 Imagine:
As someone who shares Nostr with friends, would YOU be interested to also share your favorite nostr or bitcoin brands with the people you invite?

 Would you use? 
 Nope. 

I would just chuck them into the deep end like I did. Anyone I invite is gonna swim freely after a while.  
 What does “after a while” mean? What would you need to get there? Tools to recommend clients and relays? Suggested follow lists for different friends? What about setting up a zap wallet or posting images and videos? What about all the “other stuff”?

And how would you like to be “compensated” or “rewarded” for all this onboarding work? Product discounts? Free demos? Open feedback channels for product testing? Or just fat zaps?

I’m thinking big here. What’s the win win win for social onboarding? 
 Not likely, I will share people for them to follow not brands.  
 Would you be “more” interested in connecting your invited friends with “brands” that had a human rep active on Nostr? Are you even interested in “affiliate” or “influencer” marketing? Imagine how that might work best for you? … 
 i think i would 
 How do you imagine this could work out best for you? Would “personal connection” to product reps help? Free samples? Discount coupons codes to share? Product testing feedback channels?

I’m interested to use this platform to spark “more” interaction between Nostr and Bitcoin adjacent businesses and their target audiences. 

How can we leverage “social onboarding” to create win win win scenario for businesses, users, and the Nostr network?
