Thank you for that beautiful answer, sir.
Hello.
To Sour Thunder,
Advertising Campaign is what Lutpin manages. It is not in his hands if the project/coin/site succeed or fail in due time. As answered by him, there are factors(several of them really) aside from advertising that can make the project/coin/site a success/failure.
Lutpin and Yahoo are dead-serious in their jobs as managers. I see posts of both of them from time to time as I scan for quality reads. If ever the project/coin/site that Lutpin managed did not go very successful, he still did his task .
I agree with your point but there are some people who would blame anyone and everyone when they find out they've been working for 2 weeks under a Campaign only to find their help coins worth 0.002BTC. The next thing they do is look for the OP of the Campaign thread. They don't understand the difference between a Campaign Manager and the Owner of the Campaign. They leave a negative trust under the Manager's name.
A decent amount of my campaigns are escrowed by myself (currently, 3 of 6 are). I usually prefer to run campaigns in this way, as it not only ensures payments, it also eases up the process for both me and the advertiser. Hence my initial suggestion is always to escrow funds with me (or another escrow of their choise).
Suppose I don't have enough trust as you. My main account is Sr. Member. What is the minimum amount I should hold from the campaign manager besides the Escrow while running the campaign? Also, when does the Escrow pay the users? Can I ask him to pay a fraction of his amount to the users if the Owner is late in his payments? I am saying this because earlier I ran a campaign and a delayed payment from the owner had me in trouble
