RE: Dear @stan, If You Want To Market Steem and BitShares, Follow What Elon Musk Does With Tesla: Here's An Idea For You

in #growth-ideas8 years ago (edited)

you are also seeing marketing and sales in terms of the old ways.
I worked with an inventor in California. I spent weeks with him, understanding the inventions he created. I got to the point that I realized his fatal flaw: he had no storytellers, no artists working with him. I got him connected with some filmmakers and others who could get his message out. He died before I could really have an impact. But he died with the knowledge that someone cared to tell his story, and to get it out......inventors are really special to me in many ways.
Tesla uses crowd sourcing to tell its story. There's no need to go the sleazy sales route with Steem....what it needs are teachers with integrity, much like what Dash has with Amanda. Also, creating contests from the people who are already here. That's a story telling idea of the present times.
The days of loser snake oil are over.

Sort:  

Yes, the days of loser snake oil are over.
Just like the days of paper fiat currency backed by a gun is over.

Its just not dead yet.
And the new methods haven't laid many paths yet.

I learned to draw because I could never in a million years describe the things in my mind.
Even with drawings, it is still not enough some times.

And, I really dislike salesman like people. So, please understand if I put all that in a box of don't go there.
It is the same with HR. I won't form a company in The USSA because I would need to have an HR department. I hate everything about HR. Even the people that are attracted to those positions.
