I agree, since there are a lot of projects and competitors in the market, and most of all people are afraid to get on board.
We have only 2 competitors and they have a list of problems that we can solve. But we are going to challenge Linkedin in the future.

How do you even consider the prospects of this AskBrains project? The idea is interesting, but will they be able to interest investors in the IEO and raise the necessary money?
The idea of the AskBrains project is quite interesting. I hope the team will make a high-quality implementation of its platform. Then it will definitely be a success! I agree, since there are a lot of projects and competitors in the market, and most of all people are afraid to get on board. I registered in @earndotcom. This is one of the competitors. The use was very inconvenient and nothing worked fine. In addition, I found a lot of negative reviews. I hope the guys really will be able to eliminate all the shortcomings that their competitors have. The idea is very good, but no one has implemented it well yet. If the AskBrains team do it, then the platform will undoubtedly be in demand.

And why would these experts accept tokens for their services instead of money or more known cryptos like btc?
Experts will receive for their services the tokens of the AskBrains project, which they will later be able to exchange for the usual BTC or ETH. I don't think this will be a problem. If you can make such an exchange, then there is no problem at all. It is good that the team will allow such exchanges.

How many times do I have to say that you understand that experts don't receive tokens?! Experts earn money that can be transferred to a bank card or converted to Bitcoin. I wrote this already 2 times!

Can you give me some real world examples where you see the usability of this platform to work as intended? Because i am struggling to understand that in what case it would be harder for an individual or a team to consult an expert for a money outside of this platform.
And why would these experts accept tokens for their services instead of money or more known cryptos like btc?
Experts are investors, advisors, mentors and just professionals in their field. If you need one particular investor, who will replace him?? I already wrote about it earlier (I will copy here). "Most of the questions will be asked just to get an expert opinion. For example, I am a founder of the company. And I am sure that my project will be of interest to the investor Mr. X. But he doesn't respond to my messages. And this is obvious, if I found his contacts, then hundreds of others found and wrote. Therefore, I go to the AskBrains platform, pay and send a message. But now I know for sure that he will see my message and write his opinion about my project." There are people with whom it is almost impossible to contact in real life.Experts don't receive tokens, they receive money that can be transfered on a card or converted to Bitcoin. Moreover, the payment will most often be symbolic, so that users take the choice of an expert seriously. The expert will be able to send money to charity in 1 click (our experts are certainly wealthy people). If you really want to understand how our platform will be used, please read this introductory article. https://medium.com/ask-brains/introductory-article-about-askbrains-social-network-bf579be6391cA little confusion on your example, it basically shows a case where an investor-potential whom a developer can't get in touch with, to convince him to invest, are now within reach as the developer ask something to the said investor-potential using your platform, thus gain his interest? And what would the question be, then? "Hi, can you review my proposal?"

We don't guarantee that the investor will be interested in the project. But he will write his opinion and this will help the developer to improve his project/idea. We just give the opportunity to contact. And what users will talk about and what results they will get is their business. We only control the quality of the answer (it can be negative).

So they will have to pay to get an investor? Sounds a little counterproductive to me, especially as you also claimed yourself that the price won't be cheap. Plus, there's no guarantee that it will be the investor himself that read and give advise. I would imagine some of those expert investors run a lot of business and would probably have no time to read three to five emails asking them to read their proposal because of the payment (that's probably seems small for the investor, but big for a startup project). Afterall, that's why CEO and other businessman have PA.

Afterall, that's why CEO and other businessman have PA. We give the opportunity to contact. And this is incredibly important for new startups. We personally faced this when we started our work. And yes! We were ready to pay, if only the right person read our letter! Because we were sure that our project could be really interesting! But we received only the standard answer. The price will determine what expart want to receive from his services. Smart people are able to estimate their time. If the expert realizes that 3-5 emails a day is too much, he can put a cosmic price and will receive one email per year. Moreover, the expert has a few days to reply. Only account owner (not their helpers) can reply to messages. I can assume that you are not a founder of a startup ... so you cannot fully understand the importance of our idea. But each day we receiving proposals from investors, which ready to buy our tokens. It suggests that we are doing right things.

It sounds very optimistic. I like your morale! Linkedin is a very serious competitor. This is one of the most popular social networks in the world. Of course Linkedin is a very serious competitor. Maybe people will understand that we have more advantages in a few years.

I think that it is not necessary to fight AskBrains as a competitor. need to offer a product that will be different and have their own advantages.

They, too, were once a small startup. All companies go through ups and downs. Someday Linkedin will disappear from the market. Does anyone MySpace remember anyone now? )))

Everything is born and everything dies. Linkedin - not the most perfect platform. It has many problems and shortcomings. And this means that sooner or later a more perfect project will force Linkedin out of the market. Perhaps this will be our project. But we sensibly evaluate our strength and understand that a lot of work awaits us.

Competing with giants is a thankless task, because you can simply provide people with an alternative.

The problem is that Linkedin has a huge audience. It will be very difficult to convey information to the entire audience. But I am sure that those who want to study our project will understand that using AskBrains is much more convenient.

Therefore, this AskBrains project has all the chances to become a top platform for business consulting!

But I do not think that Linkedin is a direct competitor. Linkedin offer only professional social network. Project AskBrains is the intended place where partnerships and deals are made. Each expert will be able to add a user to "favourite list", and then they will be able to communicate like in general social networks (free and without restrictions). Expert can also remove the user from the "favourite list" and user will pay for communication again.

For me, linkedin is generally a separate social network and our project cannot compete with it, since it is completely fresh in the market.
