This proposal may be more suitable for the creatives DAO.

In its current form, I do not support it. There isn’t a strong enough connection between the project, event, and helping NEAR grow to 1 Billion users.

hi @satojandro we could scrap the quoted texts out, but 150 creatives are certified to the event,

Radio advert is effective here, and will expose people to knowing more about NEAR which we will definitely convey them,

buy of NFTs will encourage more attendants on whats going on with NEAR.

our community and instagram has got about 4000 memebers and followership.

kindly help us see into this proposal, at the end of all we will show you result of how it works.

thank you so much [@marketingdao-council](https://gov.near.org/groups/marketingdao-council)

Unfortunately, you will not be able to run ads across any of those platforms promoting NFTs or NFT projects.

Therefore, I will not be supporting this project for funding.

Thanks for the proposal. While I am a big fan of joining music and creatives with NEAR, I am not able to support this proposal in its current form. Here are a few reasons why:

- As @klint pointed out, the social platforms in the proposal have a policy against running NFT/crypto ads. So that part of the proposal is not fundable.
- I do not fully understand the strategy of buying your event participants’ NFTs in the way that you are outlining. I would rather support projects that are marketing their events in order to bring new people into the NEAR ecosystem so that the new people buy the NFTs, not the store that is selling them. Maybe I am misunderstanding that strategically, but it seems to me that true fans should buy the NFTs, not the merchant that is selling them?
- Overall, without the marketing component clearly stated, this seems like a better fit for the Creatives DAO because it is a creative music project and the funding would primarily go to supporting creatives through prizes.
