Title: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on November 05, 2014, 01:23:05 pm
I walk around and introduce myself as an entertainer and financial adviser since a year. The people can choose between jokes, poems, etc. and then I also tell them about bitshares. I am somehow a panhandler/comedian/cryptoadviser but I only make 20-30 Euro per day. Not enough. 50 would be enough. I tell the people that I am freemarket and donation based and independent.

Because I stay outside on the weekends (prices of hostels too high), I meet many poor people. I would like to work with delegates to give them money/shoes/night in the hostel or a shower. To have a house to fix up homeless people is an idea I have since a while. From haircut, to new outfit, to psychological help, and so on. Out comes a new person.. :)

I usually give my username and btsx account and in case the people make some good investments, they can send me a thank you.

Besides showing them the bitshares.org website on their phones I have no offline material to show them. I need some tips from you.

Until now, I had maybe 3-5 people who paid around 5 Euro. Many told me to contact me, and I don*t give up hope, that at least one will finally send me private forum message.

I am really proud of how many people I told about how to buy btsx.

That's my situation. I need help in entrepreneurship, thank you so much

I strongly support your out reach, but I do not support using shareholder funds for it.   

I'll send you 25 bit usd personally.

Perfect opportunity for the charity delegates to pay out some bitUSD ..

Subscribing to the thread .. will come back to you later today

What is the price to stay in a hostel over a weekend? Do you have a way of getting from bitUSD to fiat? You can't wear any of your hats if you have pneumonia.

Wait with sending anything please. With "I need a tip" I meant some ideas on how to show the people what BitShares is all about on the street. I am not connected to the network also. I will print out some info material soon. Then I will use some of my Euros I make every day and make a picture or a story about how I used them to help someone.

Thanks for your help, I am fine. Talk to you soon.

Riverhead, on the weekend it's around 25-30 for a dormitory. Maybe I will leave Amsterdam, then everything will be cheaper.

Which material should I have, to print out to show to people? If you could name a few infos, but chill, I think I know what to do. No, I need a little assitance to be honest.

I need a way to help someone and to proof it to the delegates, that I am not a scammer. Let's say I pay someone some shoes, how should I document that?

Edit: Pneumonia, bedbugs.. Don*t worry I eat good food every day.

I have no connection with bank account to BTC. The only way I know of getting money out is selling BTC on Localbitcoins. Because I travel with everything I am constantly worried of losing my computer or that someone hacks me. It takes so long to build and sync, I will do this soon and then tell you if it is safe to send to my btsx account, thanks!

So you are homeless in Amsterdam?  What is your citizenship?  Fascinating.

Do you have a video camera?  Too bad you couldn't make some videos of your life and your journey to spread the BTS.

I give you an Idea... (seriously)
Since we want to promote bts for the freedom we can get using it. Let's show them real life examples!
Tell your story on a post, and consider to get a delegate !!! Ask our community how much payrate they would give you to begin promote bitshares from the position you are right now...
(Don't worry about the server cost's and the technical part to maintain a delegate position. I offer you to host your delegate on my server here in Greece and to manage it like I do for my personal delegate...)
Get a street marketer. Help maybe other homeless people out introducing them bitshares and tipping them with part of your delegate income.Get creative, think what you can do. Make videos explaining how you manage to move on promoting bitshares creatively.
I think it would be very interesting to watch your videos. It would be a killer story if you could get a bitshares delegate and keep your position because you are doing well promoting it in your way.  Ho knows... maybe one of your videos will get viral... maybe more people think your story and your relationship with bitshares is interesting... get the attention and anything else will come...  Just trying to inspire you , I am sure you have better ideas than that... ;)

You have a fascinating life.  A lot of people would look down on you, but I've always had a place in my heart for those go it their own way, regardless of what led them there.

If you could capture some of this with a video camera.  A cheap phone? Then upload that to Youtube.  I don't have much money right now to be donating, but I would definitely be more inspired if we could somehow see you in action. 

I'm not sure if this is feasible or you would be comfortable doing it, but please keep us in the loop.

edit - I also think that posting videos would help evangelize even further and hopefully more of our community could give you some funds.  Although I am hesistant to put expectations forward, as people are selfish in general and those expecting to be tipped any sort of substantial amount are so often let down.  (and by substantial, I mean $20-$50 a few times a month ...)

Videos would have demonstratable value and have the chance of going viral.  I am not sure about organizing homeless people, but I think videos might be a step into being paid more than a tiny few tips.  That would be some unique content to say the least.

Anyway, I hope you have a great day and don't let stuff get you down too much.

Post by: fuzzy on November 08, 2014, 05:00:19 pm
This is where something like a "BlockUniversity" would be interesting.  We could use a Delegate to help pay off a house and renovate it.  Turn it into a Soup-Kitchen and give it wifi.  A partnership with a company selling used laptops/cell phones could get them access and we give everyone the opportunity to help sustain the ecosystem by learning about blocktech like bitShares and earn a living from it. 

