For people to get recommendations of friends, they must have friends using the app, so you have a strong network problem. Facebook solved that restricting the initial users to the students in Harvard. How are you planning to get an initial cluster of users?

Agree. This is a big problem to me as well because at core I am developer and do not like marketing.

But to address, I have implemented invite only. So new user can only jump in if they have already someone in.

This is just an experiment from me, let me know if you have any advice.
