As always, thanks for the offer again! My question is this: We have had a ton of great feedback suggesting that we redesign the creating new acct UI, which is in process. What we are really stuck with is where to add SOCIAL options. We offer FB connect on the create new acct screen (TW coming) but where to add 'like'/follow and invite your friends in the flow is not popping out at us. Any suggestions? http://www.uencounter.me
Thanks!
You could offer new FB account users to "Like" you as a final (optional) step (maybe in the Welcome modal) and that might not be too pushy. But maybe you should remind them in a few weeks of active use to invite friends and "Like" you again (if they didn't already) at that time. They'll be more familiar with your brand and service and can share their appreciation more confidently.
