Proposal description

Thank you for reading this proposal today!

Why are we here?  In 2014 my friend Robert from Wall of Coins told me about Bitcoin and I was immediately hooked because of seeing how much the world needs it.  Two years later, I had made video courses and YouTube tutorials mentioning Bitcoin repeatedly from how to setup a wallet through trading altcoins on Poloniex.  Despite being active in the world of digital currencies for two years, I paid no attention to Dash until December 2016 when my friend Albert started telling me about it as a result of working with Robert .  Albert’s excitement was so contagious that in JUST THREE WEEKS I had traded all of my Bitcoin and my altcoins into enough Dash to buy my own masternode.

Last week I put my masternode online which I used to make the first YES vote on this proposal!  Today I launched the world’s first Dash video course using Skillshare at http://skl.sh/2iVPefr.  This is a small sampling of what I can do on a daily basis for you here as a member of the Dash community.  Download the official proposal here.

Would you VOTE YES on this proposal help me use youtube.com/jerrybanfield and facebook.com/jbanfield and skillshare.com/r/jerrybanfield to SHARE MY EXCITEMENT ABOUT DASH with the millions of people watching my videos?  My vision is that YOUR YES VOTE will lead to the price of Dash increasing on average 1% DAILY as a result of newly funded Dash wallets and masternodes launched by my followers!  When you vote yes, I agree to mention Dash in 50+ videos new videos by February 2017, launch an exclusive live stream about Dash, add annotations to all my existing popular videos, and continue working on my Dash video course!  According to socialbluebook.com/c/jerrybanfield, the recommended amount I charge for this service is $20,000+ which is why I have chosen to ask for 497 Dash for this proposal.  My expectation is that the work I do will help Dash reach $40 by the end of 2017!

Who is watching my videos?  In the last 28 days, 2+ million people in the USA alone saw the videos I made FOR FREE their newsfeed on Facebook.  Watch this video to see how I do my marketing on Facebook and see for yourself in my recent screenshot!

About a million more watched globally including those not in the USA above and on YouTube as seen below. I expect the same to continue each month in 2017 because my business is designed to teach people valuable skills for free.

Your YES VOTE will give me enough money to make Dash an exclusive sponsor across all of the popular videos I have made and in all new videos for the month of February 2017 which should result in MILLIONS of people learning about Dash for the first time!

How would the price of dash be impacted by millions of people learning about Dash for the first time and thousands making their first purchase?  What would the dash community look like with thousands of new users as excited as me?

All of the results will be easy to measure by seeing the views on my new videos on https://www.youtube.com/jerrybanfield and https://www.facebook.com/jbanfield. When you VOTE YES on this proposal, I will include at least 30 seconds IN EVERY VIDEO about Dash delivered each time in a unique way as related to what I am talking about!

My vision is to grow the price of Dash by about 1% on average daily through sharing my excitement about Dash and the follow up purchases of Dash each day which will steadily drive the demand up a little bit each day.

When you VOTE YES on this project, I agree to
  1. Make a MINIMUM of 50+ videos featuring Dash for at least 30 seconds with an estimated 1+ million views.  At 497 Dash total for the project, this equals less than 10 Dash per video along with everything else done below!
  2. Create and keep updated a complete online video course of at least an hour showing everything from setting up a Dash wallet to starting a masternode.
  3. Deliver at least one dedicated live stream video on Facebook and YouTube featuring how I am using Dash.
  4. Design and maintain https://jerrybanfield.com/dash/ with my basic information about Dash plus the exact wallets, masternode hosting, and trading websites I use.
  5. Add annotations and links to my 100+ most popular YouTube videos encouraging people to learn more about Dash with an estimated return of millions of views in 2017 featuring Dash in my older viral videos.
After reading previous projects, I am taking a LEAP OF FAITH by starting my work TODAY as described here in this project!  Just an hour ago I released my Dash class at http://skl.sh/2iVPefr and I will soon be following up with my first YouTube and Facebook video dedicated to talking about Dash which I will link here when they are done!  When this first project is successful and completed by the end of February 2017, I plan to submit future projects to make a long term partnership marketing Dash to all my followers!  Seven days a week I work on my business for 3 to 6 hours a day with rarely any days completely off.

Thank you very much for reading all this!  Before submitting this proposal, I read lots of other proposals just like it to learn and understand what is expected of me here.  As a recovering lazy person, I often find myself reading proposals and then just closing them without voting.  Now that I am aware of this, I am working to make sure I place a vote after reading a proposal.

Congratulations on making it all the way to the end!  Would you make sure you get a return on your time invested with me today by VOTING ON THIS PROPOSAL NOW before another text message, phone call, or email comes in demanding your attention?

Would you help me build the Dash community up a little bit every day and share my excitement for Dash by VOTING YES on this PROPOSAL?

Sincerely,
Jerry Banfield

Discussion: Should we fund this proposal?

Do you think I should make another proposal for say 97 Dash to do a Dash video course or for a specific project such as a Dash tutorial on YouTube? This process of sumbitting a proposal like this has been quite painful from watching the initial votes come in at 14 to 2 or so and then within 24 hours seeing what is here now. I would like to be a helpful part of the Dash community and I value your feedback about a good proposal format for my next try.

