Nxt marketing & promotion :: Nxt forum now moved to nxtforums.org

Eigentümlich frei is a libertarian monthly print magazine , with a circulation of about 6,000 copies. The online edition ( www.ef -magazin.de ) is clicked by 300,000 readers a month.
Readers are especially educated men younger to middle-aged , who are followers of the Austrian Economics and the current money system are critical .
I find an interesting target group for Nxt .
The media data can be found here: http://ef-magazin.de/media/assets/EF_Mediadaten_kompakt.pdf

How should the marketing look like? I would prefer the online edition and indeed a large banner 200x400 pixels. Take a look here right how it looks like : http://www.ef-magazin.de/

Cost: To start times 1 month I would propose . This will cost € 386.75 inclusive of VAT
In addition, we would have a nice set of meaningful banner in 200x400 pixel format (ie portrait) Unfortunately, I 'm not good in such things, can somebode help out her? Cax?

How to finance : I try to get the Nxt marketing budget once. We need about 9200 Nxt . I would be great to get, 10.000 Nxt , so the one who created the banner ,
also gets something .

What is your opinion about this?

salsacz: If I get green lights from the marketing fund I would start here and manage everything. Just tell we if you would be fine to donate 10k of the Nxt Marketing found for this!

I think it would be worth also trying to get an article on the online edition. This would probably have greater impact than paid advertising. Especially if we wait until we have a clear idea about implementing ZeroCash (as NxtCash) on Nxt.

We have our first small online tournament up. It starts saturday and is a chess tournament.
See: http://www.freechess.org/Events/NXT/

I've written a small article on it, which anyone can publish.
It also would be cool, if someone translated it to russian and spanish.

@salsacz: your business cards look great as all your artwork!

Whew, from a terribly busy Frankfurter Messe I want to let you people know that my developer has taken up my question for a Nxt payment module a level higher than I anticipated.

Because he basically saw no way to garantuee safety in a simple way he got a friend involved who has a hosting company, and this person is now also interested.

They now have the plan to set up some kind of dedicated server system (tecnical details elude me after a day of building our booth, but I will elaborate when less tired) to facilitate Nxt payments. They are also willing to develop the modules to work with it.

Basically all customer actions are dealt with via their own client, the server basically is meant to report to the shopkeepers if payments have been done and are confirmed.

As I say, I'm too tired at the moment to be totally coherent, but it looks great and I am chuffed that more developers after only a weekend of digging throught the wiki are very interested.

Looks like we will have some kind of payment system that can be easily used up fairly soon (no ETA though, embryo stage).

media..

http://www.maxkeiser.com/2014/02/maxcoin-the-next-altcoin-to-hit-20-million/

The MaxCoin reddit has 30 subscribers, that may not sound impressive, but consider that NXT coin only has 52 subscribers but commands a market cap over $60 million and you start to see why I am excited.

+ not sure if this is new, but now you can use this "app":

Media is giving thukfman far too much credit.

It's only media in the sense that it's signs broadcast over a medium

Musical farts can be described like that, too.

great!
I am not a native english speaker and appreciate your changes.
Can I reuse your version?

It would be really nice to have it in spanish and russian also.

[apenzl]

Can I reuse your version?

Yes.

I am not a native english speaker and appreciate your changes.

Neither am I. Proofreading is welcome, anyone!

Someone should build a Nxt equivalent of this:

Hey guys...I just if we could get this for NXT, that would be the kickstart...

salsacz: If I get green lights from the marketing fund I would start here and manage everything. Just tell we if you would be fine to donate 10k of the Nxt Marketing found for this!

the topic should be based on:

internet vs. decentralized DNS in Nxt
= internet controlled by government vs. Kim Dotcom + Assange + Snowden's free noncensorable internet data and communication

you can even use a picture of the gevernment representative vs. our heros: Snowden and Assange
this focus on decentralized Nxt can be implemented into the banner. IF the banner was based on free web, it could be worth it.

The picture should be a response on this text:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/11/11/4639-edward-snowden-das-ende-des-internets

You could try to ask the german community, if they could write the article about Nxt too, also as a response on this text:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/11/11/4639-edward-snowden-das-ende-des-internets
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/12/16/4759-bitcoins-echte-alternative-oder-kontrollierte-opposition-aus-der-puppenkiste-der-wall-street-cia-und-nsa

if not, than at least similar to:
http://ef-magazin.de/2013/07/01/4322-bitcoin-als-vertrauenswuerdiges-geld-geschaetzt

Such articles would mean also an additional bounty

So you start with the banner or article texts and if you "deliver"something, we can try to get it to the "Eigentümlich frei" and even other Magazines, even in other languages.

Good job

The reddit team of /r/Nxt is asking for a donation regarding a reddit.com marketing campaign.

Can someone who is responsible for this PM me?

Salsacz: Over promo stuff for the conference:
Do you want some stickers, for example:


I can send a slightly tidied up, full size version in a few hours. You could then get it printed up locally for the conf.
People love free stuff, and stickers always end up in a nice visible spot. Very cheap, very effective at spreading the word.

How's admiral.fu and the t-shirts coming on?

Thank you Sir. We do what we can to bring Nxt to the next level. It´s not so easy to write an article there. But I guess with a Banner we could open the door somehow, that I can write something over Altcoins with some warm words for Nxt (I don´t always write articles for print magazines, but when I do I write in "eigentümlich frei")

Good night!
