I propose that we use some of the unclaimed coins for a big give-away action. Hand out big fistfuls of NXT to the people who have been supporting NXT over the last couple of months (maybe by weighting this thread contribution, to include me, of course) and then carry on with random give-aways to new Nxt'ers.

And one big give-away to a public figure/charity. All give aways will bring people in, rewarding the established community will give us a warm fuzzy feeling, and a big public figure/charity give away will get lots of coverage in mainstream news media without Nxt having to pay for advertising.

Let me again bring up the idea of using global computing, like Ripple does.

How about something like this:
2. Giveaway 500 NXT to 500 people on forums- 250k
There will never be a giveaway for free. Only for people who will share our infographics/videos. We still do not have all information needed to create those infographics, but I am gathering them in the NxtMyths articles.

I personally don't see where marketing is important now when much-needed and absolutely essential is a great multi platform client. This should be the first priority and tackled by joined forces ASAP.

And if some dudes tackle the marketing stuff, not one little piece of energy will get snatched away from developing some nice clients. So whats the point... it's not like we are only 3 guys.

Parallel processing.

Marketing must plan and get ready while devs develop.

If anyone needed Indonesian translator for some marketing articles or anything
I'm more than willing to work my fingers off!
Indonesia is like biggest untapped resources in the world of cryptocurrency.
Indonesia + Korea.
Welcome to the public list of translators:

You can also look at marketing thread: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4465984
- Right now you can start with: Translating Nxt Wiki  (the wiki boss is Joefox) + you can fill Volunteer Questionaire (it is similar to the nxteam gdoc, but Nxt is decentralized, so we do same things in more places)

I am doing wiki italian translation

OK, you could also contact permafrost, he already translated some italian texts:

A marketing strategy, development and execution can sometimes cost more time than develop a great multi platform client. Please do not underestimate this.

I do not underestimate this at all. One can go kickstart marketing strategy once there is the essential multi platform client.

We are working on multiple fronts at the same time, it is not linear mathematics anymore.

So nexern's client (multi-platform) is the one that is being waited for, right? I can see only one person working on this particular client. It should be a no-brainer that the client is far more important than marketing at the current stage.

Nexern likes to work alone for now or you could contact him offering helps. Read here for more information https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/nxt-full-feature-clients-progress-tracking-thread-412138. We could have a alpha/ beta in a week or so.

To make things clear, I am not opposed to marketing at all. I am merely stressing the need of a solid client [which at the end of the day has strong marketing effects in itself]. Thank you for the link.

Marketing needs to be planned and thus budgeted.
We already know that the client is coming soon. So planning and budgetting to be able to start the campaign as soon as the client is there is logical.

The idea that marketing is effortless is an example of good marketing in itself Smiley

So we all just sit back and wait till it comes out? That is just waste of our time. We can work on marketing right now at the same time.

OK, time to organise my semi-random thoughts and inflict them on the Nxt community.


First off:   +100 to Comes-on-Beyonce for financing salsacz in his marketing efforts out of his own pocket. Nice move.


On the marketing vs devs front: stop bitching each other up.
Devs need marketing, marketeers need product. Nxt needs both sides of the coin to be a success.

Nxt has come a long way on the strength of grass-roots marketing and community activism. This is (as I've said 106 times) Nxts greatest strength; the community support. We need to continue this effort, and help finance the guys who are making this happen.

I need to throw down a definition here: I'm going to define marketing as pretty much any action that helps to bring Nxt into the public eye, while I see advertising as being the use of (semi-) traditional media (TV, radio, print, web) to throw a message in the face of a mass audience of Joe Public (ie non-techie people).

I'm totally in favour of marketing right now to the more tech-savvy community (crypto-freaks, nerds/web users in general) but I feel that mass market advertising will be a complete waste of time and money and maybe even counter-productive.
If we get Joe Public to sign up to NXT and his/her first experience is a tricky set-up process (or losing funds) they will get the hell out of Nxt very quickly and warn other people to avoid us.

tl:dr: Marketing good, mass market advertising bad. (right now)
Marketing dudes should carry on with the current grass-roots activism, devs should make sure that we have a better and improved Nxt experience, for example one-click clients + account locking/security.


On the marketing front: I've just checked out FrictionlessCoins NEX bollocks, and the one overwhelming impression I get is that people will go mad for it if they can maybe get something for free.

I propose that we use some of the unclaimed coins for a big give-away action. Hand out big fistfuls of NXT to the people who have been supporting NXT over the last couple of months (maybe by weighting this thread contribution, to include me, of course) and then carry on with random give-aways to new Nxt'ers.

And one big give-away to a public figure/charity. All give aways will bring people in, rewarding the established community will give us a warm fuzzy feeling, and a big public figure/charity give away will get lots of coverage in mainstream news media without Nxt having to pay for advertising.

This brings me to voting: we need to get the voting system sorted out.
Which brings me to the complete f**king nightmare that this thread is becoming. We need to hive off debate threads to one of the other 2 forums, so that we can concentrate on one topic at hand, not all the topics all of the time.

Having said that, I'm off to the Nextcoin.org forum:

https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,2277.0.html

to see what we can do about the Amsterdam BTC conferences.
