[Closed] NEAR Stars Guild ⭐ next international month influencers cycle

It’s a no for me.
This proposal seems have really turned into a challenging case to review given how much has spilled into the comments. Yes there is a challenge to do discovery, outreach, and manage the content of these influencers. However, given the size and reach of the influencers, I agree that the pricing is still a bit high for my liking. Nobody is asking anyone to work for free but the level of reach and work involved doesn’t merit the price points being asked.

In the future, it’s helpful to get something a little more structured together and potentially resubmit.

Hey @Klint,

Can you drop some tangible tips for amending this to something more appealing?

I’m going to jump in here because I’m not sure that you are aware of this DACHA but most of these messages from Youtube personalities and promoters are fake. You pay them to produce a video or promote your project and they run off with the money.

I contacted directly with YouTube influencers from the list. But it’s a good point work together with community to find our best bloggers, not fake entities .

About Agent fee of 200 USD. It will remain as it is. I value work of my teammembers and so the community of NEAR should.

Before on previous proposals everyone was chill about that.

Dear @marketingdao-council think this proposal is more than discussed.
Am bringing it to Astro DAO for voting.

Please do not submit it to Astro before it is approved, as per our guide:

Hey, this part says not to post in Astro until approved

Got it!
So waitin’ for @marketingdao-council to approve it or deny.

Hey @marketingdao-council
Have added Lite Lidger back, since i see that @JThompson123 proposal on Marketing DAO seems to be downvoted.
And added https://rubic.exchange/ as one of additional topics for youtubers.

@David_NEAR @cryptocredit @jcpacion let me know if this proposal would be approved and can be sent to DAO for voting.
@Dacha rejects, still he/she can downvote it on DAO voting.

Generally, Stars Guild does some awesome legwork in the ecosystem.

That said, I’m not a marketing professional so would defer to @Klint and/or @so608 for advice on how this can be improved.


On another note, are you working directly with the projects you’ve outlined in the original proposal? Or have you chosen them yourself?

My experience of being in they tg group

  • my post was deleted, when Fustao team member came to the group and asked help with promotion from the project budget , I proposed choose any blogger from Stars guild and pay directly to a YouTuber .
    So, weird. Probably, they wanna get rewards from the project and Marketing DAO? Great example of the same collaboration
  • overall Tg group is still inactive

  • couldn’t find any collaborations with Russian, Indian or any other Gulids.

  • I within 15 minutes reduced YouTuber rewards on $200

I will approve it, as soon as they start work with community.

@David_NEAR asked for additional input from the marketing advisors about improving this proposal. My goal with this comment is to suggest a few simple things that I think would improve this proposal.

This proposal has a LOT of information, and there has been a lot of debate about various aspects of it. I think it is fair to argue that it is impossible to know how some of these videos will perform until they are produced – it is somewhat of an experiment. If this proposal is approved, then my advice to the MarketingDAO council is to closely review the performance of the marketing activities here before the next funding cycle.

As for specific improvements to the proposal, here is what @Zhunda outlined for the total budget in the proposal:

For YouTubers, I would like to see the proposal include:

  • The call to action you are going to have for each video. Sure, the videos will mention/promote/inform about Near, but what will the video and/or description do to capture those viewers and encourage them to become members of the Near community? I want to see a specific call to action for the videos mentioned in the proposal and then statistics/numbers reported in a reasonable time period after the videos have been published.
  • For Agent Bounties, I understand how much work it is to make the deals with the YouTubers. I take no issue with that. What would make this more compelling to me is if you also proposed to create a “database” or spreadsheet or list of YouTubers and their costs and make it public so that members of the Near community have this information. That is a huge benefit to the community.
  • For Administration costs, I also understand that admin costs are necessary. To make the proposal stronger, I want to see a proposal for how much activity you plan to do on your promotional channels. Instead of “takes care of our Telegram,” for example, I want to see “has a daily presence on our Telegram” and/or “Will post 10 times on Twitter for each video over a 4-week period.” I don’t aim to tell you what amount or posting or how many times etc are right, you’re the expert there. But I think the MarketingDAO should know what you plan to do on those fronts before funding the proposal.

@Dacha with due respect I deleted your messages it was full of sarcasm and some how stopping Stars Guild from possibly collaborating with upcoming projects …
The NF wants to see how Stars Guild can collaborate and help other project
We were ready to help and you are coming with these

“Elliot Mayer:
Good morning Danny. You have two ambassadors from Near Community. One of them - Council at Near degens shilling team. I believe he can help you with promotion”

“Elliot Mayer:
Good morning. Fustao can choose any YouTuber from Statr’s guild list and pay them for promotion”

Indirectly pushing Stars Guild from making an impact/helping other communities
This shows lack of professionalism
Coming to Stars Guild to publish that

Told @Zhunda to caution you on this attitude or you will be banned from the Group

Secondly I don’t understand what you mean by inactive
I keep the group running everyday
We have bout 65 members
@Zhunda is making pools
Trying to see how to give everyone in the community a chance
And all you do is come up with controversial
Attitude in the official Telegram Group of Stars Guild

I wanted to call you out for your attitude am glad You made this post

Hey David, half was chosen by team.
Another half, the one that we will concentrate this time, will be NEAR projects that contactaed us directly. Aim is to give more visibility to newly established projects:

https://www.fusotao.org
From two projects waiting for details.
Idk, some are really massive projects so two vids can be easily given.
David, if you got any projcet on your mind worth shown up, please share. ))