If we support MANY altchains it could be very plausible that at least a few out of every hundred or so people fed and sheltered would be capable and interested in furthering progress, running delegates in altchains and earning funds for it.  A small portion of those funds could then be used to continue expansion from one house to many.  Eventually an entire block (or two...three?). 

Regardless.  I will gladly give you a tip as well.  Thank you for all you do.  Please contact me via PM and maybe we can work something out to continue helping you for what you do. 

Oh...on final thing.  Please accept any help our community is willing/able to give!


Edit:  Many of these things would take a good bit of time to mature, but this is intended to be a thought experiment that brings to light the possibilities.  My belief is that people who are homeless oftentimes are suffering from problems far out of the reach of "monetary" incentives.  But giving MEANING to people's lives does a world of good.

Let*s do it!
Let*s combine all ideas. Liondani, that*s a great offer, thx! Gamey i am german. Thanks for your warm words, which make life so much better.

So I have to make a post and tell the story, that*s the trick. I will try this now.


Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far

I made this here for printing out and give to people or a blog. No photo or camera at the moment. If you would like to read it and make changes so it sounds better, I would be very happy.

How to buy BitShares? 7-steps.

1. Register on https://localbitcoins.com/register/* and buy Bitcoins (BTC).
Outdated information. Localbitcoins.com is not available in Germany at the moment.
 
2. Register on https://bter.com/login www.btc38.com and send the BTC from localbitcoins.com Bitstamp to your account at bter.com www.btc38com.

3. Buy bitshares (BTS) with your BTC on www.bter.com. www.kraken.com.
4. Download the bitshares program from www.bitshares.org.
5. Register on the forum www.bitsharestalk.org and ask for a small amount of BTS so
you can register an account in your bitshares program. There is a thread especially for that.

6. Register an account in your bitshares program on your computer and send the BTS from www.bter.com www.btc38.com to this account.
7. Save the wallet of your account and store it safely in different locations (for example USB, CD,..).


BitShares offers new technology like BitUSD. It can be used by merchants to avoid the price volatility of Bitcoin. It is pegged
to the value of the US Dollar. This makes it possible to sell a product for, for example, 9.90 BitUSD.

The transaction time is around 5 seconds. You can send from an user-name, for example eddy123, to another user-name.
This happens anonymously but the feature can be turned off if you want to. This has changed. There is no anonymity yet. It is as anonymous as bitcoin.

The developers of BitShares are known to the public and the amount of money in the market (Market Cap) is $ 37 million.
One BTS is now at around $ 0.01.
   

My user-name on www.bitsharestalk.org is 38PTSWarrior. Check out
www.bitshares.org, where you can find all the information you need to make yourself a picture of what this
is all about. If you like my work you can vote for my delegate once user liondani starts to manage a delegate for me.
The plan for now is to help people in the street with things they need. Many times I meet people and have no money to buy them something.
I will make use of the delegates income for charity. Come and watch or contribute on www.bitsharestalk.org if you want.

Post by: 38PTSWarrior on December 21, 2014, 04:49:14 pm
Ok, I am walking around and tell the people that I will soon have a delegate and that I don*t want to make money directly from them.
They like the idea and I am excited, really nice.

I would like to rent people a groundfloor apartment, give them a coffee machine and then they can live there and sell coffee. It is easier in some places than in others.

I think it would be good to make delegates or something else for tribes. Just make the account for people from a certain tribe. Then they can get money for education without asking the white government. And also a bitshares account for every new born for free :D

7. Make a backup of the account in your BitShares program and store it safely in different location (for example USB, CD,..).


My name is Martin Raum. My user-name on www.bitsharestalk.org is 38PTSWarrior. I started to tell the people about BitShares (ProtoShares) in 2013 as a financial adviser on the street and am an angel investor. These are people who invest in the idea at an early stage when there is no product yet.

I was looking for a way to invest my bitcoins and found much more than an investment opportunity. You can read everything about it on www.bitshares.org.

BitShares offers new technology like BitUSD. It can be used by merchants to avoid the price volatility of Bitcoin. It is pegged to the value of the US Dollar. This makes it possible to sell a product for (for example) BitUSD 9.90.
 
The transaction time is around 5 seconds. You can send assets like BitUSD, BitGold or BitEUR from any user-name, for example thirtyeightptswarrior (which is mine), to another user-name. This happens anonymously.

The developers of BitShares are known to the public and the amount of money in the market is $ 37 million. One BTS is now at around $ 0.01 and could be $10 in a few years.

If you like this project you can vote for it once delegate liondani starts to manage a delegate for me. Delegates earn a profit by securing the network and can be voted in or out according to their performance. Delegates are for BitShares what miners are for Bitcoin. There are 101 of them and they are always available in case there needs to be a software update.

I will use a part of the delegates income for charity. This project is just starting so nothing is written in concrete yet. Come and see for yourself on www.bitsharestalk.org.

