Thanks.

I have been mostly focused on bitcoin enthusiast on Facebook. Now, only the future will tell us if this is the place where we are going to get traction.

There are a few things that I believe we need:

1- An inspirational video that explains how DPOS can change the world and all of the possible application of it.

Really, just a 5 minute video that we can all share with our friends for a show and tell. I do this all the time with the maidsafe explainer video (see maidsafe.net homepage)

2- A mobile wallet

We are working at creating a taskforce by putting together devs, designers, marketers and public relation for organizing our efforts. From pre-launch to the moon.

on nullstreet methodx mentioned he want to buy banner adds on CMC. i would use this money to make a video contest and increase the pricemoney every week, from other delegates or freely given contributors. We would get a lot of attention and will get many videos we can choose some.

Google ads may scale better.  We should have an app for Facebook...

See if you can get bitmarket ( author of Bitshares 101) to let you turn his book into a video.

Yes, his book is that good.  Script is for video is already written, condense and record in front of video. Voila instant inspirational video

Should also consider reading and promoting bitshares 101 your FB page  It is an excellent piece of copy that got me re-excited( is that a word?) about Bitshares. The reviews on Amazon Kindle speak volumes

Great work. It seems we are very much still in the "discovery" phase of marketing. After learning some more about marketing from you and the others guys at nullstreet as well as investigating on my own I realize how bad we have been at marketing previously, and that we are essentially starting blank slate now in 2015. The whole community has been malnutritioned on bad marketing and we need to start understanding the new way to do things, among other things by giving marketing a much more prominent role in directing development and community efforts.

Well done for your first week of work!

From your experiment, Facebook may not be a suitable channel (per $ spent).  I think targeting cryptocurrency enthusiasts may give you better result.

I have tried to burn my report on the blockchain but it doesn't seem to show up on the front page.

Well anyway, I'll keep doing it until it shows up on my delegate wall:
