The best way to distribute tokens if there's no ICOs or IEOs is through bounty and airdrop campaign. Marketing it should take the form of paying for ads in top websites as well as reaching out to known cryptocurrency influencers to talk about the project.

Remember there will be a lot of people will be feeling curious about what token that they have already got in their wallet. there are so many ways to do this. What we must do to think about what way that we are really needed.