In my opinion pick something small and deliver it well with high quality. Don't bite off more than you can chew. This is the mistake that many unverified proposals we have seen have done.

I would say propose a proof of concept of a small portion of what you have planned to show your capabilities for say 50 DASH and I would say most people would take that risk. Deliver it well and get good results that you can use as evidence to the community and you shouldnt have a problem continuing with your remaining plan.

Welcome to the dragon's den! My first two proposals failed as well, so I know the feeling.

I would support a lower amount for a set project such as the ones you mention.

If you succeed in creating a buzz, then you will have a history to cite in support of more ambitious projects.

"Build it and they will come".

Get building! :-)

You are unknown to the community. So it's a good idea to start with a proposal with a lower amount (e.g. 100 DASH) and proof the value you delivered to the DASH project. I suppose the community will be glad to fund a larger project, if the small one was successful.
Reply

I do agree and these were my first thoughts.
Ask the community for the lower amount first, deliver something as you would like to do during this period.
Get people attention and send them to download from official site, send them to dashnation slack so we can see, talk with the new people and see thier experience etc. That would show that you`re worth of this 500 coins proposal which IMO is a lot anyway!
Check Amanda & Pete videos and their quality of product delivered week by week and more often for much less.
I want to see the dash info spreaded and would vote yes but first show us the baby ;) but for now it`s vote-many NO for me.

Thank you would asking for 97 Dash for a specific project such as making a complete video course be more appropriate to begin?

IMO you`d have more chances to obtain it and get the votes, once you prove yourself affidable who delivers a quality product you migh go for a bigger project/funding.

voting NO - when someone says they can help the dash price go up every day by 1% because of them...when they have only just heard about dash....
Reply

The numbers don't add up...oh and "YOUR YES VOTE will lead to the price of Dash increasing on average 1% DAILY" are you on crack?
But really, thanks for your proposal. I don't feel it would make very good use of the limited Dash budget and therefore I must vote no.

I will keep it short: If this proposal passes I will lose all faith in our Treasury System.

I am also voting no. I would need to see a lineup of videos about Dash with view counts and follow up action to Dash.org before I would consider this proposal. As for Twitter popularity, I don't have much hope for action there. This tweet was posted 7 hours ago, with no RTs and no likes.

Too much Dash is being requested here for promises, but there are cracks in the armor. His recent videos which can be found on his channel only reached 300-1000 people. I would need to see considerably more views than Dash: Detailed for this to be worth the kind of money he's asking for.

To the proposer: Make some videos about Dash on YouTube, let's see what kind of action you get. Until then, no thanks.

That's a lot of money up front for videos. Maybe some milestones and milestone payments, or monthly payments, or fund 1 month at 50 Dash to start, or something different.

Thank you blockhead for commenting on this because you have helped me to explain better here! To decide how much to charge, I reviewed my https://socialbluebook.com/c/jerrybanfield/ listing which suggested a price of $12,570 for a shoutout in 50 videos just based on Facebook. When including YouTube, and Twitter (every video gets a matching tweet), the price is around $20,000. After reading comparable projects, reviewing the data I just shared, and considering my passion for Dash, I decided the minimum I would charge to give everything I have to do a great job promoting this is 497 dash. This is am amount I would be very excited to receive funding at and if the project does not pass, I am happy to resubmit this month after month as I do the work on it now!

Don't count on much help from Twitter. 103,000 followers with the most action being 3 likes on your recent tweets? Something doesn't add up there.

Not sure how accurate this twitter audit tool is, but it says his twitter followers are legit. https://www.twitteraudit.com/JerryBanfield

50 videos minimum with 1 million views for each one if I understand correctly. That brings the cost per view to about 1/13 of a cent. It's a good deal but the thing is will you actually manage to do this?

Ichigo13 thank you for helping me explain this better and I will plan to edit the project to make this more clear! I am offering to give a shout out in 50+ videos which includes 30 seconds of a live natural mention of Dash as related to what I am talking about and also do at least one dedicated live video stream. In the last month, my posts reached over 2 million people on Facebook along with half a million more on YouTube. I am expecting within the next month to have the same results with the potential to get much more over the next year. The work I am doing is what I control and how many people actually watch each video and take action will be up to the viewers! When I used the data from http://socialbluebook.com/c/jerrybanfield to calculate how much to charge here, the suggested price for what I have listed was $20,000 not counting the dedicated live stream which would add a few thousand more. I read previous dash projects and am excited today to make one of the most ambitious marketing proposals I have seen yet with plan of continuing to make more new proposals each month!

Hi Jerry, I like your energy.

I see you have millions of views on some YouTube videos, and you are good at using various techniques to create your content.

I would personally vote yes if (within the next couple of weeks) you could show us that you are able to get Dash to truly resonate with members of your audience.

An easy demonstration would be to see how many new users you can get interested enough in learning about Dash that they come and join us for a chat on the Dash Nation slack. That way we could see if we are going to get value from your proposal.

If you like my suggestion, preferably have users install the Slack iOS or Android app, and refer them to the following invite link to sign up: http://dash-nation-invite.herokuapp.com/

Just ask them to mention in Slack that they heard about Dash from you, have them provide a bit of feedback about what they think of Dash so far, and our Dash social team might start them off by tipping them their first bit of Dash.

Let me know what you think?
