Town growth playbook

Change the defaults so any member can invite teammates (admins keep approval if they want it), and add a team reward: when an invite leads to a team member who stays active for two weeks, or a team that moves to a paid plan, the team pool and the inviter both get credits. Show a "your team: 2 of 3 active" bar in the team menu with a one-click invite, and keep the personal 2,000-credit reward as it is.

Personal referrals reward a $15-$49 upgrade; a team of three on Team is $177 a month or more and is the step the company is now built around. Rewarding the invite that forms the team puts the incentive where the revenue is.

[ ] Default access rule: Invite members -> All members (approval optional)
[ ] Team reward: credits to pool + inviter after 14 active days
[ ] "2 of 3 active" bar in the team menu
[ ] Invite prompt after a routine is shared in a thread
[ ] Referral docs updated (personal + team)
[ ] Dashboard: invites per member, teams reaching 3 active

• Admins want control over who joins

  Keep an approval setting and same-domain-only invites by default.

• Reward gaming with inactive seats

  Pay only after two weeks of real use.

• Your websiteReferral docs ("Invite Friends & Earn Credits", updated October 21, 2026): a friend who signs up through your link gets "a 14-day Pro trial instead of the standard 7 days", and you earn "2,000 Town Credits" when they start paying. But "Team and enterprise plans don't qualify. Only paid personal plans earn the reward." Rewards go to your personal balance "even if a team covers your Town plan".Source
• Your websiteTeams docs: new teams start on Team Free; members keep their personal plans and "a free team grants no credits of its own".

Make the table and FAQ agree on which plan has what. Add a short "Pro for three people vs Team for three" panel: price, pooled credits (18,000 vs 15,000), shared routines, team integrations and one bill. Feed the 30-second recommender the number of people who will use Town.

Clear, consistent pricing pages convert better, and the team panel answers the one question between a Pro user and a team plan.

• Panel makes Pro look cheaper

Write fair, dated comparison pages around Town's real difference: one Townie per person that learns its person, assistant-to-assistant handoffs, team routines and the privacy defaults. Include a switching guide and a routine to import common workflows.

Comparison searches are high intent, and AI assistants use these pages to explain how products differ.

When a paid user reaches 80% and 100% of credits, show one card with three choices: raise the cap (with a suggested amount), move to the next plan with the credit difference shown, or start a team with pooled credits. Use the per-routine usage table to say which routine used the most.

A clear choice at the moment of need converts better than a setting page, and it keeps routines running.

Interview five teams with three or more active members: what they hand off, which routines they run and hours saved. Publish short stories with the exact routines as installable links, and add two quotes to the homepage and the Sales and Founders pages.

Peer proof is what turns a team trial into a company purchase, and installable routines make each story usable.

Run a monthly builder night per city around one role (founders, sellers, recruiters). Attendees build a routine live; the best five become a role pack linked from that role page, with builders credited. Record a 10-minute recap.

Add an optional, tasteful line to outgoing Townie messages ("Scheduled by Bo, Dana's Townie at Town") with a link to a page showing what that recipient's own Townie could do. Let users switch it off, and track sign-ups by recipient domain.

When a new user shares a work domain with existing users, offer to join or create the company team (with the existing users' consent), and show the team features they gain. Send the earliest user a note that colleagues have arrived.

On day two and day five, suggest one routine based on the tools the user connected and what they asked for, with a one-tap install. Track trial-to-paid by number of active routines at day seven.

Give builders credits per active install (for example 50 credits per install still active after two weeks), a public builder profile and a monthly leaderboard. Top builders get early access and a seat at builder nights.

Build a company score from usage: active users per domain, shared routines, team integrations, pooled-credit burn and limit hits. Route the top companies to sales each week with a summary of who uses what, and track win rate by score.

Product-led companies sell best where usage already exists, and a score keeps a small team focused.

• HiringSoftware Engineer, Growth (San Francisco, posted September 2, 2026): "Town is a product-led growth (PLG) company, and the product itself is our best growth channel." The role covers "pulling people into Town, getting individuals onto teams, getting teams onto paid, and turning teams into enterprise customers"; "invites per user, free-to-paid conversion, whether credits are calibrated right"; "Word of mouth is our most powerful growth lever"; "ensuring every team lands with at least 3 active members"; and "enterprise SSO integration (a near-term must-have for us)".Source

Make one of them a live demo: email it a real question ("help me plan a team offsite") and get a useful reply showing how a Townie works, with a sign-up link to connect your own accounts. Rate-limit it and keep it free of any account access.

Trying the product by email, the way Town itself works, is a low-friction first touch that matches the brand.