My plan for now is to help people in the street with things they need. Many times I meet people and have no money myself to help them. Later I want to rent a house where people get everything from a shower to new clothes, haircut, therapy, and then come out as fresh people with their dignity restored. At the same time they can learn about BitShares and become a part of the ecosystem. 

This is a how-to for buying shares in a decentralized autonomous company. I hope you understand that I cannot be held responsible for any loss that might occur to you. Good luck! I hope you live long and happy!

I like your flyer.  You might specifically want to give them a few more links to better resources. 

I always read your posts but would like you warn you that this site isn't full of givers.  So don't put too much expectation into receiving a delegate.  I would like to see you tipped something from a delegate, but it would be asking a lot to expect to finance much with proceeds.

How to buy BitShares or 7-steps for securing your financial future with “good new internet money”.
Latest version
1. Register on https://www.kraken.com/ and buy Bitcoins (BTC).

2. Register on https://bter.com/login www.btc38.com and send the BTC from https://www.kraken.com/ to your account at bter.com www.btc38.com.

4. Download the BitShares program from http://bitshares.org/downloads/

5. Register on the forum https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?action=register and ask for a small amount of BTS so you can register an account in your BitShares program. There is a thread especially for that.

Update: There is now a faucet you can use to get a small amount of BTS to register an account without asking in the forum » http://faucet.bitshares.org/

It works like this: You create an account on your local BitShares program on your computer. Then you have to go to My account and then to "key" or "Schlüssel". There you will find the public key (long number which starts with BTS and looks like this "BTSDJvGHdtrgertgTGJUVRHZCDfrerdwegtrecrhr".

This number you can copy/paste in the field on http://faucet.bitshares.org/ website. If you want you can use the new referral link. This makes it visible to the community that you have this information from me and maybe I will get a bit of a payment too. » http://faucet.bitshares.org/?r=thirtyeightptswarrior


6. Register an account in your BitShares program on your computer and send the BTS from your account at bter.com to your new account in your BitShares program.

7. Make a backup of the account in your BitShares program and store it safely in different location (for example USB, CD,..).

How much payrate do you guys think is 38PTSWarrior worth at least for the beginning?  I have a model in my mind where we can increase or decrease the payrate of a delegate without the need to start over with a new name and campaign, and without the need for the devs to hard code anything (!) depended on delegates performance etc..(!)... I will reveal my idea when I have a couple of suggestions about a "fair" payrate for his delegate debut...   ;)  ( of course if we agree and we get elected , I will for security reasons dismiss my current main delegate... )

I find him an interesting person.  I tend to like people who live their life to their own drummer.  That being said I don't think he could really deliver that much value to BTS.  I don't expect delegates etc to be seen as charity.  So even if I thought it was "ok" I can't imagine it going very well with the rest of the community.

So while I love his social experiment and his drive to do something for BTS, I can't see him being paid as a full delegate.  Approaching people on the street in Amsterdam is just not likely to be very effective.  It would be better if he produced video or some sort of interesting content that was totally different from standard BTS selling.  Outside of doing that, I can't see more than a few hundred dollars a month and he'd really have to show he was doing something.  People would scream precedent and everything else (and for good reason).

Now if he could put together some video of himself doing his thing and make a series of youtube clips..  one never knows, he might hit upon lighting in a bottle.

Make sense and that's why I am asking about a meaningful payrate for a start... It is obvious that 100% payrate would maybe not work right now ( I guess so too...) But what are all of you proposing?Would it be fair for something for example between 30%-60% ? What would be the best approach payrate wise for a successful start? Just throw some numbers here just to have a feeling about how I handle his potential delegate proposal... Don't forget we can vote him out if we change our mind or even  decrease payrate if we think it is too much !!!  I think it is worth trying and see what will happen... I am sure if we have positive feedbacks and he is more confident after he is elected that he will  consider seriously to experiment with videos too as you said... but let's start first with payrate proposals... If you are not sure please answer like this:  10%-20%,  30%-60% , 10%-50% etc. ...

I am back in Germany because of family stuff. The life here is so different and I wonder how I can live here without dieing from boredom. Soon I will get social welfare and I might start working as a hospital clown for the childrens hospital. Then I will have money to help people. For example I met a man without shoes, in winter.

A friend gave me an atom netbook, this time I have 2gb ram and I will try now if the camera and sound work under Linux. Then I will make some videos.

I have issues and sometimes I say things which later I will not do but I gave several people the latest version of my "business card".

Please tell us which payrate you would think would be appropriate. Happy new 2015!

Inspired from your name 38PTSWarrior...
I will make the start and will suggest a 38% payrate  ;) ... Maybe it is your destiny to be a 38BTSWarrior... take your 38% payrate weapon and convince the community you deserve much more !  :)

+++ first uncut video of a street delegate +++
I chose this name because of the word roadwarrior for people who work away from the office. I never joined the army and believe in peace. I like the 38 payrate and now I will show you my first video I shot with the new mobile phone.

