I have to disagree with the people who think we need another exchange at the moment. This coin and project is still very new and the volume and trading is very natural on ccex. If we moved onto bittrex the bots would be going nuts and I think most of the volume would be faked. I think right now the best place for floz is ccex but when floz is older and more mature then I think we'll really need to focus on getting listed @ poloniex.
Just my 0.2 FLOZ.
I guess you are right. It's still soon.
Thinking how the coin could go forward, I made a little search about guerilla marketing and found ;
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guerrilla_marketingGuerrilla marketing is an advertisement strategy concept designed for small businesses to promote their products or services in an unconventional way with little budget to spend. This involves high energy and imagination focusing on grasping the attention of the public in more personal and memorable level. Some large companies use unconventional advertisement techniques, proclaiming to be guerrilla marketing but those companies will have larger budget and the brand is already visible. The main point of guerrilla marketing is that the activities are done exclusively on the streets or other public places, such as shopping centers, parks or beaches with maximum people access so as to attract a bigger audience.
Unlike typical public marketing campaigns that utilize billboards, guerrilla marketing involves the application of multiple techniques and practices in order to establish direct contact with the customers. One of the goals of this interaction is to cause an emotional reaction in the clients and the final goal of marketing is to get people to remember brands in a different way than they are used to . The technique involves from flyer distribution in public spaces to creating an operation at major event or festival mostly without directly connecting to the event but using the opportunity. The challenge with any guerrilla marketing campaign is to find the correct place and time to do the operation without getting involved in legal issues.
Ambient marketingAmbient communication is a complex form of corporate communication that uses elements of the environment, including nearly every available physical surface, to convey messages that elicit customer engagement. It is a compile of intelligence, flexibility and effective use of the atmosphere.
Ambush marketingAmbush marketing is a form of associative marketing, utilized by an organization to capitalize upon the awareness, attention, goodwill, and other benefits, generated by having an association with an event or property, without that organization having an official or direct connection to that event or property. Essentially, a company or a product seeks to ride on the publicity value of a major event without having contributed to the financing of the event through sponsorship.
It is typically seen at major events where rivals of official sponsors use creative and sometimes covert tactics to build an association with the event and increase awareness for their brands. For example, Nike during the 2012 London Olympics, Nike created ‘find your Greatness’ spots where they featured athletes from several locations called London (but without showing the real London or referring to the Olympic games) which helped in building a strong association between London Olympics and Nike.
Stealth marketingStealth marketing is a deliberate act of entering, operating in, or exiting a market in a furtive, secretive or imperceptible manner, or an attempt to do so. People get involved with the product without them actually knowing that they are the part of advertisement campaign. This needs to be implemented with uttermost covertness because if the participants become aware of the campaign, it will have a negative effect on the brand resulting in ethical doubts about its use.
Viral marketingViral marketing describes any strategy that encourages individuals to pass on a marketing message to others, creating the potential for exponential growth in the message’s exposure and influence. Like viruses, such strategies take advantage of rapid multiplication to explode the message to thousands, to millions. Off the Internet, viral marketing has been referred to as “word-of-mouth,” “
creating a buzz,” “leveraging the media,” “network marketing.” But on the Internet, for better or worse, it’s called “viral marketing.”[8]
Street marketingAccording to Marcel Saucet and Bernard Cova, street marketing can be used as a general term encompassing six principal types of activities:
Distribution of flyers or productsThis activity is more traditional and the most common form of street marketing employed by brands.
Product animationsThis form of operation consists of personalizing a high-traffic space using brand imagery. The idea is to create a micro-universe in order to promote a new product or service.
Human animationsThe goal of such actions is to create a space in which the brand’s message is communicated through human activity.
Road showsThis form of mobile presentation is based on the development of means of transport: Taxi, bike, Segway, etc.
Uncovered actionsThese activities involve the customization of street elements.
Event actionsThese activities take the form of spectacles, such as flash mobs or contests. The idea is to promote a product, service or brand value through organization of a public event.
Presence marketingThis is a guerrilla marketing type that goes along the same lines as ambient marketing. Products are to maintain a constant presence through product placements, street ads, stalls at local festivals and markets.
Grassroots marketingGrassroots campaigns focus on gaining customers one-by-one rather than a large portion of consumers, Building relationships, and enhancing a firm's reputation and popularity.
So..from my opinion, basically most of the work done in guerilla marketing are done in the ''streets''.
We are into crypto, so I guess the ''streets'' could be Internet in general.
From the differents types of available marketing types, I think Floz coin could use a mix of Ambient, Viral and Grassroot marketing.
The weed energy drink and inwallet game will help greatly to bring the coin more viral to ease the awareness around of the Ambient and Grassroot marketing.
Thus far, competition is hard and there is a lot ( too much ) other crypto coins available, but nothing impossible.
Making a website, blogs, getting some audiences will sure help. If anyone has some internet skills, Floz coin can be a good starting opportunity.
Thunderclap could be used before the release of the ingame wallets, market or energy drinks. ;
