What do you think about social media campaign bounty program? Recently I got the complaint with my follower in twitter. She asks me why I do that (share something about ICO and cryptocurrency and probably she don't know about cryptocurrencies). They want to unfollow me if I do that again. I'm sure she feels the disturbed. In a week my follower decrease until 2000 from 22000 to near 19700.  :'( I'm very sad and thinking is this effective or not using social media to promote a product of ICO cryptocurrencies?

You should expect those scenarios on where most of our followers wont really be aware on what crypto is which they would normally either got disturbed or wont really like to see it which would result into such actions on unfollowing you and since you engage into social media campaign then you should embrace this thing on where you should be ready that your followers will gradually decrease even more but still this depend though because not all the times people are being disturbed by ICO related things.

if in my opinion it is very effective for processors through social media, I have never heard anything like this. if it feels disturbed please just do not follow me because it's a risk that must be taken by us as bounty social media. but I find it strange to lose 19000 ++. as long as I follow my followers bounty campaign even more.

Social media is one of the most effective marketing to introduce, offer and attract investors. In your case, I think it is clear that followers who leave you are people who do not know and maybe they do not like crypto. But if you want to spend some time, then give them knowledge of crypto and what you do is not a spam action, but a marketing activity. So you can educate them about crypto and maybe they will have a chance to become a new investor in the world of crypto.

You aren't alone i have lost a lot of followers on twitter especially.I think the best solution is to create a twitter account dedicated solely for bounty hunting else you will lose all the followers who don't know you actually make money retweeting about ICOs.

many people still treat cryptocurrencies and such ICOs as scam or ponzi scheme .
bcoz govt and banks already said this is bubble .
so it might be one of the reason .

better to have another account for such promotional activities .

How much do you follow social media campaigns?
if you follow up too much, your followers are right to stop following!
maybe you should give comfort to your followers. eg with a giveaway.

it's likely that your subscribers are not the target audience for the promotion of the crypto currency, or they just are not interested in this topic, besides people are mistrustful of the crypto currency and many believe that this is another type of fraud

your subscribers may think that you are spreading spam, so they unsubscribe from you, or subscribers may think that you are engaged in fraud, because many people are sure that crypto-currencies and all that is associated with this fraud

I understand your subscribers and friends from social networks, people do not like when they impose something on that thing, your friends can think that you are engaged in spam and therefore are signed off from you, in addition to crypto-currencies and everything associated with them, you need to advertise the target audience that understands in this thread

a marketing arena of a product or website to be more in demand by the community in return for IOST or bitcoin, and other digital currencies, by proposing some rules if we get into the campaign. risk if we do not comply with the rule then it is not paid or even issued.

For most of the people even the word crypto currency is unknown then how can we expect them to invest on ICO.Actually the bounty team wasting their funds for you because you don't have crypto related followers.Yeah it is better to stop promoting the ICO in your twitter because it won't help the project anyway.But twitter and facebook campaigns are main platform for advertising about crypto currency the main platform is our forum where we have people only related to crypto market.

I'm also annoyed with my friends on facebook who are sharing things that are not of my interest. Expect this to come since that woman whom complaint isn't a coiner.

This isn't effective if you have friends that are not open and don't know anything with cryptocurrency. If you are worrying that you will decrease your followers then just expect it to come but make sure that you are also ready for any consequences that can be followed up as a result.

Some followers or friends just do not want to see some advertisement about cryptocurrencies because they have seen so many of it and they cannot see the updates of their other friends or followers because there are so many ICOs that you promote. Just look at the positive side of things, you still have 19,000+ followers. Others even don't reach 1,000 followers so you should be glad you still have many to promote some ICOs. If possible, you can post other things that your followers will be interested aside from cryptocurrencies so that they will not unfollow you.

Depending on the person, if our friends feel disturbed by our activity in social media, they will be compliant against us. But so far my follower is still fine, does not show resentment to my activity. Indeed social media is very potential to serve as a place to campaign advertising cryptocurrency, because all time everyone will see social media.

Social media is efficient and effective enough for the campaign,

In marketing we know about the Cost per Million, that means How many people get the information from one action.
In The social media, we make one action of the post, all of our followers will get the information.
And If we have more follower the cost will be cheaper.

