YouTube Series About Dash in Portuguese for the Brazilian Market

[Rod Ambrissi]

Proposal for:



YouTube Series About Dash in Portuguese for the Brazilian Market





Objective

Develop, create and execute a series of 8 Videos in Portuguese ( 1 per week ) introducing Dash for this specific market. Also create 8 video Interviews in Portuguese Via Skype with current users, early adopters and another member involved in Dash or Crypto Currency.

As cryptocurrency market in Brazil is very much behind compared to the US / EU market, there is much to be covered.



Goals

Explain and promote Dash to the Brazilian market in Portuguese in order to expand the use of Dash and motivate this specific market to adopt Dash, both as users and as merchants. I believe that the Dash project has seen an increase in adoption, investment and awareness by funding past TV shows and Youtube Channels in English and I am committed to expanding this to another language. I was born and raised in Brazil and moved to the US in 2000. I speak fluently Portuguese and Spanish.



Offer

When you vote yes, I agree to:

• Make 8 videos about Dash all with a common theme ( see Themes list below ) averaging 10 minutes each in length. Every Tuesday
• Skype Interview 8 guests to talk about how they got into Crypto Currency and what are the comparison and benefits of Dash. averaging 20 minutes each in length. Every Friday.

Social Media Strategy



Canal YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC5WA2NjZp8VHK_Vl8TdWTtQ
Twitter: https://twitter.com/DashDinheiro
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DashDinheiroDigital/


In order to target this specific audience, create a social media force with all platforms to distribute the video content via personalized Dash brand:

• In the beginning, I’ll be reposting those videos on my personal Facebook, Instagram and LinkDin wall in order to maximize the exposure and also I’ll reach out to a few friends and close communities to do so.

I've been in contact with Alex-Ru who is helping me create a few graphics with the Brazilian Flag and the Dash Logo in order to use this in our social media platform. I also contact Amanda B. Johnson a couple time who gave me some tips and guidelines about creating this proposal.



Research - I’ll conduct a 1 hour daily research for 2 months including weekend about the Brazilian Market cryptocurrency development and engage with key players that are talking about it and manage to cultivate a relationship in order to create opportunities to promote Dash and share this information on social media.

Proposal Evaluation Committee​

Hi Rod

As you know Dash is growing every day.
To deal with the increased number of proposal, a Proposal Evaluation Committee (PEC) has been created. This work is being done by volunteers (mostly Master Node Owners themselves).

We would like to know if you are planning to submit your proposal officially, i.e. Pay the 5 Dash to submit your Proposal?
If so, do you want the PEC (Proposal Evaluation Committee) to assist you in preparing your Pre-Proposal?

As you adjust your Pre-Proposal to our feedback, the evaluation is adjusted and this may be done a number of times (up to 3 or more).
Each time the chance of your Proposal being accepted by the MNO’s will increase.
If you want to know who will be doing the Evaluations – see here: Official PEC Pre-P https://goo.gl/qrbeXK

The evaluations also have another function:
To give the MNO’s and community a Prioritized List of Evaluated Proposals. This list will save the MNO’s and everyone else time and increase the chance of your proposal gaining votes. It will also prevent your proposal from getting lost amongst the horde or prevent it from not being read, because it’s too long or non-conforming.
Whether you accept our help or not: we will be doing Reports on all Pre-Proposals near the end of the cycle to prepare the Prioritized List of Evaluated Proposals.

If you do want to use our services (note this is a free service)
1. Please Private Message @Biltong on the Dash Pre + Budget Proposal Discussions Forum indicating that you want the help of the PEC, so we can assign a team to you. Just click on my picture in the forum to see the private message option.
2. We’ll wait for you to give us the go-ahead before we start the evaluation process.
3. Please note that we do not have that much time to give you feedback via the Evaluations. The final report has to be in 3 days before end of cycle and you have to have your last adjustments in 5 days before end of cycle : i.e.: Last Adjustments: 28 June.
4. We hope to receive at least 3 updates from you (if necessary) and provide you with the same number of Evaluation/Report feedbacks, but it does mean you and us will have to start asap.

Good luck with your Proposal!

 

[Rod Ambrissi]

Good Day Biltong,

This is a great tip, I'll definitely contact you in a private message. I really appreciate your support.

 

[abob54]

Rod - your plan looks like a good way to get into the Portuguese market, but I'm not seeing any specifics on distribution. Do you have a large youtube channel, or access to crypto-type email lists or meetups in Brazil? I agree with the general idea of your plan, but wouldn't want to end up with lots of good material without views. The price does not seem unreasonable, but it wouldn't have much use if the groups/videos were not seen by the right types of people in bulk.


Bitlong: I think everyone appreciates your interest in improving pre-proposals and understands also your interest in having your PEC committee funded by the MNOs, but perhaps you may not want to spam every brand new pre-proposal owner with such a tedious audit-looking form. Instead of requesting so much information out of each pre-proposal owner, maybe you could first just simply help and offer your expertise without forcing another layer of bureaucracy onto the system.

If I'm the only one who finds your form spamming blinding, forgive the intrusion here.

 

[Biltong]

I really appreciate your support.

You're welcome

 

[Biltong]

... Instead of requesting so much information out of each pre-proposal owner,...If I'm the only one who finds your form spamming blinding, forgive the intrusion here.

Hi Abob54 - thanx for your interest. Just doing what the PEC is supposed to do. I know you have only been here a week+ , so you might not know: The Dash Template was designed by the Master Node Owners' a couple of years ago to make their own lives easier. It asks for all the info that they need to make informed decisions.

The Proposal Evaluation Committee's main job is to help new Proposal Owners prepare their proposals so that they provide all the needed info required by the Dash Template; Keep it concise - a lot of proposals get ignored because the MNO's find them too long to read etc.

