Re

WOW
Congratulation for so many great ideas how tto promote Bitcoin in the public.
We really need successful promo ideas which can help us to become mainstream.
When merchants start to accepting bitcoin as method of payment we will make breakthrough.

thank you for creating this thread... bitcoinadoption.org Will link to this and use this for now until we create a more formal system.

Great idea, let's do this.

needs a rebrand

"in cryptography needs no trust, its the truth"

plus my list of merchant i helped are from 2 years ago until now.. so its a big list, so unfair for me to post all my merchants i got onboard. but this idea the OP offers should help everyone else.

people in africa should sign up

.02 bitcoin is a days salary

Ok, we are linking here now.  (our site is new)
http://bitcoinadoption.org/incentives.php

Also, we have a donation address set up.
Most of our donations for now will go to
support this thread with additional bounties.

Whether you want the money or not, we would
love to hear about efforts to approach local
busineses.

awsome idea! looking for some business like this
cheers for the creators

The idea of community which creates its own championes and sponsors is so nice! I think it will make our community sweet and warm. I really want to be a sponsor but for now I'm low on cash :( but I hope that I will be fine before the next campaign.

This is a very imaginative and interesting initiative
I am sold and in!

Great!  Are you going to be putting up a bounty or introducing businesses to Bitcoin?

Not many people know this, but being a Mayor, Judge or Sheriff usually has NO REQUIREMENTS except to win an election and be a certain age. I have seen people win elections in small towns won with people holding "Honk if You're Voting for X" signs on a busy corner.

Our politicians and news anchors freak out when their twitters blow up, just like everyone else. tweet @GovernorPerry "If you legalize weed you could afford to keep weed from coming across the border"

America began as a land of Christians, running from Christians. Then eventually it gained its independence from Britain with the help of a Muslim (Moorish) Empire (before that anyone who say a boat with an american flag would sink the ship). Then we started accepting Jewish, Irish and MANY MANY other refugees.

interested i have many forum account high quality post and trusted looks
easy to advertise and get people to join
in many forum . im forum poster and my work advertise in internet if you intereste
you can pm me with detail :)

Regrads by me  ;)

get to work, bounties are already posted.

please ignore bitcoin-hotep AKA finshaggy. he is a bit of a dreamer that has little to add to bitcoin projects, he just wants people to read his posts and watch his video's

but dont worry your not missing anything by ignoring him, i have read every single post he has made on his two username and watched every video on his 2 youtube channels... they lack alot of substance and meander far far off the bitcoin path and deep into the unknown reality which we call imagination and fiction, but he calls it his home.

but hey, the world is open to anyone, if only this forum had a warning on it "may contain nuts" then atleast people can stay away from these type of people that try to make bitcoin look like a place where crackpots waste their time.

if only these ego maniacs put their imaginations to something creative to help bitcoin adoption, rather than basement dwelling out brainfarts of uptopian dreams unrelated to bitcoin.

Here is my application:

http://i61.tinypic.com/2igyk49.png


IUO guys how will the react?

BR.

yolo, please give name and location of business

I sent out two, I shop for books regularly at both of them.
One is www.thriftbooks.com Main branch is in the US but they ship worldwide.
the other is www.homeshop18.com/books (homeshop18 book section). I didn't use that shop for anything but books so I guess it would make the best influence to contact the department I been involved with.

So we can get these prizes (for example 0.02 of bitbandit) just if we will help promote bitcoin to some company?

yes

Oh i thought it's normal bonus ;D that's why it seemed so fishy for me.

Just confirming I already received 2 prizes within this hour! Thanks CryptoPanda and everyone sponsoring this contest.

Where should I send the prize?
Don't see an address, or I'm blind ;)

I got a reply and have sent the 0.02 BTC

Thanks everyone! got my three prizes, I won these just for few minutes work, Why don't you give it a try as well?  ;)

agree!  THERE IS MONEY FOR THE TAKING :)

I hope i will get some sponsors soon at www.bitcoinadoption.org
for the very purpose of adding bounties here.

