I think it's high time projects know that they cannot rely solely on bounty and airdrop as a means of promotion. A lot of projects launch and they rely on their bounty campaigns and airdrop to help bring in investors and therefore fail to reach their softcap.

I never said bounties are not effective but it should only be used to create and reward their community not to bring in investors. If a project wants to promote it crowdsale then the team should deploy real promotional means like paying top influencers, attending conferences, advertisements on top sites like coinmarketcap, etc. Because no matter how good the project is, if it can't market properly then it won't reach its goals and if a project is mediocre but have a top notch marketing program, it will succeed beyond expectations.

according to my observation, from the beginning until now I joined the cryptocurency and also active as a bounty hunter, I see every project launched has a CEO Team and has several Advisors to help develop projects and Advisors who will bring investors to invest in projects that they support from the collaboration between the CEO and Advisor teams ... and in my opinion the failure of a project is not based on the greatness and expertise of the promotion ... but many investors are looking at the product and business being worked on and which will be done from now until later in future..

the fact is that very few projects can pay to some kind of influential people for advertising or even do some kind of strong marketing at the early stage

A lot of serious projects do not depend only on bounties and Airdrops for promotion but it is one of the good ways to get the community acquainted first, the real huge investors may not be found on those social media, the project developers go out to meet them through symposiums and technical sessions, but the quickest way to grow a large community is through bounties and Airdrop because the crypto market is largely community based and they determine the value and not what it is tagged by the developer.

Yes, all these promotions help investors get more information about the project. Because good hunters choose quality projects and publish good work on the project. They can analyze all the information. And if the project does not say it means he is dead.

Bounties were the one that has been getting followed by every projects for their promotional purpose. There were more forms of campaigns being run by the teams, but the success always depends on the project value in terms of product backing, real time usage and various other factors. As Op mentioned advertisements through coinmarketcap and other websites will be effective and these days there were more projects doing the same.

Airdrop and Bounty is still an effective way to promote, this range is also not inferior to advertising on Google or other and also with this cost is also very low even this is a strategy that is very profitable for the project.

I have not seen a project that relied only on bounty and airdrops to market. Can you name one? And do you have proof?

What made you think they do not know all these things? I understand that hunters like you have all these ideas in your head and love to talk but do not underestimate the capacity of the team. They have their own marketing team for a reason.

For that problem, most projects are not brave enough to spend their money to use promoters such as influencers or service providers because I myself also see some platforms that advertise their project as Google ads, it still fails, I don't want to call it, but what I saw this year there are some and funny there are projects that don't need to do such things for promotion, and not holding airdrop / bounty can still be successful

I do not agree with you and think you are missing the point bounty is a very good means of promoting any project we have signature bounty that target people in the crypto world and there is blog, social media even YouTube I think it's very OK and top cryptocurrency did it an reaped the reward

Although that Op has an angle but I also think that project owners are limited in areas that they can do real advertisements. For example, we keep hearing of news about social media like Facebook, google and others forbidding things relating to cryptocurrency (whether it has changed, false or not but we read them on this forum from time to time).

I think the advertising space is the real issue and that's why adverts can trive more in crypto related platforms until crypto is better recognized.

The greatest thing for the project is concept and implementation. They should make their probable investors sure about the team's dedicated involvement in the project and the feasibility of the project, it's profitability and how the tokens holder would be rewarded for their contribution.
Presentation and advertisement would always be second thing. But while advertising, they should make it more community based than spending large on banners and ads. As, community would be the best way to spread good things and reach to the desired investors.

It is pretty ridiculous that some projects rely soley on bounty campaigns as their ways to promoting to investors.

It is time projects start offering their investors more for their money by changing their promotion strategy.

The IEO strategy seems to be the best at the moment as long as a reputable exchange can be secured

Bounties are used because it's free advertisement - they create money (tokens) out of thin air, then use them to hire promoters, while those things that you've mentioned - influencers, conferences, ads on top sites, etc. - they all require real monetary investment, which projects either can't afford or don't want to, usually because they are just scams. But even having expert marketing team is not a guarantee that a project is not a scam.

Are you measuring success in investment returns? Because that is unreliable, even the scammiest and shittiest coins can get pumped, but in the long run people will lose all their money if they hold them.
