Thanks for that comprehensive update on how things have evolved over the last couple of days. I must say you, alongside other members of the project ops team have delivered nothing short of excellent work .
About this, I don’t know how feasible it would be to retweet tweets from all projects building on NEAR?
Could ve something to discuss with the Marketing Team / Advisors ? @David_NEAR
If there is the possibility for a form to be filled with the tweet, and then the team decide if retweets or not.
Hey guys, my Name is Kemal and I’m in charge of NFT and Gaming projects, but also help projects in other categories. As of today, I am in contact with 62 projects in the NEAR ecosystem.
We have decided as a team to share weekly reports under this thread, beginning with this monthly report.
I am in contact with 62 projects in total.
From 10/02 to 10/03 I’ve worked 220 hours (10 hours/5 days per week)
I have approx. 3-5 meetings per day.
I support ~15 users per day

Missing communication from the Grant-Team about the grant process.
Shutting down the Marketing Activation program for the Project Ops team.
Missing communication channels (Twitter, Medium) to announce partnerships, events or projects that have a higher Tier.
Decentralization is important for a blockchain to be secure and scalable. For an enterprise, however, it is not. It complicates and sometimes even blocks our work, as it takes days, sometimes even weeks, to find a contact person and get feedback from them.
Ideas / Proposals:
The Marketing Activation Funnel was, in my opinion, not only one of the best ideas I have seen in the marketing space but also one of the biggest advantages we had as a Layer 1 project over other blockchains. By supporting the projects in our ecosystem with content creation and reach, we supported the whole NEAR ecosystem. So I would like to propose to reactivate the Marketing Activation Program.
We need an organizational structure with contacts from every department and hierarchy so that we can contact about certain issues. I think it is also important to have at least one person from every department to whom we can escalate if things are not going well.
It shouldn’t be for every project, but at least for projects with a high Tier status. I am in contact with projects with millions $ of funding, building wonderful products, and gaining a lot of traction, but getting no mention from NEAR. We have to find a solution for that.
Howdyy , so my name is Larry and I were dedicated to help Defi projects on the NEAR/Aurora ecosystem. So far, I have contacted about 20 projects under these categories.
And as a moderators, I have achieved some of these stats so far:
178 hours of work from 10/02 to 10/03
Support for 10-15 users per day
8 hours/ day per week
Moderation and support mostly on Telegram channel
And down here is a table showing the main projects that I assisted the last month:

Difficulties
Method for the approach of Project Ops team so far is us DM projects on the project community channel. Although this procedure is easy to be done, but not that scalable as the more projects come to NEAR/Aurora the harder it get for us to reach out
Missing communication from the Grant-Team about the grant process.
Shutting down the Marketing Activation program for the Project Ops team.
Proposal:
Bring back the Marketing Activation program - since support in terms of marketing from the NEAR Protocol can be a huge upside for projects.
Composing a framework for further collaboration with Proximity/Aurora/NEAR Grant
Permission to access and perform further support behind this typeform for projects onboarding: Get your idea built on NEAR - as we can help sort out the tier and demands/requests before handling/redirect them to the right resource and we would be more than happy to support
Thanks @FritzWorm for the generous help. The name of my project is Atocha Protocol, which is also an appchain that will be launched on Octopus Network. Once we finalized our TGE and IDO details, we can collaborate in a more elaborate manner like building community awareness, AMA with different communities, and also the building of the player base on our Puzzle Game.
Atocha Protocol under Gaming saying hi We will be launching our mainnet on Octopus Network soon and would love to get connected with you to work on the marketing part. You can hit me up on TG (Handle: @worldmod7).