Just added the materials links, building it up day by day.

Chain Radio will throw in on this. We will give away a thirty second advertisement spot to the winner to promote a product or service.

If you don't have a produced thirty second radio spot we will have our personalities do live reads.

This won't be a one off thing but we will run your advertisement or do a live read at least 50 times over a two week period.

Gambling advertisements are welcome.

We launch on Monday at 10am Eastern: http://ChainRadio.com/ (http://ChainRadio.com/)

Get some free promotion for your bitcoin site, product or service.

great promo!

Hmm, so it has to be a real business? What about e.g. a community or a service running on donation/pledges who was only accepting like PayPal or credit cards before?

Anyways - Here's what I have have to offer (start reading at the bottom!);

http://s14.directupload.net/images/140725/xh9lqvbe.jpg

Basically an example how to turn a (quite random) newsletter into a BTC-pledge-enabling request.
One of my first attempts doing so and I think for that the result was pretty ok-ish... :)

That was so incredibly well done on contacting them after a newsletter.

Sending my email to radio

I'll vouch the following prizes too:

10 Magnetic Decals

20 To the moon stickers

10 clear window decals

10 Bitcoin Postage Stamps




www.honeybadgerofmoney.com.  Its my profession to spread awareness and adoption through attending local meetup events, selling merchandise, reaching out to local businesses that I frequent.  (last place was @pho.com which is a great restaurant)  Came by in person and followed up about a prior conversation I had a with them a few months ago.  I also offer the Skyhook tabletop ATM for sale as well.  I'm glad to see these efforts are here and would like to also participate.

Well I'll have to think of good way to do this, will get back to this thread soon I hope with something interesting.

I told my dad that he should accept BTC as payment for his business (he has a small office) and he told me that he doesn't want to accept something that acts as a stock as a method of payment. I cant convince him. The volatility makes him see it as something that isn't a currency.

Yeah, sending over a PM

FWIW I love free money  ;D

Also I think getting this post out there is part of the challenge of participation - its one thread amongst many many different websites that consumers use for BTC news - I could simply sit on twitter most days and could get the same quality of fix that I could from reddit or letstalkbitcoin.com

I have this experience before! I wish an online shop can accept bitcoin, much better than wiring money and deal with exchange rates. Good campaign OP!

Announcing Whitegrey as my choice of winner of the last page (#2) - I like his efforts and want him to continue hijacking newsletters with BTC requests often!

Please PM me with your address so I can send you a prize of your choice from what was listed!


HBOM LOGO Magnetic Decal

To the Moon bumper sticker

clear window decal

OR Bitcoin Postage Stamp

I randomly chose giveBTCpls as my winner from page 2: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=699803.msg8016519#msg8016519

giveBTCpls, apparently you don't live in the US but I'm still willing to send you a cap if the cost of shipping isn't too high. PM me so we can work something out.

Hmmm interesting. This plan sounds almost like a Ponzi, but isn't one :D :D It rewards people for bringing in new ones. But those people trying to bring in new ones don't have to put down money to be in the game. An interesting idea!

Not a "business" again (I guess, even tho some organizations behave like businesses or companies) but I think this sector is also very important; Because it's basically for doing good things with Bitcoin... And maybe this will get the whole topic into a direction that lets us forget part of all the 'illegal' stuff Bitcoin is still associated with (and some of this image will stay there forever as Bitcoin still is without a doubt - let's just speak the truth here - a tool or opportunity for fraud, ponzi, money laundering and stuff)... What I mean ist; Charity, crowd-funding, personal support of people in need and so on... So it's not a business or at least it shouldn't be, but well - I pesronally rather focus on that one, because that is what I feel is right for me :)

The good thing with this is that these projects or organizations can often be found on social media or on the webs in general - especially if they want to fund something or if they want to reach out for a bigger 'audience'... So it's not that difficult to contact them in first place (like it might be the case with mainly local business & shops, having their established market, maybe don't even remotely thinking of expanding or maybe don't even have a homepage yet)...