For your case, you better make another statement to explain what is the cryptocurrency and ICO before you share your bounty campaign information.
If they have known what our goal of the information of the bounty campaign, I think they will be not feel disturbed.

Indeed, The finally depend on them, will the information be useful or not.
But at least they will take into consideration to unfollow from your social media account.

Oh, this is one of the reasons why I'm not participating in bounty campaigns. Probably 90% of my friends/followers aren't interested in crypto. I don't want to disturb by spamming ICO advertisements just to get some tokens. They just will lose interest in my posts. Offcourse, I could make another prifile which will be dedicated to crypto activities, but there would be to much hassle to get many real friends/followers and I'm not planning to waste my time on social media bounties to get small rewards for all this stuff.

Actually this problem is very confusing, the other hand we need social media to serve as advertising cryptocurrency. But the other side many our friends who still do not know the world of cryptos, most likely they are will be disturbed by everything we have done.

The main factor is they do not know what is cryptocurrency what is ICO project and what is Airdrop. So, the people who did unfollow or give an opinion that they do not like the activity that we do is those who do not like and do not understand cryptocurrency.

But all this time I have never followed bounty campaign with social media. I can not sacrifice a personal account that I have used as a cryptos ad. I prefer to join the signature campaign and focus on this forum.

As we all know social media is the most effective way of advertising, but not all of them understood what you are advertising. For those who dont understand, of course it will annoy them, thats why someone ask you about it and I think you just didnt deliver perfectly and use some term or words that can easily be understood by the people who has no clue about cryptocurrency.

Am I really the only one who believes that social media campaigns aren't as effective as most people believe? I don't see the effectiveness when a participant in such a campaign posts 10-15 tweets/retweets a day, despite having a >90% Twitter Audit. Furthermore, as it has been mentioned above, there is no way to tell whether the followers are even interested in cryptocurrencies.

As I will soon start my bounty campaign management service, I'll be considering putting a relatively small % of the tokens into social media. I'd rather focus on signature and articles/videos. I'd rather advertise a project to a crypto-interested audience than to an audience clueless about crypto.

Social medias are used by everyone in this moder world so running those campaigns might attract the new investors to the field by as he said more people don't have idea about it but if they can do some research about it after thay saw something then it can really help them for their better future life.

Most people on the social medias are too lazy to research anything that they don't know, they just ignore it or leave it as it may. So you might expect of decreasing your follower if you engage in joining the social media campaign. You were lucky if an investors see your ads/post that happens to know also the cryptocurrency because it is so rare to find a business minded people.

While I have never participated in a social media campaign this is to be expected, people do not like to get advertising without their consent so if they feel that you are doing that in order to get profits it's very likely that many people are going to stop following you so your only options are to get more followers that know about cryptocurrencies or accept the fact that your followers are going to go down.

I think that social media campaigns aren't effective at all. Mostly bounty hunters aren't using their main accounts for social media accounts. And mostly of their friends/followers are just other bounty hunters who aren't interested to invest. And fact that they are posting advertisements of multiple project also don't help.

thats not quite true . Social media campaigns are one of the most best method in order to advertise an ico or any other projects because its pretty obvious that majority of the people all over the world are now using a social media to interact with other people and to do other business as well. if you have a crypto related friends or followers , they maybe invest on your posted links or tweets if ever they were trully interested.

but the pay rate on most social media campaigns are i think verry low or below the  minimum wage on what sig campaigns usually pays , maybe because the task is easy to do when compared to other types of campaigns.

So I don't care about those lazy stupids and bitches.But later they will realize what is the crypto currency and worry for their laziness in the early stages.I don't care about if the followers decreasing just make money in what way you have the social media campaigns is a way for it,the number of followers don't have any benefit in real life.

what are you experiencing also I experienced. all my social media friends ask. what is it that you send, they ask and i answer it, and finally they understand about what i send in my homepage on facebook and tweeter

I see your point quite clearly, but only in a parallel universe where participants don't tweet and retweet about 15 ICOs a day. That is the main issue.