First I asked Robert, the man in the video, if he would like to play the cameraman but it was difficult to find english speakers who would like to show their face in a video. Later he spontaniously decidet to do it, after I gave him the business card. My sincere respect and thanks to you Robert.

I do this since 1 year with around 10-50 people a day. I hope to build a good reputation. Check my other vids for credibility proof :D

Dear Germans, localbitcoins.com is not available in Germany since a few weeks. I only found out about this yesterday. I*m sorry that I linked you there!

What you can do is to register on https://www.kraken.com/ and buy the bitcoins there.

Edit: Deleted everything with BitStamp and inserted Kraken

 +5% for your efforts.

Some suggestions I wanted to make...

1.make videos that are max 1-3 minutes so that will motivate more people to see them (plus you can make more videos spending less time in that way)
2.Ask them what they like from the BTS technology (anonymity,transaction times, privacy, vision, bitAssets, ... etc...)
3.when you have enough little videos we can help to make a video-clip that concentrates the best statements from the new bitshares enthusiast's that you informed about the project...

just throwing random thoughts here...  ;)

After a long day I am back home. I made enough money for living and to make new fliers, this time front and back side. You can see the new content of the flier on https://sites.google.com/site/38ptswarrior/. The new video, this time several short ones cut together from today is here:

Your videos are definitely getting better.  The short editing.  Perhaps show more of Amsterdam.  Lots of neat things to mix in there.  Anyway..  keep at it, especially if you enjoy yourself.  I'm looking forward to more videos.

Thank you, feels good to get positive replies. I am back in Stuttgart because of private reasons and am trying to find a room.
Amsterdam is history. I could not make enough money there to buy a phone. You are right, it is a great place, everyone speaks english
which is important for the videos but now I am back here for the next years.

I am back with a video: http://youtu.be/gjg9qB3yQO4

This is the content of the flyer:

BitShares is a bank you can download on your computer. When you put money on your
account you will automatically own shares in it. Sending money only costs 3 cents maximum
for any amount. It is super easy to use. You can find the download link below.

BitAssets (bitUSD, bitGOLD, bitBTC,..) are the product of the bank. These are currencies like
Bitcoin, but with price stability and interest, pegged to the value of the real asset. (This means
that they have the same price). Imagine the possibilities! Last but not least you can mine
bitUSD with your own computer with 0% fees and bonus payouts for every miner, every day.

The founder of the bank, Daniel “bytemaster” Larimer says:

”.. to help create a free society by encouraging people to join our community which is centered
around , a next generation fully decentralized crypto-currency exchange. I use Austrian Economics
to engineer the economic incentives which make freedom and non-violence profitable.”


I believe in the whole idea and want to give everyone in the world the opportunity to have a
free bank account which cannot be taken away by anyone.

Thank you,

I liked the video.

Are there any biotcoin meetups you could attend and talk to the people and tell them about bitshares?

What do you think of the idea of handing out your fliers at university and college computer science departments and computer clubs?

Possibly add a link for downloading Bitshares101  That's probably one of the best sources for people to understand what bitshares is all about and Max guides them through getting started.
Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on February 19, 2015, 10:02:40 am
Good morning, nice to hear that you like it.

Bitcoin meetups: I am sure this would be possible (I fear that people would find it unappropriate to hand out fliers there but this is unnecessary I think). I am now slowly getting back into the flow and don*t want to have too many things on my mind. I will look for meetings and also think about making a workshop for BitShares.

University, computer club: Good idea, will focus on this today.

BitShares 101: I added this link to the flier: http://bitshares.tv/bitshares-101/

add after each link the  QR code graphic !!!
since from a flyer I assume they will very likely use their barcode scanners from their smart phones instead of typing the links...   ;) (at least I would do that and I would know for sure also that my referral id  would be included ) :)

Hi 38PTSWarrior:

Great job! 

If you would like to send your flier to Cass and ask him if he can format it nicely, with QR codes, that would be great. Ask him if he could make something high enough quality so that you could have fliers printed in either black and white for general handouts, or a few in color  (for higher value bulletin board locations).  If that gets accomplished, I will send you some funds for printing so that you can continue your valuable efforts.

Thank you dear listeners in Amsterdam, I had a blast and like that you can read my message here. One love and welcome to the forum! The 10 golden vip flyers for very friendly sponsors were soon gone and the other 39 black and white too after a while. I made 20 more in the morning. So all together 60 for around 7 euro.

Hi Martin:

I have sent you some more funds for printing fliers. But, before you do. please ask Cass if there is anything he could do to make them stand out more.  He has a magic touch, and when you put one on a bulletin board you want people's eyes to be attracted amidst all the competing clutter.

BUT

that's a reason to vote Martin in...
when you make the calculations with the 38% payrate they would receive about 50000 BTS /month with current BTS rate, that means about 500 euro per month , about 16 euro per day...  He could in that way print double the fliers he prints right now without the need of donations from each of us... Just expressing my thoughts here  ;)

Hi Martin,

I have sent you some bitUSD to help you pay for printing more posters. Great job.

