I accept the nominations for Marketing fund and so I apply for that position.

I've been a part of NXT since early December 2013 and immediately became a active and involved member of the community. Due to this I was made global moderator over at Nextcoin.org and voted in as lead organizer for our first attempt at getting marketing going over there. But there was one problem: no funds for bounties.
But we did still get things going and the first infographics, videos, articles, logo, slogans, bitcoin conference etc. was organized and succesful.
Me and Nifty also started a volunteer questionaire where a lot of talented people applied for NXT projects, but again we were completley lacking any sort of funding and so we had to turn quite a few of them down. This time with a marketingfund I can see A LOT being done.

My reasoning for choosing NXT was simple. I took a look at the ongoing projects and only NXT stood out as interesting. All the others were simply copypasting Bitcoin and so I knew they would never become anything big. So I invested the little savings I had into NXT and dedicated myself fully to the coin. It's also one of the main reasons I started looking into cryptos. I'm not only here for personal gains (but a mans got to eat too!), but I love the revolution that is taking place. I felt that Bitcoin with the Bitcoin foundation sucking up to governments and big banks had lost it's rebellious way and it felt natural that NXT who took it to a whole new level was the place to get in early.


I also organize the NXT swarm group (30+ people) which already has got us on several exchanges.
Also eSports showmatch(es) that gained us thousands of viewers.
Also moderator on nextcoin, nxtcrypto and /r/nxt
Also communicating with different authors on different websites who will write articles about NXT
Also keep intouch with quite a few talented people who can help out with NXT in other ways
etc. etc.
