What are the best 'trigger moments' for asking for a referral?

The most effective moments are right after a user's 'aha' moment, after achieving a specific milestone, following a positive support interaction, or during a renewal/upgrade cycle.

Can this skill help prevent referral fraud and abuse?

Yes, it provides strategies for technical prevention like device fingerprinting and IP monitoring, as well as policy-based solutions like delayed payouts and activity thresholds.

What is the difference between a referral and an affiliate program?

Referral programs typically focus on existing customers sharing with their personal network for rewards or credit, while affiliate programs target third-party creators and influencers who promote products for cash commissions.

How do I calculate the right incentive for my referral program?

This skill uses the formula: Max Reward = (Customer LTV × Gross Margin) - Target CAC to ensure your incentives are profitable while remaining attractive to users.