We have 6 very experienced MNO's who help with this process.
I hope you understand the PEC function better now.
BTW - we're hijacking this thread - Sorry: 'talking about another topic on someone else's thread' Any more questions, ask it in General

[Biltong]

Hi Rod,

Couple of things in How to submit a Dash Pre-Proposal https://goo.gl/7jmwXQ has been simplified to make your life easier
See Changes to Pre-Proposal and Note.

Good luck as always

 

[Rod Ambrissi]

Hi Biltong,

Thanks for the links, I'll take a look and made the necessary changes, let me know anyother suggestions you might have ... I apprecaite your time. Thank You

 

[Syntheist]

Hi,

Here is your first PEC Report.

Couple of notes:
• There is NO pass/failure mark. The percentage simply allows us to create a Prioritized List of Evaluated Proposals. The idea being that a MNO with very little time can concentrate on Proposals at the bottom of the list only. MNO’s with more time will obviously look at all proposals as per normal.
• The evaluation also enables the Evaluators to look for scammers etc and red-flag a proposal that is a possible danger to Dash. They have more time and tools to look for the tell-tale signs.
• How did the Evaluators decide on marks: PEC Evaluator Guidelines https://goo.gl/Futw1d
• MNO’s have been very lenient in the past. So even if you have, what you might consider a low mark, you might still pass the Vote.
• *Most Important*: The evaluation is to give you an idea of where you can improve your proposal to have a better chance of earning MNO votes.

When you improve your proposal, please color all new material in red and don’t delete any word/sentence, but use strike through. This will make it easier for the evaluator to find changes, when she or he re-evaluates your improved proposal. The MNO’s will also so be interested to see what you changed to improve your proposal.

Since you were unlucky enough to submit your Pre-Proposal just as the PEC started, you had a handicap: You did not know the importance of the Dash Project Proposal Template https://goo.gl/m0jgfS

This Template was created some years ago by the MNO’s to get all the information that they need to make an informed decision. It is also the easiest way for you to earn extra marks  If your proposal did not cover a question in the Template – just put the Heading and answer in your detail doc. If your proposal does cover the question: Just put the Heading with the words: See original Proposal.
E.g.: Project Scope - Milestones and Schedule: See original Proposal.

We know this is a painful bureaucratic exercise, but once you’ve done your improvements for this 1st one, the next couple of improvements (maybe just one?) will be easy, and of course – you are bound to have more proposals in the future!

Good luck

 

[Rod Ambrissi]

Hi Syntheist

Thanks for your feedback, there are some great information and I'll work on the template format well, I am finishing the walls of my basement at the moment where I am building the studio and soon I'll create an indroductory video in english to present to the MNO's. Thanks Again.. all the best

 

[Syntheist]

Thanks for the reply, I'm glad you feel the report is useful.

Yours is only the second report I have been part of so it's still very much a learning process.

Rod has upgraded this to an official proposal: https://www.dashtreasury.org/p-2968.prop

[Rod Ambrissi]

Thank You, the channel is growing rapdly and I am very happy in how the proposal approval is going positive... Thanks again for your support.

 

[abob54]

Glad to see the consistently new videos on the channel, and to see everything growing as planned, Rod.

 

[Rod Ambrissi]

Hey @abot54

It's kind of unreal how fast the channel is growing, my commitment was to make 16 videos during two months and I'm made already 40 videos, I lost control of my telegram group and my WhatsApp group because I get over 1000 messages per day in each group with people who wants to be in my channel, I had a list of halfpage of themes for the videos, and my list at the moment had past eight pages still to do make videos.
I also started a podcast channel and I am heavily working on social media engagement.
I left my job last month and I will renew my proposal for the next three months, at the moment I have over 1500 followers and over 25,000 views and over 500 other webpages sharing my video, all this in just six weeks.

Thanks for checking on the Channel - It has been a great success.

 

[abob54]

Rod has posted an official proposal to renew this project for 3 months: https://www.dashtreasury.org/p-3006.prop

 

[dashdisciple]

'Tis a bit pricey, Rod. Would you consider throwing $5-7k of this amount each month towards paid ads to beef up your groups faster? Organic is working, but for this amount of cash, some speed would be nice. In your market, $5-7k would go a very long way to pumping up your audience.

Your content is so solid, it's a shame not more people get to see it.

 

[Rod Ambrissi]

Hi @dashdisciple I defenelty will invist in marketing and adds on YouTube and other websites related to Criptocurrnecy in Brasil, I am also planning a campaing among other midsize Youtubers to share the Videos from DDD Channel and Starting in October I am doing a live show Sunday 9pm with a very cool concept where other Youtubers that have already bein on my channel , will be able to call live via skype and also interact via twitter feed. at the same time I'll ask for tasks related to the channel, for example sharing content of posting picutes and rewarding the viewers live with Dash via QR. It will look really cool and have a huge engangment response. There is a plan for swags like, Dash Tshirts , Keychains and a metal coin to come as well that is still in concept. The projects are there, my only problem at the momenti is that my day has only 24hr ...

I'm glad to hear that, Rod. Direct paid investment pointing to your YouTube channel and videos will definitely grow your group more quickly.

Giving away swag to your views is a good idea.

 

[alex-ru]

Great initiative and great videos!
Well, 20.000 USD/month looks "a bit" expensive for current number of brazilian viewers - but quality of this videos is perfect and they will be working for Dash for many years - So I think it's a good long-term investment... Also - if this initiative will be supported by Dash network - it will give a strong signal to talents from other countries (= other languages) to help Dash spread the word all over the World.

 

[JZA]

Great project, keep up the good work.
