Graffenwalder, I always appreciate an honest opinion.
My radio ad was my first ever radio ad. Aruther Falls (legendface666) who runs the show said it was a great ad and he was excited to have such high quality material on the show. It's possible he says that to everyone, but that's the only other feedback I've received on it. I don't see what's wrong with it, though next time I won't spell out my delegate name at the end. Could you explain what was wrong with it or offer constructive feedback?
That unpublished article is a bit rough now I look at it again. I was attempting to bridge a very niche topic into a more mainstream lens which was a bit too much of a stretch. With a little bit of editing to re-target it to the cryptosphere it can easily be upgraded and used somewhere.
No comments on the other one on r/cryptocurrency? My copy actually got used in a relatively successful marketing push and I've had lots of positive feedback on it. It can't be bad. I also coined the slogan that will be used in the social media 'thunderclap' campaign. "Crowdhiring, it's a thing".
With the radio ad, not even the official marketing team took the opportunity for a free slot on a popular bitcoin podcast. I am the only one who took action. Do you want to get things done?
Re: delulo on the video I slapped together, that was voluntary and nothing to do with my delegate campaign. I was frustrated by the endless talk about videos and nothing getting done. So I had a go myself. At the very least it helped inspire the community marketing efforts by setting an example of taking action.
And again there was endless talk about Argentina but no budget for it. I am the only one who took the plunge to make sure it goes ahead.
Like I have said before, delegates delegate. I won't be creating the bitUSD portal on my own, but I will be making sure it gets done. BM said in that podcast he wants delegates with a strong vision. I have that. It doesn't mean doing it all myself and paying myself a salary. What needs to be done in Argentina requires a wide assortment of skills, it's a team effort and I am more than capable of co-ordinating it and funding the right initiatives with plenty of community consultation.
Matt,
Like you said these are just my opinions and they are like taste. Not everybody likes the same flavor.
Radio ad: I would suggest a voice over, I used
http://www.goodcheapvoiceover.com in the past. And they do exactly what it says on the tin.
I must have looked over that reddit link. To be honest I found that to be a good post.
Crowd hiring, it's a thing? Sorry but this just doesn't do it for me.(again taste)
Getting things done:
As for the official marketing team. I hope they are drawing up a battle plan in the war room. And are just waiting for the perfect moment to strike. And that might be the reason for not taking the slot. Again I hope this is the case, like most of us here we won't know, until they launch it.
As for this Argentine campaign I'm still not convinced, that you are the best man for this job.
Also at current marketcap you will be taking a big part of the budget. (200 bitusd)
You might be the only one stepping up to the plate, but that doesn't mean you'll bring value to the team.
I'd rather see someone putting up a helper delegate for someone, who has proven skills.
Let me just finish by saying, that I'm not neccesarly for or against the official marketing team, and/or an Argentinian campaign.
