RE: "60 Seconds of Steem" - Launching A Crowdsourced Marketing Campaign on DTube & Calling For Video Ad Creators! > $1,000 Steem in Sponsored Prizes

in #dtube6 years ago

The 10x rule, simply put, has two parts. One, make 10 times the effort as your competitors. Two, make your goals and your vision 10 times as big. Don’t take average actions. Don’t settle for average dreams. Don’t compete, dominate.

How do you dominate? You do what your competitors won’t do, and you never underestimate how much time, effort, and funds it takes to be successful. How do you do that, you take your conservative predictions and multiply them by ten.

That’s the 10x rule in a nut shell.

It emphasizes quantity over quality, which I take issue with, but when you’re talking about sales, PR, and making new customers, I think that it’s correct. Steem has a lot of problems, but it’s still pretty unique. Hammer that message to the world all day everyday and maybe something will happen. The content and the messages don’t have to be perfect, but the volume has to be big enough.

What if some of these donors, rather than reward the content creator directly, put up some money to air the videos through Facebook ads (with the creators’ names attached to them)? That would probably better serve the creators and the platform.

I’ll be giving this more thought. I’ve never edited a video before, but maybe I can come up with something.

These are very interesting thoughts @boxcarblue and I’m glad you shared them with us.

As I mentioned before, the campaign is sort of a test flight aiming to provide us with as many learnings, takeaways and ideas for future activities as possible. Funding some ads could be a great idea for the next action! Noted ;)