The second issue is that nobody can effectively gauge the effectiveness of the advertising provided by a twitter / facebook account due to the lack of knowledge about the people's interest regarding cryptocurrencies. If Bob isn't into crypto, he will surely not start researching about an entirely different world just to invest in an ICO.

Social media bounty programs give you good rewards and there is minimal effort involved. Unlike signature campaigns where you have to strike quality discussions, social media campaigns only expect you to retweet their links which is as easy as it can get. You shouldn't worry about your followers decreasing because any number over 10000 followers would give you maximum stakes.

Twitter/facebook bounty is not as good as they should,be .

There afe too many scammer that try to abuse the program,

And many newly made account just for the sake of bounty hunting, follower 10k.
But no retweet or like at all from the ‘friends’
So no expose at all.

I really agree with you very much. they just do not know and do not want to know. if they knew, maybe they would be like us. if they stop following us, it's okay. we just have to continue it as usual. but it depends on your decision too. do you want to continue or want to stop being bounty social media campaign.

I think social media is one way to promote a project, is it effective? Yes I think it is very effective.
let me guess that most of your followers do not know crypto, right, If so, That is why they are annoyed by your post, and I think if you continue posting about crypto what they do not know about that and like spam on their wall you will lose more of your follower.
this is different if they are interested in crypto

That is the reason why some of the bounty rules required a 90% your followers have any correlation/interest with cryptocurrencies. It is indeed an ineffective way if the rules excluded the 90% followers requirements, because the regular people did have any single knowledge about cryptocurrencies.

I think social media is one way to promote a project it is very effective. It helps to create awareness and enlightens people who do not have an idea of crypto, by so doing, you give them a knowledge about it especially when they read more about the scheme and they will decide if it is profitable or not.

Your follower got disturbed? How many times you retweet for one day?

If you retweet just once for 1 day, i think your follower not be disturbed. I've experienced before it, but some of my follower interesting about that. Its about what time you make a post on your twitter.

I suggest to retweet your campaign just once a day. Better time is sleeping time to retweet something like ICO.  ;D

Just 1 tweet per ICO and I have joined about 10-20 ICO ;D so totally I have to tweet/retweet 10-20 ICO per day.

Thank you for your responses guys, but I mean there are many people who do not know what the heck its cryptocurrency. Before we offer about ICO, I think we should tell them first about what the heck its blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, bitcoin, ethereum, erc20, how it will work and give us a profit or help our financial to gain wealth, and so on.

If social media campaigns were as ineffective as you thought don't you think that those campaigns would have disappeared already or at least be on their way to disappearing? In fact what I'm seeing is the opposite, I see more and more people involved in those kind of campaigns which tells to me that those campaigns are a lot more effective than we thought.

I think social media is the most effective campaign. With social media news spread faster ..
lack of knowledge about cryptocurrency assumes you spam or robot. .
I was once like you denagan followers who continue to decrease but it does not matter to me    :D

in other things, I think social media campaign is very helpful to follow the campaign for beginners, but sometimes not profitable for those who have often follow social media campaigns because it is not in accordance with the results of the ground

Everyone has his own view of the world, some do not know what crypto-currency is, that's what they are describing! And it's better to think with your own head (whether it's worth advertising the ICO in social networks) Personally, my opinion: I would not listen to other people and would be on my own, the more you earn on it!

I think the campaign through social media is very effective compared to others. because the average of those people all have social media without being pegged by age. so people will easily see it. for friends who stop following us I've never experienced it until now. even they ask and curious with status status that I make.

I think social media campaign bounty programs are good and effective as they are possible and easy ways to educate people with zero knowledge about cryptocurrency. Through this means, many people are convinced about d crypto world and there after show their interest in it, it even provide insight about that project you are into and how it works.

That's why some would say you cant really please everyone and you cant have everything too. If those are your real followers and real friends then maybe you should tell them or at least educate them on why you need to do those things on your social media then it would lessen them to unfollow you.

When we do talk about bounty program then most likely project owners would always target exposure and possible to hook up with possible investors. We do know that social media people or traffic doesnt really have the good rate of people who are aware of crypto which means it doesnt really make effect and why we do see token allocation is smaller compared into other bounty program.Casual people would able to see crypto related things will usually neglect unless if his/her curiosity will be provoked then he might engage as well.

