Open **Creator console → Settings → Growth** for **Discovery, Invite, Metrics,** and **Funnels** where enabled.

## Choose an acquisition path

- **Discovery** — review the identity, category, eligibility, public visibility, and destination shown in discovery surfaces.
- **Invite** — copy the About-page link, send one direct invitation, or import approved email addresses.
- **Metrics** — compare landing, acquisition, conversion, and attribution signals using the displayed window.
- **Funnels** — build and review focused offer pages; see the dedicated funnel guide before publishing or optimizing.

For referrals, open **Settings → Monetization → Affiliates**. Enable the program only after selecting a commission rate, payout process, and support policy. Members can use generated links; referral statistics show referrals, commissions, and conversion.

## Verify attribution and consent

Test discovery, purchase/request access, single and CSV invitations, funnel conversion, and affiliate attribution with non-admin accounts. Use a unique test campaign and remove it from reports when supported.

Do not import purchased mailing lists, expose a member's referral data, or promise a payout policy the payment workflow cannot honor. Metrics can lag or use different attribution windows; compare like-for-like dates and sources before changing a campaign.
