How do I create viral discount campaigns?

As an e-commerce business owner, I'm struggling to create discount campaigns that not only drive sales but also generate significant buzz and organic social sharing. I've tried traditional discounts, but they often feel generic and fail to create real excitement. I want to understand the strategic approach to designing promotions that customers will actively want to share with their networks, effectively turning my customers into marketing ambassadors while boosting overall brand visibility and sales.
