Thanks for that, I've said it for years that techies don't know shit about marketing. Of course they don't why should they? But yet we still rely on them to push this platform out to the masses. It hasn't happened, it will never happen until we have some professional marketing and promotion and pay for it using the proposal system we have already in place.
Sadly, it ain't going to happen and we will still be having this discussion next year....and the next year....
I think it will, needs someone who is willing to do it.
I hear what you say but we have stacks of liquid in the DAO fund, hire someone...someone from off-chain if necessary. Surely there are some professional marketing, advertising and SEO pro's here somewhere!
For all Dan's bluster, the twitter campaign has never worked.
My first stop would be to get Dappler or Ecency mobile App and use Google and Facebook advertising to promote it and allow it come with a free built in account so users don't need to fanny about. Once we have them and they see they can genuinely get rewards which increase with their stake, they will hopefully start buying but at least get them on board first!
So many things could be done but as you say, no one has the bottle to take it on! It needs a budget to pay someone AND a big budget for the promotion!!
People like you who have genuinely bought in as opposed to eked out a stake in the very early days must be furious.
The other problem is, those huge stake holders are doing very well from curation etc anyway so they have no motivation to roll things out to the masses.
We have the nice toys, we need the people!!!
Agreed, I hope we figure it out and get there sooner than later.