Do you think you could make the color poster files available so that people in other countries could also print them up and put them up on billboards? That could really help spread the word.

Hi, I use Scribus 1.4.4 but you can open it without errors I read. Just put the files in a folder and then open "New from template". I hope this works cause
I couldn*t find out how to share project files yet. I think I will make one more today and integrate the link to bitshares 101. I am never sure if I should put so many links on it. Do you think it is important to write out the links for the qr codes? I would like to make the "perfect flyer" today.

I don't remember how much I sent you last time. But, if you get a reasonable quote on printing up 50 or 100 of these brochures, I will send you enough to cover it. Or, maybe print up 20 full color ones and 200 black and white?

I cannot find an online print shop which accepts bitcoin. Would you also pay with credit card directly to the shop and send it to my address? Prices are a bit cheaper than in the shop here. You can say that a double sided a4 print costs 80 euro cents. Online ordered they would be folded already i hope, guess.

I am asking because otherwise I would have to change from the currency you send me, to BTC, to Euro. And maybe the amount is not high enough, to exchange it here (I never sold low amounts on localbitcoins). Would you use localbitcoins or another method?

I walk around and introduce myself as an entertainer and financial adviser since a year. The people can choose between jokes, poems, etc. and then I also tell them about bitshares. I am somehow a panhandler/comedian/cryptoadviser but I only make 20-30 Euro per day. Not enough. 50 would be enough. I tell the people that I am freemarket and donation based and independent.
Because I stay outside on the weekends (prices of hostels too high), I meet many poor people. I would like to work with delegates to give them money/shoes/night in the hostel or a shower. To have a house to fix up homeless people is an idea I have since a while. From haircut, to new outfit, to psychological help, and so on. Out comes a new person.. :)
I usually give my username and btsx account and in case the people make some good investments, they can send me a thank you.
Besides showing them the bitshares.org website on their phones I have no offline material to show them. I need some tips from you.
Until now, I had maybe 3-5 people who paid around 5 Euro. Many told me to contact me, and I don*t give up hope, that at least one will finally send me private forum message.
I am really proud of how many people I told about how to buy btsx.
That's my situation. I need help in entrepreneurship, thank you so much

 
I have plans to do the same thing around here in Munich.
You can print up and hand out the new tri-fold flyers from @emailtooaj
 
https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=15169.0;all
 
Maybe put your email address and phone number on them too so the homeless can contact you if they have questions.
Get them into BitShares NOW while the price is low too, maybe even fund them $5 each or somethin?
I used to use the free library computers all the time for emails, skype calls, etc.

I am waiting to talk to emailtooaj about a few minor changes to the tri-fold before we print them up in quantity. After I have talked to him I will PM you about a way to send you funds for printing.  https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=15169.msg196613#msg196613

He is only getting the credit for designing the flyer.

You could either:

1: make up your own pamphlet to give out that has your bts referral on it

or:

2. print up a label with your name and referral account and stick it on the front of each flyer.

I honestly think that people should tip emailtooaj for the work he did on his flyer. His referral account is there for people who want to use his pamphlet to tip him if they want.

And I think people have been tipping you for walking around and talking to people about bitshares. Haven't we?

You need to think bigger, Pinky, Martin.
Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on March 27, 2015, 11:15:09 am
My thoughts:
Because I provided you the working files for my flyer I would also find it nice to get them from emailtooaj too.

Because the pamphlet is global and unpersonal, it would be good to have no name at all on it and pay emailtooaj for the work.

I don*t want to be childish and think bigger. That*s why I will hand them out. I already did and people read it last night.

I need a flyer and am disappointed that I have not the skills to make a nicer one. I like the 
symbols in the circles emailtooaj. I think I can steall them and make myself a new flyer. I want 6 parts on a A4 page. Somehow I will fiddle it together I think. But that since 4 weeks.

Should I ask someone to help me or make a bounty? What should I offer as price?

Thanks for your help and I agree with you onceuponyourtime.

A binded version would be good. The man in the print shop yesterday flipped it wrong.
Emailtooaj, I read that you have a A4 format. I need it :)

Full throttle everyone :)

My personal opinion is that a simple brochure like this is not difficult to craft and is also not time intensive. A committed community member could really have done the design for free and that 15% delegate pay could have gone to printing...

I sincerely appreciate AJ's effort to bring this together but in reality the copy is good, not great - and it just isn't that difficult to do this. When I have time this week I'll make another one.

Again - great work AJ - but it's a little disheartening to hear people quibbling over getting paid to do this. We should all be motivated to create copy and get it out there - growing the value of BTS is how we get paid.

Hey Cass - I'm the one that messaged AJ before the final copy and convinced him not define BitShares as an "untethered cloud type network".

His original copy had a lot of technical errors and anyone with a modest understanding of decentralized computing would have dismissed it as not credible fluff.

