Funding proposal: [Approved] NEAR Hub Marketing Support - September 2022

Hello @Dacha, Please forgive the delay with the report. We have been busy wrapping up the activities and building out ours and partner projects. Here is the report for our 9/22 Funding request.

Projects & Metrics:

  • Back-pay for interns assisting with social media content (USD $18/hr @ ~160 hrs between 4 interns)

    • Content created: 69 Tweets were created

  • Design and video content creation at NEARCON

  • NEAR Hub t-shirts and hoodie order for NEARCON:

    • 25 t-shirts
    • 5 Hoodies
    • Stickers

  • The NEAR Hub team was present at NEARcon and met with people from the community, partner projects and projects we are currently collaborating with. It was a great experience I would recommend to anyone. It allowed us to create new connections for future projects and distributed some merch to the scavenger hunt irl winners. We distributed the 25 t-shirts & merch, and used the 5 hoodies to promote the project.

  • 10+ projects participated in the scavenger hunt and prizes have been claimed

  • Onboarding Link drops for NEARCON and surrounding events

    • We had prepared linkdrops during NEARcon but most had wallets. So instead we used them to help with onboarding events that took place in NEAR Hub between Oct and Dec.
    • Sfcon22.nearhubonline.near which had 139 participants
      • We created a Haunted House NFT Gallery for the San Fransisco NFT Conference
    • animaze.nearhubonline.near
      • through the Animaze Animation Film festival we distributed NFTs to new users (19)
    • gemznft.nearhubonline.near 81 distributed
      • GemZ is a 2D and 3D generative project consisting of a limited edition 1,111 NFTs by Saint Kyriaki and TiEn. Ethics, morals, and values are at the heart of GemZ. In our lives, GemZ are the people we admire and respect. GemZ are our spiritual guides and mentors. GemZ are people who add a dash of whimsy and color to everyday life. GemZ is the stuff of our dreams and aspirations. GemZ is what we’d like to have in our back pocket to keep us safe and sacred, playful, and fun. A lot of brands, projects, and things that we see in the world are the work of GemZ. They don’t get the notoriety and the percentages. Our project honors them and gives them acclamation. They’ve been swept under the rug, and no one seems to notice. Like a diamond tucked away in a pile of soil , GemZ are the undiscovered treasures. The core of the brand is provided by these artists that on the other hand, are often shunned and not given the attention they deserve. In many cases, artists feel that they are not given a fair share of the profits, are overlooked, and are not compensated in a way that is equitable. GemZ is all about honouring one’s talents and breaking the stigma of getting the art from the talent and sweeping them under the rug. GemZ is a statement. It is our mission to make the GemZ more widely known, heard, and seen.
