Momentum.

Specifically:

Well designed and communicated homepage.

Modern products and companies using the language. Their websites should look great too.

Boilerplate-free graphical or web app oriented examples.

If a clean, well designed language with good documentation and bite-sized clear intro videos could do this today, it can build momentum.

Ps: I'm a designer who would love to get into programming with Racket.
