got sent a PM about this for no reason. super spammy
AVOID
This dev or a member of the team pmed me also to join on their promotion.
wrong move this project was to eager to get money. I thought he almost pmed all active users.
I agree that our bounty marketing strategy can be way out there and hear me out, let me own this,
We are not your regular crypto project with a budget for marketing, just a startup looking to create something out of little with crowd support, so we need to reach out to the crowd. We have no budget to place banners on every forum and pay for ads at the start of every youtube video you watch. Our budget is aligned with what is required to build brand and technology. Don't believe me? We acquire trending.me for a huge sum, we pay for an incubator while we could have out of my own 2 bedroom apartment. We hired one full time engineer to work on this paying him his full corporate salary. These are essential.
Now to address the PMs, I do not see anything wrong with it, of course this is debatable. Communication is the basis on how relationships and creating new contacts are build, someone has to send the first message.
Why would you not want to receive A(One) Message, We did not SPAM you with multiple messages, that is the actual definition of SPAMAnd to say we sent a PM to every member on this forum is not right, an exaggeration, almost an allegation and the fact that you posted this in our ANN thread when in fact the message we sent to you was inviting you for bounty showcases that your intent posting here was malicious, to ruin us, to teach us a lesson while all you needed to do was ignore the message.
We cherripicked who we wanted to send to, I guess you are not happy that you were chosen, very well you can ignore the message, you will not receive a message again.
Having no budget to promote in traditional ways and trying different ways to reach an audience does not mean we will not be a great project or cannot be a great project. You shout out the words AVOID because we infuriated you with a single PM, I urge you to look beyond this.
Why would you not want to be communicated with? This blows my mind, why would you focus on something like "I just got sent a PM, how dare they" when in fact you should look at context and maybe, just maybe think twice?
