Bitcoin needs some positive attention in the media, that's the best kind of advertising you could have.
If the price doubles again, than we would see a lot more adoption.

Price up, media exposure up, adoption up, more price up. I just want the price to increase gradually. No more than 5% a month.

There is no such thing as small advertisement.
We should keep talking about it over internet, real life, etc.
We may also need some strong firms to use bitcoin in couple of their services (like spotify etc.)

i feel like bitcoin is already getting fairly popular even without advertising because it is just so great. "great things don't need advertising"

It is popular yes & no.
Many people till now don't know what is bitcoin and how it works and the majority won't get a chance to know it without our intervention.
I hope that every bitcointalk.org member put the bitcoin video in his YouTube or share his story about btc.
If anyone is a member of another forum he could definitely ask there if they ever heard about bitcoin... etc

Like that we will have more and more users and btc will be widely accepted

Lots of great things need advertising and benefit tremendously from it. Here's a partial list of well-known products/services which spend millons on advertising. They wouldn't do it if it wasn't necessary, or at least didn't help:

MasterCard
Bank of America (or any national bank)
iPhone
Mac
Any airline
Any vehicle
4G networks

Yes, there are some products that take off with little to no advertising. Those are statistical outliers and are not normal (congrats to them, though).

The point is that everyone knows what a car is, where to go to get airline tickets, or where to go to get a financial product/service. And even then millions are spent to promote what everyone already knows about.

How much more does a superior product/service that hardly anyone knows about (Bitcoin) need marketing?

Not really, don't make your judgement depending in the community here in this forum, many people out don't know anything about this forum , and even about Bitcoin currency. Bitcoin still need advertising in my opinion

That's not true.

If I handmade a vase out of pure gold and roses and leave it to sit in my basement, it is worthless because I didn't post it.

Posting it is advertisement.

If the price rises a lot, it will cause media mania, more people will know bitcoin.

But for the price rises a lot, first people will need to put lot of money into BTC and more people will have to know about BTC.

It is circular

Or do something spectacular or crazy which media can't ignore it, such as buy a popular island with bitcoin, donate a lot with bitcoin or anything else which involved bitcoin which media can't ignore it
Also, major/big companies accept bitcoin also is a good way of advertising bitcoin too

i want a bumpersticker for my compagny van

i was thinking when i redo the letterwork on my van to incorporate the mentioning of accepting btc as payment aswell
it's on my designtable but it's comming

You might want a cute handmade sweater with the bitcoin symbol on it this winter season!

that actually sounds awsome! maybe something my mom could do ^^

How old is she? I wouldn't suggest that, only because if it became a booming business (which it will), she would retire from working on that sooner than I would. I'm only 23. 24 this November.

Got a lot of kick in me.

Fear not! I offer a sweet 50% off to other people wanting to sell my merchandise for their own little businesses and make a killing profit. I might purposely discontinue the merchandise in two years to make the merchandise rare and even more profitable. And because it's handmade, there's no way to 100% duplicate it perfectly. I'm the only one with the technique.

If you're ever interested when I post the pictures, don't be afraid to send an email to do business! I love retailers!

Wherever we buy stuff if there would be something like a bitcoin logo.
Or a statement that we accept bitcoin that would be better to advertise the bitcoin.
When people see this they would be curios and probably join to the bitcoin world.

After all, if you don't spread the knowledge of an existence, the existence is in turn unknown, labeling it useless.

What about spreading the word to the younger generation? Children are known to imitate knowledge, and spread it continuously. I am a firm believer in broadcasting and wide advertising. Right now, I'm trying to create handmade merchandise like hand knitted sweaters with the bitcoin symbol embroidered onto them, hand sculpted bitcoin symbol necklaces, earrings, bracelets, and even handmade dolls of a mascot I drew. I'm hoping these fun items will help spread awareness for the digital currency until it's the number one used currency. What do you think?

I actually have a bunch of handmade bitcoin necklaces on the market now if you'd like to see.

I think it's good you are spreading awareness. Most people that have negative opinions of bitcoin just don't know anything about it. When smart people learn about it, they become interested.

You can get them from me, but I'm still making them. ^____^

I agree that we need to advertise bitcoin unless it is known to each and every human being on this planet.Recently I created a group about bitcoin on Facebook and all my friends started asking me what bitcoin is?many even joined the group and showing interest in bitcoin.Its all about spreading a word you have a best innovation of the century now let everyone know about it

I don't quite agree with you there. Awareness about bitcoin should be passed on, but not as a ad propaganda. You need to give people the service they want to utilize,
rather than just talk about something they can't find use of. Remember when silk road started ? Just give people something they can use , and interest will follow.
[I'm not saying we need black markets to promote bitcoin, i'm just using it as an example]
