Re: Nxt marketing & promotion :: Infographics and Articles Bounties
I sent a similar message to salsa two days ago but haven't gotten a response, so I'm paraphrasing and posting here.
The Toronto BitcoinExpo site has been updated: http://bitcoinexpo.ca/
There's a lot more info than there was last week. The expo is April 11-13.
I offered some time ago to go to this conference, but haven't had anything firm nailed down, and no funding has been officially set aside for the venture.
What strategy might we employ for it? We're not likely to get on the speakers' list (I've had no contact with Anthony Di Iorio, but he seems to be hand-picking speakers and it's all VERY BTC-centric). We *could* go in as a sponsor, OR as an exhibitor.
An exhibitor spot costs $2500 CDN (which we can pay in BTC) and allows us to bring promo materials; a standard ticket for Sat/Sun is $200 CDN; and I haven't checked flights in the last week but we're still likely around $700 CDN to get from where I live to the expo.
We could also become a sponsor. Paying $2000 lets us bring ONE promo item.
An easy-win promo item would be a version of the tri-fold brochure currently being built for the Texas conference.
Without being a sponsor or exhibitor, we cannot bring promotional materials.
What are the community's thoughts?

Exhibitor space is 45,000 Nxt, if I calculated correctly?
And sponsor 37,000 Nxt?
Just trying to get a feel for the numbers.
This is a month and a half away, so time to prepare, which is good.
What do you think, joefox?
I myself am FOR sponsor spots, IF we go in and make use of that status. Can we do this together with jefdiesels faucet plan? https://nextcoin.org/index.php/topic,3441.0.html
And yes, brochures etc. too, of course.
I still think that's a great way to actually generate Nxt users, which is the kind of ROI we need.
Can we try to make this deliberation based on an actual plan? *gasps of shock*
So, yes, provided we make use of it and make some stuff. EvilDave and I will need the same stuff, so we might as well pool resources here.
Thoughts?
