If you only do one thing, send your app users a notification. Our stats show notifications can increase shares by up to 300%! Our most successful templates are “Let’s get sharing” and “We need more caring people like you”, and Friday at 10am is the most effective time to send them.

Top tip: send a fresh notification regularly, changing the message each time so your team doesn't tune out.
