Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium to increase product usage. In some examples, a request to assign a task to a selected user is received. The selected user as a non-user of the task service. In response, task information and an identification of the task service is appended to an electronic document. Once the selected user has subscribed to the task service, the selected user is assigned to the task within the task service.

A method implemented by instructions executed using at least one processor of at least one computing device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a task service, a user request to assign a task to a selected user;
- identifying, by the task service, the selected user as a non-user of the task service;
- in response to the selected user being identified as a non-user of the task service, appending an electronic document to include promotion data that encourages the selected user to subscribe to the task service, the promotion data comprising:
- an identification of the task service, and task information that describes the task;
- and
- identifying, by the task service, that the selected user has subscribed to the task service;
- and
- assigning, by the task service, the selected user to the task within the task service in response to the selected user being subscribed to the task service.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions executed by at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause at least one computing device to at least:
- receive, by a task service, a user request to assign a task to a selected user;
- identify, by the task service, the selected user as a non-user of the task service;
- in response to the selected user being identified as a non-user of the task service, append an electronic document to include promotion data that encourages the selected user to subscribe to the task service, the promotion data comprising:

A system, comprising:
- at least one computing device comprising at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory comprising executable instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one computing device to at least:
- receive, by a task service, a user request to assign a task to a selected user;
- identify, by the task service, the selected user as a non-user of the task service;
- in response to the selected user being identified as a non-user of the task service, append an electronic document to include promotion data that encourages the selected user to subscribe to the task service, the promotion data comprising:
- an identification of the task service, and task information that describes the task;
- and
- identify, by the task service, that the selected user has subscribed to the task service;
- and
- assign, by the task service, the selected user to the task within the task service in response to the selected user being subscribed to the task service.
