Worldwide ICON dApps Accelerator Alliance

Hello ICONSpartans!

it is a pleasure for us, HOLA ICON, and ICON Pinas, to present the following proposal whose aim is to promote ICON dApps through videos, social media, marketing, quizzes, and AMAs with the goal of giving a wider exposure to those dApps that the ICON community have selected by voting through ICON Vote.
In order to engage a wide audience, the initiative will be promoted in social channels and Airdrops/prizes will be given either during the voting process and the AMAs. We expect the initiative to encourage ICOnists and non-ICON users to use the dApps promoted and add more eyes on the ICON Network.

We hope the proposal is very welcome and seen as a good initiative. We, both teams, are very excited about it and will do our best to make it a great sucess!!

In this stage we will decide what type of video suits the best the real essence of the dApps to grab the attention of viewers. We will research and on board references, resources, components and music to be used during the next stage. *

14. Sponsor P-Rep

HOLA ICON (or other P-Reps who wish to sponsor this initiative)

This is great. what i am about to say i mean in the best way.
I would like to see this piece reach out to new platforms. We have a huge presence on twitter.
Could the above be added to Various decentralised platforms? We need to attract new users.

Hi @Fezbox thanks very much for your feedback and suggestions.

In terms of new platforms, Twitter was highlighted above in the CPS application, but our plan is to share these promo videos across various social media accounts.

Our team (ICON Pinas) in particular is most active on Telegram (this is where the AMA events will be held), and we will also be posting the promo videos on our: YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok (planning to open this account shortly), etc.

As it pertains to Twitter, the ICON Pinas account there will likely reach the familiar audience you are referring to, but it’s also worth noting that our team member Jenny has a separate non-crypto focused account (with more followers than the ICON Pinas account) which will also be used for added signal boost to a new market of users.

In any case, we’re actively working to grow all our social media accounts, and if you have specific suggestions for which decentralized platforms to share on, please let us know and we’ll be happy to dig more into it. :smiley:

Cheers!

Thats an amazing initiative guys!

I will respond soon. Sorry for the delay.

I am 100% with you, attract people from other communities to see the beauty, the benefits of using ICON dApps would be great, in my opinion the real goal. We will do our best to market them in other communities or in general crypto channels, but I personally hope all of us, the ICON community, to do one’s bit, and market the initiative in every TG channel they are, in twitter, …
We expect to attract people to participate in the vote from inside and outside of the ICON community thanks to the ICX lottery. We, ICON Pinas and us, will promote the initiative, and we hope everyone help to the promotion, sharing the videos we will create and making aware to others about the AMAs…
We will create the promotional videos for the initiative, for the dApps, and will deep dive onto the dApps thanks to the AMAs, which will give ICXs away as well. We will create the content, the enviroment, and I hope every ICONist help us to create awarness within the various crypto communities using the content and activities created/managed by us.
No one can do it better than the whole community. We need the ICONSpartans!!! We will be the blacksmiths that forge our army´s swords and shields!

thanks for your words mate :blush: . It is a pleasure for us to work with your team, it is really easy and exciting.
Thanks for your trust and offer, we will discuss it. One possibility could be to be sponsored by various P-Reps.

This proposal has been submitted to the CPS, modified as a stand-alone project from HOLA ICON, being sponsored by ICX Station.

ICON Pinas would still very much like to be involved and show our full support for P-Rep collaborations, however, to prevent potential overlap/confusion with some of our other projects, our team will not be featured on this one.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. We hope ICONists will rally behind this Worldwide ICON dApps Accelerator and vote yes to support HOLA ICON and help us get more awesome promo videos created for ICON dApps.