200 black and white tri-fold pamphlets from emailtooaj. Distributed yesterday and today. Sponsored by onceuponatime. Tomorrow more, although I am very tired because the hostel is now 26 Euros per night which is killing me. In Germany I could get welfare. I gave away flyers 12 hours today and yesterday and have only 25 flyers left.

Do you have any idea as to how many people to whom you are handing out flyers are actually going on to download the bitshares wallet? It might not be as productive to hand them out to just anyone on the streets. Perhaps you can think of places where there are more concentrations of technically and financially minded people. And where you could sit with them and guide them through the process.

Because the flyers (and your efforts) are valuable resources, quality rather than quantity of contacts is important. Person to person contact is time consuming and wasted on those who are unlikely to become adopters. Mass marketing randomly to everyone is more cheaply done on the internet.

And it might save you lots of walking  :)
Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on April 01, 2015, 10:51:33 am
I don*t know how many people download. The refscoreboard shows only people who registered. Because there is a built in faucet, there might be people who download it through my ref-link and then use the faucet.

I don*t hand out to everyone. Maybe 10 percent. Mostly I ask them if they are fed up by the government telling them what to do and the banksters who take all the money. When they say yes, I hand the flyer and explain a bit. Or I ask if they use bitcoin. Shop owners I tell that they can sell products. People mostly say, after I asked for bitcoin knowledge, that the problem is the volatility. Then I hand the flyer. But what I think is unbeatable is that when I sing them a song and make some jokes, they see how I tick and then they feel that we are on the same page and that this is not just a product but a piece of the puzzle to freedom.

Here one needs a license to have a shop on the street for art. I cannot keep up with costs of living. 31 Euro today. Money for food and flyers, folding.

The people have the feeling that the tri-fold is professional. But the black and white does not make them want to look at it. My flyers with the artwork in the background work like an eyecatcher and provoke emotions. The best would be a tri-fold which combines both.
So the people can see it is a open-source project with influences and networking from all areas.

I will print the 25 colored ones you paid for on glossy soon and place them in key spots.

Right now I have to do something about my situation here. To have a place to sit down would be the best. Good idea. A handful people wanted to download it while I sit next to them but then you have the old laptops, broken public wifi and other little things that stop the process.

Edit: Don*t forget my charity activity everyone please. I hand out to homeless people. I ask them are you poor? They say yes and I tell them that I believe this is the only way to get a bit of money for them in their situation and they appreciate this information the most!!

Hi, it is now 3 months since I proposed for a delegate. I paid liondani 24000 bts more than a month ago. I am stuck on position 140 and the server needs to be paid. Maybe the market has spoken and my proposal is not convincing to enough shareholders because of the whole +tax on+ problem and trust problem. I spent quite some money for flyers, maybe 100 to 200 euros. Then there are my working hours.. I work here for free, maybe 120 hours per month circa, I have no clue. I see PC, charging 50 euros per hour. He has very valuable work but I tell shop owners and people every day for several hours about bts and get nothing. How can i change my proposal so that people who already voted will not be disappointed. What should I do I need help people. I am so disappointed that my idea is not seen as valuable. Dont you see that helping people will attract users. The newspaper would write about it for sure. A dac which really helps p2p and not this bullshit the gov is doing. Please help.

Could you host your own informal meet-up?
You could write a time and a nice place outdoors on the pamphlets for people to come back if they want help setting up.
I'm sure that potential users would appreciate a specific time that they can come together as a group to have you walk them through it when they've got their personal devices with them!

If you're main target audience are others having a tough time, perhaps you could spend a lot of effort on getting one convenience store to accept bitUSD or bitEUR with the promise that you will direct all new users there to buy essentials.
If the shop owner is receptive, maybe you could host the informal meetup right outside his shop as advertising?

If you managed to do something like this, a few photos to show the shareholders would be good evidence to help your delegate proposal

Keep it up, I think what you're doing is great

This is a pretty nice idea! That way it would be easier, even to show our client via the web wallet. Show it to each person, individually is troublesome, but if you hold even a small meeting, you could do it. With time your meetings could get bigger.

I want to make a street shop. I talked with the Jehovas Wittneses and what they told me is worth true bitGold. They have a little trolley and because this counts as luggage, there is no need for a license. Because I dont have delegate pay I want to ask for donations in btc.
I need money for a2 size poster and a board with plastic cover. Also for a trolley. And business cards. Then i can work full time on the Street with high visibility. I thought about a car battery to have energy and a bike to transport it. A electricity machine which runs quietly costs 1000 euros which is a bit much. Solar power and battery is also expensive and heavy and large which is also not so good. Especially charging the battery could be a problem cause i live outside. Then I would need internet, mobile phone which isnt mine because i dont want to risk someone stealing mine. What do you think?

maybe investors feel more comfortable with your new plan, who knows  ;)

Keep us all updated with what you're doing!

