A frequent question we get from the bounty campaign participants is when exactly the Smart Valley ICO will take place.
Here's the answer: the ICO is set for February - March 2018; you will receive your tokens once it's complete.

"How can I get my project scored? How much does it cost?
10 If you would like to get your project scored by our experts, you will need to submit an application.
A project can pay for scoring using one of three ways:
1. For free
· Project founders can pay for the scoring using the funds from the SMART Valley Financial Aid Center; to receive financial aid, they have to apply for it;
· The application is assessed by SVT holders (1 SVT token gives one vote). If after one week the application gathers over 70% positive votes, the project receives the necessary funds, but in return the project founders will have to transfer – at once or at a later date – an amount of their project tokens that equals five times the scoring fee;

· The project tokens transferred to repay the financial assistance will be made available for purchase by SVT token holders.
2. With a discount
· Holders of SVT tokens are entitled to discounts on various services on the platform, including scoring.
· The discount starts at 25% and is calculated dynamically (you can find more details in the Token section of our White Paper);
3. Payment in full using SVT tokens
· The project has the option of paying the full scoring fee with SVT tokens, thus becoming a member of the SMART Valley ecosystem."

Those 5 projects that are scoring. Who in what way paid for it? Exactly not the first way, because this system does not work as I understood.

· The project tokens transferred to repay the financial assistance will be made available for purchase by SVT token holders.What does it mean?

So what? I was on this site and I did not find on it the answers to my questions, so I asked them here... can anybody help?

I see that the amount of collected funds is growing steadily. Excellent result, it means it will be possible to conduct a powerful advertising campaign on ICO.

Do you think a lot of spending on advertising is necessary when the product is already running and successfully held presale?

Perhaps at the moment the project has been invested by a "close" circle of investors. Those people who either know it from the inside or somehow interact with the developers are so confident in them. To bring information to a wider range of investors, ICO is necessary.

Emphasis on advertisement has always been a crucial element in any project, whether or not they are recording successive victories.
1. It helps with lasting impression of their brand.
2. It keeps them on top of their game and ensures they meet with public expectations.

However, the intensity can vary, as it depends on the economic ideology of the project.

I think he means that such a project is already most attractive in our time. Few projects have so many pluses. MVP, collected soft cap, etc.
 

I agree, the ICO system has evolved, an many who can't up with newer standards (unofficial), find it hard even with intense advertisement.

[vitalikexpert]

you have a good project team, why did not you mention it in your white paper? sort like by all the canons they should be there

marketing - as we know, progress driver! But the main thing is to monitor the effectiveness of each channel and delete not relevant, otherwise the budget for marketing is very easy and quickly go away!

It's hard to say unequivocally. It depends not only on the project itself but also on external circumstances. The fact is that for example a social network with a small number of participants will be of little interest to anyone.

I agree, but not all projects require a huge infrastructure. In many cases, the phased development is quite acceptable.

The realities are that whoever grabs a large market share now and that will have a big profit then, even when profitability falls.

you are right but not completely!
it's just not always the way the market works, it's often important to find your small but highly profitable product and then everything in your wear will be fine!

I agree. But I have the experience of real business. Sometimes it is better to have greater profitability on small volumes than lower profitability on large volumes.

that's it!
I just talk about this and tell our friend MR "Sartrute".
the most important thing in business is the net profit, and the volume is not so important

I will not agree about "all" projects.
The need for wide marketing varies greatly. And sometimes advertising can be even harmful.
The Smart Valley project certainly needs good advertising, because now the market is developing rapidly and it is necessary to capture the market share. But you should remember about your abilities. If you take on too large a volume of work and do not perform it, then this will affect the project negatively.

I think you are correct, some projects do extravagant advertising and make their product redundant. I would suggest also that they do a marketing and advertising survey to find out which publicity channel will be most effective in bringing out the glare of their project.

Correctly stated. The ICO community is still undergoing it's neonatal transformations. For any project to remain relevant in the future is largely dependent on their role play in marketing and publicity campaign.
