No one's saying Soepkip's not a good guy. No one's not appreciative of the work he does for BC. It's simply a suggestion that while not necessary, it is beneficial to dress in line with the image we want to convey. That doesn't necessarily mean a suit, but it does mean classy. And all those people in your images may not wear suits, but they are all very aware of the image and brand they present and dress accordingly.

So if true, why has Soepkip been flown to the Miami to meet them ?

Yep, because Trinidad James is someone that big investors want to put money into long term.

hi there, the PR firm guy is "dognip" or "morituri13" (our community member) - according to maarx.  So no worries, keep cool.

He is community manager.
Current community he represent well.

If we manages someday get eg. Buisness Manager then he should definietly wear suit...
Anyway get on ground guys we allmost all such Soepkip's in our real lifes...
Soepkip is just simple honest man in that how he looks and who he is. -i can trust him.
He promises hire PR agency and he delivered it traveling 20 000+ km to accomplish that...
Find me another person in crypto who is such plain simple and honest like he...
Let BC rise another 100x and i think he will wear suit then...

PS:Now biggest BC problems are Soepkip pants - fuck me

Below wealth people who don't care about suits :-P :








They need stuff like that

+1 to those who say the foundation members should make the effort to represent BlackCoin well.

We are paying 30,000 for PR advice. PR is all about branding, having a good image. If we are trying to represent BlackCoin as a serious investment opportunity, then that is undone every time BlackCoin looks like amateur hour. There's no point investing that money in PR, and then as soon as investors do due diligence they find that the main method of communication is this troll-infested thread, or they find that the community manager goes to business meetings dressed for the beach. There's no point putting all the effort in behind the scenes, then not taking it seriously when presenting the public face of BlackCoin. I'd hate to think that the opportunity that BlackCoin has is to be wasted over stupid things.

Every time a BlackCoin foundation member makes a statement or attends a meeting is a chance to sway a potential investor into purchasing BlackCoin. And that goes two ways, both potentially negative and positive. MaxBorges are owners of BlackCoins, perhaps they are now more likely to cash out immediately. All the employees of MaxBorges have probably now heard about BlackCoin, are they all going to be asking how to invest in BlackCoin now that they see how seriously the community manager takes business meetings? For a burgeoning cryptocurrency image matters more than in most industries. People have to trust BlackCoin and the community behind it (and the technology, of course) if they are going to consider it a real form of money.

Much respect to what Soepkip has done and is doing, but the world works how it works and BlackCoin won't be taken seriously if that is part of the public image to it.

Thanks for alerting me to this.  Here is the new version straightened up and switched around.

Store of Value.
Classy.

We should do a Brand Bible..

I hope Soepkip when he reads this realizes we're not attacking him, but trying to help with the image the coin presents. We're the gentleman's coin, the coin of luxury, the coin that conveys the same image that the black American Express card does. Which is why it's important that we keep cultivating that image.

There has to be someone in the BC community with a connection to some kind of clothing store/company that we may be able to begin contacting, and look at for a promotions?

+1 Basically this, saved me some typing time. As a Blackcoin Foundation Board member, there has to be some type of professionalism out in the public when dealing with Blackcoin related meetings/events.

Exactly right. This just needs to be kept as a thought for future meetings/pictures.

It may not matter to this company, but what happens if we branch to another and it actually is an issue. Let alone taking fun pictures which are normally awesome, but push away someone who's legitimately interested in investing and seeing a dude who couldn't be bothered to put on pants.

As much as I respect Soepkip and crew, I do think that there should be a Blackcoin dresscode when staff or whoever representing Blackcoin appears in public. So, no offence but it's my opinion 

+1 I agree with your sentiments here. It's not a big deal, but it still matters. That is why someone like Michael Jordan (the NBA player) made a point of always being well dressed in public, not because he didn't have the financial freedom to dress however he wanted to, but because he realized that in today's world, image matters. He knew his brand was important and cultivated it...leading to him making a lot more money in endorsements than he did as a basketball player.

I'm sorry, I don't really agree with this.

While BlackCoin is not a regular start-up, it also is not exactly a well-established worldwide brand yet. And precisely for that reason, I don't think we can afford to say "fuck everyone and what they may think about us" at this point. Representation is an important part of brand management. And while I do not question Soepkip's ability to represent in general, I do think showing up at the first meeting with a firm you have just signed a deal with, looking like you just came by from the beach, is not exactly a good visual representation example.

With that said, this should not be turned into a bigger issue than it is. Only food for thought and something to keep in mind for the future, perhaps. People will take us as serious as we (appear to) take ourselves. And, we never get a second chance to make a first impression.

Putting all that aside, I would be very interested on hearing about the details of the meeting. Soepkip or someone else, can you fill us in at your earliest convenience, please? I know a big update is on its way, but just dropping a quick line with a brief summary would suffice for now!

I didn't create it, but I'll let ecochav know that it might be reversed. Or he might see it here. Thanks for pointing it out.

Well Soepkips' made it I suppose - he's got people on the internet talking about what he wears.