Perhaps you should spend extra time and effort on ONE person with the aim of making them share in the BitShares vision and become your business partner?
I think that a team of 2+ people who can demonstrate their worth to the stakeholders by educating potential customers should be in a strong position to be elected Delegate.

Work on staffing your startup and then advertise and educate about BitShares.
You should provide proof that you have taken newbies, shown them WHY they want to use bitshares and how to use the bts client. (I understand that a working mobile wallet is critical for you to provide this).

If you could demonstrate that you and your startup company have introduced brand new people to BitShares and had them walk away with the wallet installed on their phone I would strongly support your delegate position and I think others will too.

You are showing real commitment to BitShares and I want Delegate funds to support you.
I just don't think you've provided the evidence to the stakeholders yet :)

Liondani, I would like to have a bit more contact with you about business because i tend to lose my confidence, and have difficulties to make decissions on my own. Let*s skype again soon. Or should i post that in the forum so we dont have this pm thing and so that people know what we communicate? Ok i will post this text now.
What i wrote in skype:

Hi! I didn+t want to spam the delegate section with my updates. But maybe it+s about time to make a little zusammenfassung (summary), of what i did in a short clip and post it there. The question is, should this go in my proposal thread or should i open a new one?

don't open a new thread... this is warm enough and will do the work... ;)
waiting for our skype session one of the next 2 days, maybe after 10.00 pm (?), let me know...

Boom! (http://i.imgur.com/1YOaCeI.jpg)

I really can't**  explain why you are still not elected?  :)
maybe because the shareholders know you will continue to contribute for free (?)  :P  (obvious just a joke  :))

** I am afraid it has more to do with the "voting apathy" and the very bad user experience to vote from our client ! (?)

Liondani, forget Skype, let“s talk only in public but thank you of course.
Because of the votes, I dunno. Maybe because there is no real business plan. Maybe that I should pay charity from my own money. I am going nuts because look how easy it was for blakcwavelabs to get elected and they never did anything other than posting bullshit. Still they are higher ranked than your martin the joker. PC, James Calfee, all voted in pretty quickly. So it had not much to do with voting.

That maybe means that the active voters are interested more for software developers, programmers etc. because they want a stable bug-free  client (first-priority) so we are ready for mass adoption...
Don't forget that almost all marketing  "efforts" failed miserably (result oriented), and it is very difficult to provide metrics about their progress ... 
If you could give to the community a proof of how many new users came (or will come) to bitshares  because of your efforts  (what about your referral account?), then maybe you would have better results(?)...

You're in Amsterdam? It just takes 1 coffee shop to use BitUSD and sell weed at a discount. BitShares will end up taking over the Mexican cartels. Jokes aside, are there any bitcoin meeting near you? Where you could setup a spot for bitshares? At least you would already be in a cripto-environment, it could be easier to reach out to people.

Akado, back in Germany, because of family. I told a coffeeshop about it. There are several users who live in the netherlands, maybe they have more luck.

Please help me answering the questions. I met a man who took a company to the stock market!

1. Which business ratios should the companies have we work with?

Which business data is important to BitShares, in order to work with companies?

2. How does the bank make ethical business?

3. Are there geographical limits?
4. What is our model portfolio?

My listener wants me to send him the model portfolio.

1. Which business ratios should the companies have we work with?
Not sure what the meaning of "business ratio" should be!?

Which business data is important to BitShares, in order to work with companies?
It seems he doesn't quite get that BitShares offers the technology of a stock
exchange. Not the legal framework, nor the business framework. YOu can have ANY
business data and still issue your stock/shares in BitShares.
BitShares assists with issuing, trading and managing shares. That's about it!

2. How does the bank make ethical business?
BitShares is software. "Ethical" doesn't apply.
If you're business follow ethical guidelines it's fine. But a) there is no
global consens about "ethic" b) nore is there any way to prevent any unethical
business to use bitshares.

3. Are there geographical limits?
Network propagation limits. Let's stick around earth for now. At least when you
want to sign blocks. Otherwise you can go to moon, mars, even pluto.

4. What is our model portfolio?
???

Wie sieht unsre Kennziffernorientierung aus?

Post by: xeroc on May 21, 2015, 07:26:09 am
Wie sieht unser Lastenheft aus? Für Firmen die sich daran beteiligen?
There is no "Lastenheft" ... Usually, firms should not invest into BitShares directly .. They should build business around BitShares leveraging the tools of BitShares.
Investing in BitShares is speculation .. pure speculation .. there is no inherent value in BTS .. except maybe for collateral

Quote
Welche Wirtschaftsdaten sind für uns am wichtigsten, für Firmen mit denen wir zusammenarbeiten?
We don't decide which firm works with us or doesnt .. they choose to .. and they do it .. the shareholders cannot do anything against it..
it's a decentralized network .. no single entity with power .. but the wisdom of the crowd :)

Quote
Wie sieht unsre Kennziffernorientierung aus?
Not an economist.

