According to this article, people decide where to shop online when friends give them suggestions. Sounds like a great time to rack up some SR referral money. :)

I have been trying to get people with everything I can. I am just at a loss right now. People all need the money but they are afraid to try something new. If anyone has any tips go for it.

Thanks for the reminder, I recruited someone 2 weeks ago, I have to go see how she is doing.

A lot of people who don't do much with SR during the year all of a sudden shop through us at Christmas. So even if you have old referrals, you might see surprise credits over the next month. :) We've seen a nice little increase in signups due to the Facebook activity. People like to do what their friends are doing.

It kind of depends on the email. For things that are freebies and contests, we sometimes break even. We pretty much take a loss on all of the others because we have thousands of members who do nothing but wait for paid clicks.