With participation in the bounty you need to be prepared for such consequences. can not only unsubscribe people, but the social networks themselves can block your account. From this no one is trapped.

Social media campaign are the most effective way to promote the ICO campaign because most of the newbies can easily participate in the ICO campaign without any problem. People should manage to get more than 200 followers in order to participate in bounty campaign, but due to the majority of the people, we will be getting very less amount for the campaign.

There's actually quite little research available on effectiveness of social media campaigns - but you also need to consider what is deemed effective. If the campaign's aim is simply to promote awareness of the project, then this is typically achievable by this method: content is pushed out to new and diverse audiences. The more reputation and credibility owned by the social media owners, the higher the conversion (of readership at least).

There is a definite correlation, however. The more successful ICOs have had huge social media followings, with their own followers also promoting well the brand and ideas to their own audiences. Perhaps in time, metrics will be more easily obtainable, as people become more crypto aware, audiences are more likely to engage beyond their first exposure on social media.

So it means social media is the most effective way to promote not only an ICO, any product based companies will get awareness through social media.
I see not only ICO, many other major companies targeting their product through social media advertising in order to get awareness.

I am sure that many people are experiencing inconvenience over friendship with us in social media, because it is our goal to send many ads to social media let many know, it's just that many do not know what I spread the ads

I think it's effective because ICO needs promotion and social media is great for promotion because it's a lot of users and it certainly helps developers to make it easier to introduce their projects.

not every one are open minded with these things, it seems that people still finds cryptocurrency as just a scam especially those ICOs conducted almost everyday, if you don't want to lose your followers i guess you have to stop doing social media campaign  ;D

Ignorance on they’re part (our followers) is the main reason and not for us to be sad about. It’s them that ignored the possibility of learning and profiting something from us who shares this cryptocurrency projects. Don’t blame yourself for it my friend, it just that let them be as passive as they want to be and dont be bothered by it. Target a followers who’s into crypto than any other.

Social media campaign are one of the most effective ways to promote a project and get people's idea or interest in the project. By doing this, you get a lot a peoples attention as long as you have a very good marketing skill to accompany this, you even educate people who have zero knowledge about the use of technology in solving some problems or who do not know about the project. By doing social media campaign, you can even get more followers as long has you have a good way of presenting a project.

I think social networking is the key to advertising. It is possible that among your followers only a small fraction of people are interested in crypto, it has also increased the success of the project. and of course you earn money. The thing you trade is those who think you are spam will unfollow you

Many people are not believe in crypto world  that is why they dont want to see any advertisement about crypto, or anything about ICOs, so its normal they got bored to follow you in your twitter page .

I am very sympathetic to you, because I have also happened similar cases. Interaction with my facebook account and twitter is now very little, very little like, share or comment. Those who do not care about crypto turn their backs on me. The other followers I almost did not know. Social campaign is becoming more and more severe, there are too many new accounts. I do not know if I can maintain this status.

the same thing also happened to me, i think we arent alone because i believe almost all of us had already experienced this kind of problem. i notice most of the  time that my follower count is always fluctuating but overall i did not really care at all because i always follow new people more oftenly so that i can regain back what i loss. i suggest is to follow people that are also a crypto enthusiast or crypto related so that they wont be annoyed to your tweets and they cannot unfollow you in the long run.

Many companies are showing interest towards the social media advertising because they find huge potential in the social media promotions. That's why they are allocating huge funds to the social media promotions and at the same time, participants are showing interest towards the social media activity.

thats right. because social media these days are verry in demand due to the huge number of people who uses it on a daily basis . that is also the reason why crypto business men are now using social media promotion in order to promote their ico or any other crypto related business.


no mate. they are not allocating huge funds for just a social media campaign because social media campaigns are not a verry hard job to do. but instead they only allocate small to medium amount of cash in order to get started.

sig campaigns are the real one that has a huge reward allocation.

Yes, even if social media has greater number of user but still most of them doesn't know about crypto and tend to disregards the ICO that we promote and it is true that doing social media campaign is the easiest way to do and that's one of the reason why social media campaign has the lowest reward and being the easiest way then mostly it is the most participated part of a bounty campaign.
