Hi @Zhunda
I am thinking to make a video here:
I’ve checked some others also but they asking +5000$
I am also in contact with some Twitter influencers Like:
https://twitter.com/BTC_USDT_LTC?t=GtO79RvDIaj-2qvRAGsGWg&s=09
https://twitter.com/KriptoDayii?t=D1SQZXogDh3R4s7Bu4lSOQ&s=09
For now I don’t need any help beside of getting the budget for Turkish DAO 
Kripto Emre rocks!
Best of luck Cizi, wish you to get the funding fast and get whole event passed well. ))
@jcatnear sorry created this one accidental SputnikDAO
please reject it…
the turkey.sputnikdao.near is the correct one
Hey!
Please submit future proposals, and resubmit the existing, to the Astro DAO Platform. You can find the link here.
Additionally, please wait for the proposal to be moved to Approved before submitting requests to the DAO. Thanks a million! 
cc @marketingdao-council - any further thoughts before we approve/amend?
Hi @cizi31 your Near Turkey Blockchain Academy looks great project. When do you expect this to be launched?
i would suggest that you separate the education and development - which is part of the Academy project, and focus this proposal on the social media tasks.
It looks like you have lined up some good influencers… but maybe you need to take another look at the funding amount requested.
It is best to start with a small team and show that you can perform.
Hi @David_NEAR
ah ok noted, sorry for that will take care next time!
I just submitted the proposal to the Astro DAO Platform https://app.astrodao.com/dao/marketing.sputnik-dao.near?proposal=marketing.sputnik-dao.near-14
@cryptocredit
Thank you for your feedback!
We are planning to do the Blockchain Academy in the next 2 months. We are expecting about 500-1000 students from Turkey to participate in our event. Today evening, I have a meeting with Sherif from Education Team and our Devs/Educators from Turkey about next steps, will let you updated about that.
If we come back to the social media tasks, I sent a report about what we did in Sept/Oct here Near Turkey September / October 2021 report
We started small and didn’t only focus on the Telegram group / Twitter / Website articles. We are also continuesly looking for Developers and Educators from Turkey that also takes a lot time to let them join us. In the next weeks we are aiming to have more influencers onboard.
We can start with the small ones as you said, they are asking about 500$ each YT video and 100-300$ for Twitter flood with 3 tweets. I am checking their analytics and references also if it’s worth or not. Aiming only to prepare good and cheap ones with high value.
If we come back to the Telegram group, as our aim is to have 3-5K members there, we have to increase admins as well, for the Twitter account Near Turkey we need to do promotions / contests to increase the activity there.
I understand it looks like a huge amount but we are expecting a lot in the next weeks and with the Blockchain Academy, we are aiming to have more developers and educators in our community also, this will help us to participate in NEAR grant projects next year.
I hope I could shortly explain about our next steps and targets.
We can also prepare a meeting in the next time to get to know each other.
Thank you in advance!
@David_NEAR btw shall I also create a new Turkey DAO in the astrodao platform?
Because we only have a Turkish DAO in the sputnikdao currently
Absolutely, you can find a guide to setting up a DAO on Astro here.
Let me know if you need any assistance 
Just to add another $0.02 to this proposal:
I think 5 admins for a community of 1800 might be a little overkill, what do you think?
with admins I meant also editors for the website articles and community admins who are also active in other +10k community groups like Telegram: Contact @tegantr and redirecting members to Near Turkey if they have questions regarding NEAR.
ok so thats the Astro TurkishDAO https://app.astrodao.com/dao/turkey.sputnik-dao.near
and SputnikDAO (the old one) SputnikDAO
will move the funds to ASTRODAO if the proposal gets approved
Ok cool,
Let’s invite further feedback from @marketingdao-council then we can move forward with Astro submission.
I would like to remind you that you should only submit a payout request to the DAO after it has been approved on the forum.
Thanks!
Hi again @cizi31 I would just like to reiterate what I said before regards your proposed budget allocated to social media.
As a new project it is important for us to build confidence and understanding in what you are hoping to achieve.
The funds you have requested are considerably more than other projects who are running similar social marketing campaigns.
Hi @cryptocredit ok I understand.
so with which amount do you think we can work? Unfortunately Influencers asking for each Tweet xxx $ that’s why we had to increase the amount for this month. Everything is going to be expensive.
Anyway, so what about 3800$ in NEAR ?
With the promise to increase the community *2 from here as stated aboth ?
Please let me know how we can proceed if needed I can also create a new proposal but this all really takes much time would be great to start asap to achieve our targets before EOY.
Btw. we got approval for the blockchain academy Aiming to have +1000 students with us next month. During the academy we will invite them to a developer Telegram group also.
I Know thats something for education department but just FYI as you asked about it yesterday
Thank you again for your feedback much appreciated.
Hi Cizi,
Congratulations on getting approval for Blockchain Academy! Glad to see community members step up to help out Sherif with Education efforts, that area is exploding with activity across the ecosystem.
I’m curious: is the Turkish Guild receiving funding from any other sources?
It’s a little bit harder to assess the proposal as it has a mix of Education and Marketing; social media alone is indeed higher than the average we tend to fund, but as a guild with education initiatives, etc. the amount seems more reasonable. We just need to find the best way to structure and get these initiatives funded.
Finally, I would also suggest hosting in-person Meetups (where safe and appropriate to do so due to Covid restrictions). Now seems like a great time to get local communities back together.
Hi @satojandro Thank you!
The Blockchain academy was the first time we got fund from other source. There will be a small reward to the students for their participation. Also we had to pay etkinkampus.com for organizing the event and get contact to all universities. There will be an educator also planning all the stuff for the academy.
Ok Yes, Please let’s only focus on the marketing part of this proposal. I only shared the blockchain academy because I was told to focus on development and education also in my last marketing proposal. So I just wanted to say that as Turkey DAO we are not only focusing on Telegram group members, we are also thinking about how to grow the ecosystem with more devs / educators etc…
About in-person meetings: We are planning to open an office / or coffee shop in Turkey and hold such kind of meetings. So people will have the ability to drink coffee and know about NEAR Protocol, ask their questions etc…
Due Covid it’s really hard to organize it, now the number of infected people is increasing again. For now we can do live calls / videos with the community members and hold AMA sessions.
Thanks for clearing that up! The application has now been approved and the funds should be on your nominated wallet.
Do kindly note that we’ve approved the budget taking into account that you are working with Sherif and that makes us very bullish for the expansion of NEAR in the region. We were less particular about the itemised spending of each item as we are trusting you to manage the resources and allocate as you see fit. This means that we’d expect a monthly report showing the impact the current funds had prior to processing next proposal. Keep up the good work!

Hey @cizi31 Ciz, we got nice one turkish youtuber Backheel Crypto
He has an average 10k views and asks only 700 USD for product review, it’s a GREAT deal. Idk how, but for sure he can do some advertising for Turkish Guild.
Ill catch you in a week. Think about what content you would like to give him for promo (if you like him). Will take care of rest.
Hi @Zhunda thats great!
We made a video about near wallet + staking. So I am thinking now which content we can or should use next…
Let me think about it, open for ideas too.
Thank you for letting me know. Appreciate that! Speak to you soon
BR
Sure, take your time.
Ill let you know when we will get the budget Backheel Crypto.
If nothing will come up to advertise, will jump to another topic, maybe for Janyary something new might show up from your side. ))
