Why did the success of the pilgrims influence others to settle in the americas?

When other pilgrims saw that the pilgrims who were already settled in America were successful, they decided that they would try their luck as well. The reason why they did so was also the desire for obtaining richhes that were perhaps awaiting them in the new world. They also knew that in the New World, there would be more pportunities as everything would yet have to be built up.
