What will you do?

Knowing that Instagram is one of the largest social media platforms and hosts a lot of web2 and web3 communities, enthusiasts to promote NEAR PROTOCOL on Instagram and create more awareness to the Blockchain communities.

How will you do it?

To get started I would love to transform my existing page of about 12k+ followers and 4k+ accounts reached to promote NEAR PROTOCOL.

This would bring more engagement and attention to NEAR faster than expected if I’m to start a new page.

“We are also going to incorporate medium articles into our batch of content going out every month. With plans to put out 2 articles every week = 8 Articles per month”

Here’s a sample of the type of medium content to be shared.

As at the moment, the medium page we plan to use is still under construction and should be ready before the end of this month.

Strategy

Will be making strategic visual, video and audio and written content about the use cases of NEAR and important projects built on NEAR

  • Regular posts, stories and reels

  • elaborate on all events on NEAR

  • collaboration with communities on Instagram with good engagement.

-posts hijacking

  • IG live to discuss the current status of NEAR and projects built on NEAR.

hashtags to promote

#NEAR

#NEARNEWS

#NEARISNOW

#NEAR247

#NEARNFT

News and updates will be taken directly from NEAR PROTOCOL, NEAR FOUNDATION and AWESOME NEAR official handles.

Type of content to be created:

Visual graphics: News/ announcement, info-graphic, promotional, meme. Statistical, animated.

Video: Reviews, Educational, animated.

written: Articles ( Reviews, Educational )

Nice application. Had a few questions regarding your account and content quality:

-I checked your Reels but it seems they’re curated videos of AI animations or designs none made by you. Do you have examples of reels you’ve made before or similar examples of what your proposed Reels would look like?

-What does a ‘promotional animated video’ look like? What is the topic? Who does the voiceover, editing, sfx…?

-What is a ‘content creation contest monthly’?

-What specific KPIs related to NEAR are you tracking? (not related to your page)

-5,000 followers per month seems a lot of growth per month. How will you achieve that?

-Content posted on your page, the carousels and everything all seem curated and not original. That’s not a negative or positive thing but your proposal is about content ‘creation’ and I can’t see the content.

Clarifying those could help. Thx

thank you for your questions.

links are provided on the proposal on examples of videos to be created.

as stated on the proposal this would me a medium for content creators on instagram to create more memes and promotional videos for the ecosystem.

my targeted audience are web 2 users on intagram hence KPI includes
-wallets opened
-interaction with projects
my campaign will be focused on users interacting with products on NEAR

for the number of followers if you checked my RESUME you will see i work with a social media brand focused in promoting social media platforms organically hence achieving these numbers wont be a problem as the page will always grow and my duty is to manage and maintain my audience.

initially i use my page to promote and support content creation talent hence. and links are provided to previous work done by my team.

Hi there :wave:
To answer your last question, Content is tailored according to what is demanded. Mostly, we’re required to curate content about a specific project to share with the community and when we’re required to create content entirely, we tailor it accordingly. To shed more light on this, here’s a link to some old content created entirely, as I wrote the script myself and a couple which were curated to meet the requirements.

Thanks for the proposal. I can see via the resumes/CVs shared that your team is enthusiastic about the ecosystem.

In looking at the Alphaflex Instagram account, I don’t see the value in funding content creation on this channel. Here are my reasons:

  • Yes, there are 12K followers, but a review of the follower accounts turned up mostly accounts with no posts, just a few posts or what look like very similar image styles. It’s highly suggestive of bot/ghost accounts.
  • The engagement on your content is low vs. the follower number. The engagement that is there is a lot of spammy crypto commenters looking to shill.
  • There’s no cohesive message or brand around the account. There’s some existing crypto content and a lot of #NFT but nothing substantive or original.

When I’m evaluating proposals, I am looking to allocate funds to projects that can clearly demonstrate their ability to reach the KPIs outlined by the NEAR Foundation as per our guidelines. I don’t see that in this proposal.

I’d encourage you and your team to keep your eye out for bounties that we are hoping to post soon. They may offer an opportunity to get paid to create content around specific themes/campaigns.

Thanks!

Thank your@so608 for your observations

followers on the alphaflex page are real profiles and i will be sharing some screenshot showing the insights of few posts on the page as this shows a stats of my followers engages on the post also Insights showing the locations or all followers.





Insights showing the locations or all followers.


Have been on Instagram for a long time and I know getting engagements is quite difficult. and research shows that 10% engagement rate is expected from every page irrespective of your followers. Imagine cristiano on Instagram the most follow page but has a 2.56% engagement rate.

I believe the engagement on the alphaflex page fills in as it’s a personal page and strategies are being set to improve the current Engagement stats.

What the alphaflex page is all about.

1- support NFT curators, Artists promoting their work on the page.
2- Post News update on Blockchain, NFTs as stories daily.
3- account management to business pages.

Thanks for the encouragement and hope have been able to provide the answers you needed.

Hi @Alphaflex I do appreciate the answers. I can’t support funding for this proposal at this stage. We will be announcing a bounty during a Twitter AMA this Friday that I hope you will check out, and I encourage you to keep building.

Hey @Alphaflex
Thanks for your proposal. There are two main elements that I’m unable to support the proposal.

I agree with @so608 and @cryptocredit’s points. The consistency of branding is crucial to building a strong audience. I think it’s a little way out from being on the level we’re used to funding. Given how tight the budgets are these days, we’re not able to fund anywhere near as many projects as we once were.

Additionally, the nature of the project isn’t particularly strong when it comes to onboarding large numbers of new users and transactions.

Musicians and artists have a place in Web3, perhaps when the Creatives DAO is back up and running this would be a strong proposal for their team to review.