Example -> floodings in Slovenia earlier this year, via facebook;

http://s14.directupload.net/images/140731/ncxm6bs5.png

My credo doing so; Always be positive and friendly - don't force it on anybody; Tell them why it is a good option - and show them how fast it works (the blockchain is the best proof)!

I have one or two other examples I guess (with bands and crowd-funding e.g.) but I have to dig out the screenshots first...

I havent been around for days so I forgot about this. I don't really understand, whats the price? I accept BTC  8)

Hmm, I can't believe nobody is jumping on...
Come on guy's - it's not that hard to endorse Bitcoin! ;)

Here's my latest try to convince somebody to jump onto Bitcoin (for receiving donations);
http://s17.postimg.org/qpwf8spn3/mari_takenouchi.png

Hope she'll get into it! :)

In the meantime I've received mail from Oregon!
Big thanks goes out to www.HoneyBadgerOfMoney.com :)

So this is totally real, even with international shipping!
I hope some more people will promote BTC now and post their attempts and success-stories here now ;)

I'm surprised with some of the success stories we are hearing from something which should of been done a long time ago good job guys I haven't had any success yet though the most I've heard is "we are considering our options".

In my neighbourhood there are about 1000 small businesses that would love to claim independence from the €uro and from their banks who are seen as tools of the main government (the region is also trying to gain independence for years ; its Catalunya in Spain).
Anyway, I'm positive my area could be a micro btc commerce hub where most of those businesses would be up for adoption. I was thinking of printing leaflets and dropping them into each place door to door over the course of few weeks. Trouble is i cant afford to print anything like that, and most business owners would not put the effort in to doing their own research if they just got an email with a link tbh, business here is best done face to face and explaining it every time would take forever, id need to be able to leave reading material.

Is imagine btc would thrive in places seeking independence,  like Catalunya , Scotland, tibet, chechnya, bask, wales, tamil, kurdistan...

Anyway, if anyone is interested in sponsoring this venture is be happy to post results here, or if anyone is in the Gracia area of Barcelona and want to talk about this idea let me know!

k so radio shack and suntech power holdings are the two that I have money invested in and would be really cool if they would accept my bitcoin donations or start taking payment for products via bitcoin. Both companies have been experiencing some bad luck recently and I think this might just be the kicker to turn up the heat on the frosty company's commerce.

I really just want to see these companies do well the solar company for its green aspects and radio shack for the good faith ive had toward them in dark times. I did mail both of these companies letters but have not received anything in return, the letter simply asks for the company to reach out to possible resources like bitcoin ie bitcoin and start accepting donations at the very least. It was nothing extravagant, rather concise actually but not sure if they who matter saw them or not.

So to RadioShack and Suntech Power go for the bitcoin ;D

Great, we should do it!

Im a guy, so can we do guys for bitcoin too? I will help! But I am 200lbs and is balding. :)

Nobody is stopping you bud! I am sure the domain "DudesForBitcoin.com" is likely to still be available, pick it up and we'll partner up ;)

I will post my email and response from Restoration Hardware when I get to a computer

Received, thank you!

I have some more interesting posts for this thread to come - when I get replies (I hope:)

There is enough free porn on the internet that I would seriously doubt that people would want to buy amateur porn in large numbers (although everyone does have their own fetish).

Free porn is not quality porn my friend. And it's not made just for you, these girls are real and you can have them say your name during a vid or whatever you'd like.

bump

fare quite expensive. I see all too old, rare for ages 20 down

I would rather watch the ridiculously good looking models from sites like metart than amateur girls.

How would this accelerate the adoption of bitcoin?

It would be cool if we could do a CPR on this thread (after the BTC-girls spam [no offense]) :)

Not a 'real' achievement as they've accepted Bitcoin already - but I wanted to point out to them that they could make it more obvious or better known that they actually do so... facebook is always a good way to do so for example.

https://i.imgur.com/Tvv8eAc.png

They take direct action in supporting Nepal after the earthquake (not only with that, also with schools for kids and stuff) - you might want to send them a small tip if you want to! I did already and it feels good ;)
