Drum roll please...

So I'm you're new head of marketing and promotion.

Those of you who have participated in the Branding thread know me, and I hope you pop up to say hi. Those of you who don't, I'm a tech guy who works in the advertising world, I hope I can be useful in this new role.

*Straightens tie and sits down to new desk*

Ok, so let's figure out where we are at:


- this thread is not active enough to support community growth, let's change that. I'm probably going to be spamming this thread for the next few weeks but as we find a groove I'll pull it back (and feel free to tell me I'm being a preachy asshole if I'm talking too much)

- We need to grow community. If you would like to participate in a community action, or have a particular skill you would like to add, please feel free to post it here or PM me. If you know any potential community leaders I should be reaching out to - let me know.

- We need to start a constructive conversation - I'm not picking on the "the sky is falling" crowd, or the "HVC to the moon" crowd, but let's take a pulse for where we are at: anyone who wants to say their piece about HVC, where they feel we are at, where we are winning/losing - let's do it over the next few pages and really figure out how the people who are paying attention feel about the project.

- Let's get this whole thing out of my hands as quickly as possible. This is supposed to be a decentralised currency - having a centralised community structure makes no sense. If we are able, let's build the community to a point where I can't affect anything, (but I personally hope I am a respected member of the community).

- social media etc - putting the feelers out - I'm trying to take stock of the assets we have so we can make a plan to use them.


Responses to other members:

@keccak512 - Yeah, I need to explain that a lot better - will do tomorrow

@ZangiefPT - Really, thanks very much for your message man. This is a new and very interesting thing for me, but to be honest, I was most worried I'd be run out of town after my first message - thanks for the support.

@cayars - I owe you a response to our conversation mate - will do tomorrow.

@cryptomines - you are 100% correct dude

@TheRealSteve - thanks for being the hero of this thread man, please PLEASE keep doing what you are doing



The wind is at our back and we can catch it if we want to. Let's decide where we want this to go.

Gentlemen (and, hopefully, Ladies), we can do this if we decide to.

Cheers,
M
