- Think of some amazing things, which you would LOVE your marketplace to be telling their friends about your business.

This is a switch of focus, from the vast majority of advice on getting referrals.
Most referral advice is about how to motivate others to recommend your services or products to their friends and contacts. How to change their behaviour.
