Dear committee of the contest,
Here is another bunch of ideas I would like to offer:
•
Blog for personal experiences for EMC investors Let customers share their personal stories why do they prefer in Emercoin rather than other coins - open up a blog for this. Let them be very personal here. How did they get in touch with crypto. How old were? What was their first coin? Their first mining experience, what is their preferred hardware for mining? How did they get in touch with Emercoin? Why did they „upgrade“ from for example Litecoin to Emercoin. And why are they sticking to it? Are they planning to be invested longer? Why?
This blog will be seen some sort of guide for newbies. Instead of going the same path they can just take the suggested shortcut and start directly start with Emercoin or switch over soon instead of testing out a lot of coins and feeling lost.
•
Investors videos - shared in social media Give you clients a tool to make an ad for you (share the vid, campaign on Instagram and Vine)
•
Sponsorship of the XXL tetris on a huge building 
Contact these students from the Kiel University in Germany and ask to be a sponsor for their mega sized tetris on a huge building.
- Please have a look at this article on their XXL tetris project:
http://www.ew.com/article/2016/03/31/xxl-tetris•
Tap into nostalgia and present the evolution of blocks in a videoInstead of sponsoring these students shoot a video with them. Record the tetris game and then display your coin on the building. Call your clip the „
evolution of blocks“ or „
the evolution of blocks to blockchains“ or „
we always loved to create blockchains“
o With this idea you will receive the attention of so many pc/videogamers/nerds/IT/retro/blockchain-enthusiasts .. if it is made in cool fashion this video could goes viral not only in the crypto world! So it could even attract a lot people from outside the crypto landscape.
o It will carry messages like future, future value, progress, fun, humor, creative, connected community (remember: the tetris is beeing played on the front of a huge house)
I live in Germany so I could work with very creative people who are talented, experienced in shooting clips for companies (worked for example for MT4) over here to realize such a video and I could also try to get in touch with the students of the XXL tetris project.
Cost & Value: investment & implementation costs will be small comparing it with high great potential & high probability of success.
If the video goes viral the potential is enormous. If does not go viral, as this that cannot be forced, you will still have a video with a great circulation and a great message.
•

•
Create profile on the Russian social media platform VKontakte •
Create a Dynamic Roadmap at Trello•
Upside-down funnel: let you existing investors feel like they're part of an exclusive club, give them something extra, make them feel like VIPs: • For example by
hosting free events •
Have a sell – convince sellers of products/service on the internet who sells goods/services for Bitcoin/Etherum/Blackcoin/Emercoin etc.
to reduce the price (for example 20%) if client chooses to buy in Emercoin. In return ask them what the Emercoin community/your experts can to for him for example webpage improvements, design, getting in touch with your network, promotions of his offering, adding a link to the online store in your newsletter/your a webpage/going public with "X" is a partner of ours.
•
Build some strong partners: Very powerful would be if to set a deal
big exchange reduces it’s trading costs for Emercoin significantly so that in terms of transactions costs Emercoin will stick out from the rest -> Low transactions costs for trading vs. higher transactions costs for other coins. That could higher trading volume and interest significantly. In return - same as above: Ask the partner exchange what your big community could do for him in return besides from $/BTC. How could your experts help the provider of the exchange to develop/to grow. Swap expertise. The exchange partner will also be able to provide with other advices how to be able to stick on his/and in general on an exchange platform.
• Let your country representatives
organize meetings for local investorsThis can be fun events (brunching together on a Sunday, meeting at a lake etc.), solely focused on Emercoin, crypto content in general, development etc.
• One
free drink on a day XX.XX.2016 in a couple of capital cities or cities of interest
in "partner bars" or at community meetings for investors who have a Emercoin wallet on their smartphone. This could be organized by your country representatives. These partner bars could turn into magnets of crypto fans.
• Create a Emercoin Plus webpage in which only Emercoin investores can login to To make sure only Investors can join you could use a similar process of opening an account at Paypal. To proof the identity a tiny amount of EMC could be spent for the registration.
List exclusive material here or make it very simple and just
offer information in advance (a couple days)
before offering it to the public. This will truly give the users the feeling of a VIP status and that experience will bind them to Emercoin.
• Host educational live webinars with your experts on different topics solely inviting investors. Register on GoToWebinar and offer a webinar calendar with 1 two 2 events each week. With a host and guests also from external guests outside of the Emercoin project. For example get someone from Microsoft Azure to join one session for informations and Q/A.
• Create a promotions "Evolution of technology" series banners. Create them in a fun way. For example you could create banners like this:
Imagine a series of images which show a comparison of
then and now in order to show the progresses that have been made in technology.
Then image of an old mobile phone ->
Now image of a new smartphone
Then image of old huge TV ->
Now image of a new flat TV
Then image of US-Dollar note ->
Now image of your coin
OR
Then image of BTC ->
Now image of EMC
In general
Then image of a bunch of cryptocurrencies ->
Now image of cryptocurrency 2.0 EMC
Or to take the example from above:
Tetris. Then buiding „blockchains“ was solely fun.
EMC. Now building blockchains creates a value.
