True. SO how can you create the idea of comparing Gold/Silver with CGB? By looking how these metals are positioned in the current market. A simple search on google for "invest gold" comes up with a site like
http://www.golddirect.com/en/ . Take a minute to look at this site and describe the feeling that you get. For me its class, wealth, proper and classic. So the first start should be to position this coin with these standards. After that is realized the next step comes in and this is PR aka Press Releases targeted to potential buyer groups and have every question covered as honest as can be. This involves to step away from the current alt coin flow that is going on atm. You can do this with public ledgers, testemonies, coin distribution overviews etc etc. Most important thing in this proces is to not sell CGB but sell a lifestyle that is supported with CGB.
Just something i came up with in a minute of my thinking.... Take a few days to make a proper plan and take the time to make it happen. I offered myself before here and i still have time if a good leader comes in to make this happen and streamlines the proces.
I agree with you on the point that it must maintain a professional image. However, I want to use caution when invoking class or wealth. Although CGB is a commodity which has amazing properties and value, it is not only for the rich and we don't want to give the impression that it will make you rich. After all, the supply and value of gold itself has actually been quite steady throughout the centuries and its the fiat and markets which warp and twist around this pillar of finance. While there is obviously a LOT of opportunity to gain when discovering and investing in such a commodity, we do not want to place CGB into the minds of the get rich quick crowd. In this way CGB may become a pillar of stability on its own.
I agree that a press release type of document is fundamental to broad success within the investing community. They want to know concisely what opportunity is being presented here. I believe the first step though would be an overall marketing strategy. I have begun work on some information and "talking points" that the community can use as ammunition for online debates and discussions. I think this, combined with a collection of online and offline targets of community excitement and their respective modus operandi will give excited investors the tools that they need to take part in the community effort.
You are absolutely on key here with not selling the idea of CGB but selling the benefits. Again I don't think we can target a lifestyle because we will associate ourselves with it. Gold is neutral, it doesn't care if you are rich or poor it will protect you. CGB is neutral, it doesn't care if you are rich or poor it will protect you. All we need to do is look at how gold and especially silver have been used by cultures and help people to see that CGB is the same.
Regarding public ledgers, testemonies, coin distribution overviews, etc, is anyone able to produce this data? I saw some charts a while ago listing what percent of people hold what percentage of the coinbase. I don't think this is a critical point but if we can work it in our favour it would go a looooong way to quell arguments about the relatively quick mining phase of CGB. Excellent input x0rcist.