Quote
Und dann noch ein Musterportfolio.
BitShares does not offer a portfolio .. you have to put your stuff together on your own ..
buy bitUSD/bitGOLD ... MOONFUND .. it's YOUR business .. not the task of some anonymous guy in a bank ..

The guy you talked to doesn't get what BitShares does .. yet .. maybe we should do a better job distinguishing BitShares from Banks .. because BitShares is NOT a bank .. it's a toolkit that you can use to build a bank .. or be your own bank ..

I'm really looking forward to your Hangout with fuzzy tomorrow 38pts, is there any particular topic you would like to discuss with the community?

I'd like to hear how exactly you've been marketing to people and some of the conversations you've had with the public.

Have you got any plans on how you want to improve your service?
Do you need feedback on any ideas?
From your first hand experience have you found a particularly effective way to explain BitShares to people?

At the moment I do not discuss crypto with anyone outside the circle as I'm yet to find an effective TL;DR for bitcoin, and a good enough sales pitch for bts.
Which aspects do the public seem to respond to most favorably?

I just made contact with one lieing cop. Another cop, named Mr. Grund, gave me a sending-off for nothing. Don*t make business with him. Another policeman called them and lied about the situation. Now I have to go to court, my statement vs his and his wife. Thanks life!

I asked a couple with a child if they have a minute. The woman was very mean and told me to leave them alone. Then I said that I don*t want anything to do with them and that I think the way she talks with me is disgusting. Then her husband showed me his police card and told me that he will report me for insulting them and 5 min. later the police came.
After they did the paperwork, mr. Grund told me that I cannot stay in the center of the city until the next day. I asked why. He said that I disturbed the public order. I said, that he wasn*t there and did not see anything and that I didn*t disturb the public order. He just gave me the setting-off anyway, without explanation.
I went to the police station to report him 5 minutes later. I asked for a written statement about mr. Grund*s reason for the setting-off.
First a young cop said he will do it. Then the two cops from the street earlier appeared. They had a little conversation in the back room. Then he told me that I cannot do anything against the setting-off and I left but forgot the written statement. When I returned a minute later, one of the cops told me, after I asked for the statement, that if I would not disappear immediately, they would arrest me. I then left.

A little trip to Amsterdam is always refreshing. I never stop telling the peeps about how they can benefit from using BitShares. While hitchhiking, and the last 2 days while walking around. A new print today. I think 100 A5 flyers for 6.30.
My new A2 infograph helps a lot.

Hello Martin,

Do you have a printing shop that accepts internet orders from the united states that you work with?

If I paid to have a larger number of fliers printed up would you be able to make use, or is it better to print smaller numbers at a time?

What do you think would be the best payout?  full color, black and white?  a mix as before?

What file would you suggest I have printed?  I am guessing that an internet order will require that I upload the file at order, and specify your name as the pickup party.

let me know.

Color. Both sides. Size of credit card, and made out of plastic. That would be good.
I can give you an address to ship it to me.
Full power red orange mix little pink you know this special color
So it looks good in the club and the people can grind their drugs with it.
Maybe they ship cheap and fast to the netherlands from your country.
What about this line on it: the bank account for your lifestyle
Or somerhing like that.

I tend not so much towards the artistic type.  If you can link background files you would like to use, foreground text, size and possibly font.  A url that can be set as a qr code.  There are numerous companies that will print plastic business cards, which should be great for cutting up drugs.  Worst case scenario I can mail them personally if these companies wont ship to you direct.

If anyone else has any ideas for a proper design please let me know.

The QR code is just http://bitshares.org

They will be printed on white plasting.  I can have a couple hundred delivered to you in about 2 weeks.  Let me know what you think.  I went with fractals because I am not very artistic.  I also like fractals and think I would like fractals even more if I was on drugs.

Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: puppies on June 26, 2015, 03:37:42 am
Thanks Martin. 

No need to pay out the bounty, but I won't turn away bts.  My bts account name is puppies.  Please at least wait till you have received the cards.  I am concerned that the qr code will be too small to be reliably scanned.  If that's the case I wouldn't feel as if I earned the bounty.
Title: Re: My experience as financial adviser so far
Post by: 38PTSWarrior on June 26, 2015, 08:22:37 am
The bounty is also not enough to pay the cards and shipping so this makes you a donator, a very generous one.
Once I will get an income I can give you back the costs.
Let*s be optimistic with the qr code readability and if it will not work, at least we did something.

Hi, what would be a good link in your opinion?
I would like to get my ref-program going. So maybe a link to my site. I like bitshares.org because it doesnt make the users scared when they see the ref. Also a link to this thread would be good. So the people can get a feeling for the community.
That you offer round 2 is amazing amazing!

The qr code together with my user name on our great sponsor puppies plastic cards. The quick intros for the folk with super good feedback.

I took a hit yesterday. Minus 26 million votes but I will adapt to the situation. How could I keep going and sing songs without knowing that I get carried by the light of joy, my personal highway towards infinity..
