Not a "business" again (I guess, even tho some organizations behave like businesses or companies) but I think this sector is also very important; Because it's basically for doing good things with Bitcoin... And maybe this will get the whole topic into a direction that lets us forget part of all the 'illegal' stuff Bitcoin is still associated with (and some of this image will stay there forever as Bitcoin still is without a doubt - let's just speak the truth here - a tool or opportunity for fraud, ponzi, money laundering and stuff)... What I mean ist; Charity, crowd-funding, personal support of people in need and so on... So it's not a business or at least it shouldn't be, but well - I pesronally rather focus on that one, because that is what I feel is right for me

The good thing with this is that these projects or organizations can often be found on social media or on the webs in general - especially if they want to fund something or if they want to reach out for a bigger 'audience'... So it's not that difficult to contact them in first place (like it might be the case with mainly local business & shops, having their established market, maybe don't even remotely thinking of expanding or maybe don't even have a homepage yet)...

Example -> floodings in Slovenia earlier this year, via facebook;



My credo doing so; Always be positive and friendly - don't force it on anybody; Tell them why it is a good option - and show them how fast it works (the blockchain is the best proof)!

I have one or two other examples I guess (with bands and crowd-funding e.g.) but I have to dig out the screenshots first...

I randomly chose giveBTCpls as my winner from page 2: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=699803.msg8016519#msg8016519

giveBTCpls, apparently you don't live in the US but I'm still willing to send you a cap if the cost of shipping isn't too high. PM me so we can work something out.

I havent been around for days so I forgot about this. I don't really understand, whats the price? I accept BTC 

[whitegrey]

Hmm, I can't believe nobody is jumping on...
Come on guy's - it's not that hard to endorse Bitcoin!

Here's my latest try to convince somebody to jump onto Bitcoin (for receiving donations);


Hope she'll get into it!

[whitegrey]

In the meantime I've received mail from Oregon!
Big thanks goes out to www.HoneyBadgerOfMoney.com



So this is totally real, even with international shipping!
I hope some more people will promote BTC now and post their attempts and success-stories here now

[MakeBelieve]

I'm surprised with some of the success stories we are hearing from something which should of been done a long time ago good job guys I haven't had any success yet though the most I've heard is "we are considering our options".

In my neighbourhood there are about 1000 small businesses that would love to claim independence from the €uro and from their banks who are seen as tools of the main government (the region is also trying to gain independence for years ; its Catalunya in Spain).
Anyway, I'm positive my area could be a micro btc commerce hub where most of those businesses would be up for adoption. I was thinking of printing leaflets and dropping them into each place door to door over the course of few weeks. Trouble is i cant afford to print anything like that, and most business owners would not put the effort in to doing their own research if they just got an email with a link tbh, business here is best done face to face and explaining it every time would take forever, id need to be able to leave reading material.

Is imagine btc would thrive in places seeking independence,  like Catalunya , Scotland, tibet, chechnya, bask, wales, tamil, kurdistan...

Anyway, if anyone is interested in sponsoring this venture is be happy to post results here, or if anyone is in the Gracia area of Barcelona and want to talk about this idea let me know!
