How OnlyFans become $18 Billion company. OnlyFans grew into a huge company using a simple idea: a referral program. Their founder, Tim Stokely, needed a way to bring creators to the platform. His solution? Pay people for inviting creators to join. This smart move turned OnlyFans into a billion-dollar success. Here’s how their referral program worked: 1. Feel Good: People felt proud, not awkward, about sharing the platform. 2. No Judgement: They made sure people didn’t feel criticized for recommending it. 3. Big Rewards: The more money their referrals made, the more the referrers earned. 4. Easy to Use: Referring others and getting paid was super simple. By rewarding people based on the success of their referrals, OnlyFans attracted top creators who helped the platform grow fast. The takeaway? A good referral program that’s simple, rewarding, and comfortable for users can help any business succeed!
