hey, you gotta’ check this site out, and if you sign up through my code you’ll get $25!!! If you sign up without referral you won’t get any reward...

This i believe would make the whole thing a little more exciting, and would encourage more people to take that initial step. Because if someone is trying to “pitch” me something and there’s nothing in it for me, then i’m usually going to walk... certainly telling people how I can benefit through them spending money is not the greatest offer going. But if they can essentially get free gold from my offer, then that is an entirely different story.

Hope you liked “what i can do” — and look fwd to what you think 😁👍

Cheers GM!
