Then I thought, "hell, why don't I try to actually turn this into something?"
Three-ish weeks later, HelloList.com was born.
Take a peek! Going to try to make this something that nearly anyone can use to build a waiting list, so would love to hear any feedback on how to make it more useful.
Good concept though.
HelloList can definitely do that (need to make that more obvious), mainly because it's just a simple platform. People sign up and promote it and such, and on the backend you get an ordered list of all the entries including info like who referred them, number of referrals, when they signed up, ordered by their rank (can dl it as a CSV too). Whether you let just the top 100 in your beta for free, give everyone who referred >3 people something, give the top 500 people a "badge", or etc., is entirely up to those building the list.
One thought about pricing: limits are very bad. Let's say I pay you for the plus plan. Once I get over 1000 what happens? Do I loose mails? You don't want that to happen to your customers: provide recovery options of some kind, or change revenue model.

I like the idea, keep pushing...
