You could use Bitcoin crowdfunding services like https://bitcoinstarter.com/ or http://coinfunder.com/browse or even both of them for that purpose 
That would also attract more attention to Bitmark itself.

I wholeheartedly agree, to reach out to other communities and bring people in is always our primary goal.
We do not want to become a community of people swapping money between ourselves, it is clear where that ends up.
To bring in one potential adopter or somebody to the discussion, that is as more valuable than any funding could be.
OK, well then lets move in this direction. I agree that Crowdfunding Bitmark's Side Projects will provide a good metric by which to gauge public interest.
We could also consider RocketHub.com.
- Funds donated through RocketHub are given to the project, regardless if the project meets its monetary goals.
- Also noteworthy, RocketHub's new partnership with A&E could potentially magnify Bitmarks exposure outside of the crypto community. (This appears to be inline with Bitmarks long term Strategic Vision)
