Dear Bitshares community,
it is with great enthusiasm that I introduce the worker for a Bitshares Marketing Sponsorship, of the 4th edition of SteemFest, the annual global get together for the Steem and other Graphene chains, already in it's 4th editionThis worker (
id: 1.14.209) - is
escrowed by the Bitshares Blockchain Foundation and I hope you will consider your vote, to help promote the Bitshares Blockchain further.
After 3 successful editions in various main cities scattered in Europe (Amsterdam, Lisbon, Krakow), this year SteemFest heads to Bangkok in Thailand for 5 days of conference, workshops, networking and some fun. Previous editions of SteemFest attracted attendees from over 50 countries across the world and seeing about 15% originating from Asia every year, it felt like a logical step to make it easier for this part of the world to join in and enable anyone to enjoy the fruits and adventure that awaits in Krung Thep (BKK in Thai
)!
A sponsorship by Bitshares at SteemFest will give a generic amiable view on Bitshares, as the core principle for Steemfest is to be as accessible as possible by having a low entry level ticket price for plankton/minnow users and then gradually building up prices for those who can afford more. Thanks to the sponsorships, tickets for plankton & minnow users are priced well under the actual cost price.
Bitshares will literally be profiled as a very kind philanthropist making the event possible to attend for those not so wealthy. It is a great way to demonstrate the power of this blockchain. Did you know that Steem is considering implementing a worker proposal system designed after BTS' in a future hardfork?
BitShares sponsorshipThis sponsorship through a worker will give BitShares:
- Growth in brand recognition:
- deep integration in all event’s promotional media (see below)
- tbd: dedicated rollup banner ‘booth’ at the “wall of dapps” expo during conference days in the breaks-area.
- A chance to attract new users to BitShares by:
- getting a 20 minute presentation slot at main SteemFest⁴ event one of the conference days.
- using 3 unique competition rounds for the 5 included SteemFest tickets to the event to raise awareness for Bitshares (see below)
BitShares SteemFest⁴ Sponsorship - What’s included- 5 x full (5 day) conference give-away tickets - raffled in 3 dedicated competitions on the SteemFest account on the Steem chain. Including announcement and newsletter to 1000+ subscribers.
- 2 x full (5 day) conference tickets for official BitShares delegates. To be used for 1-2 speakers attending SteemFest on behalf of the BitShares Blockchain.
- BitShares Speaking Slot at the SteemFest mainstage, livestreamed and recorded too.
- BitShares branding (logo) included on: website, mobile app, printed map of Bangkok, every attendees badge, opening slides, all future official event announcements on Steem, every future newsletter (to about 1000 steem users / previous attendees), on the digital pdf tickets every attendee obtains and wherever deemed reasonable in the event decorations (like banners, video bannering decorations, etcetera)
- a dedicated rollup banner booth for Bitshares to be placed in the “Wall of dApps” expo along 15-20 products/services
- BitShares branded insert in the goodiebag for all attendees - brochure, sticker or both.
- BEET voting widget on steemfest.com to show the power of the Bitshares DAO worker system.
Funding the Bitshares sponsorshipAfter a succesful escrow of SteemFest 2018,
Bitshares Blockchain Foundation was willing to escrow and have honoured the request to manage the bookkeeping and claiming of vesting balances of this worker.
The Bitshares sponsorship costs 10,000 EURO (to be paid in bitCNY 80,000). Left-over BTS will be refunded by Bitshares Blockchain Foundations' transparent bookkeeping. Obviously I'm biased but I think this fund will not make a dent in the Bitshares Reserve funds but does have it's impact!
Usage of sponsorship moneyThe sponsorship money will be used to cover the generic event budget and therefor helps lower the ticket price for those not so wealthy. Like previous years, we aim to have the lowest ticketprice for SteemFest at 50% of the actual cost price per attendee. This is only possible thanks to sponsorships. A Bitshares sponsorship enables about 35-50 additional of these lowest priced tickets.
Voting - worker proposal: 1.14.209 I hope you will consider voting for this worker proposal and help spread the word of Bitshares amongst the Steem blockchain and SteemFest 4 attendees.
Should you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me via public response, PM or via telegram.
Yours on the chain,
@roelandp
