That's exactly how marketing works. Talking to people.

The paid shit works only for "sales".

You would know this if you would have have done marketing before this.

Email marketing = doesn't work for hive.

influencer marketing, = doesn't work because it would work for the front end, not for the chain itself. Maybe keychain as a wallet for hive.

PRs, general articles, and videos.

Yeah, i have seen this. Was looking like a 50$ Fiverr gig.

I think a 2010 GSA spam would bring more attention, lol. So yeah in conclusion the results was very bad.

And marketing agency work at a minimum of 70% profit margin.

Most funny part there was never a analyze for the steem run.

Most of them come from people that let other people know about it.

And this happens in the first place to let people know.

But i respect that agency for brainwashing you what marketing means.
