Just like boxing and a variety of traditional and e-sports games have done we're now investigating having sponsors. Sponsors will be able to host tournaments and/or provide a variety of rewards for players. A sponsor essentially puts up a tournament purse, with whatever types of prizes they want, and the Steem Monsters community battles it out to win it. The sponsor gets attention and the players get money!
Similarly we're looking for advertisers as well. We'll put ads on our site and get your message out to our highly targeted, crypto-savvy audience.
Why this is a great opportunity for players
We're currently delivering over 100,000 page views per day on the steemmonsters.com website to around 2,000 daily unique players. That's a significant asset that we don't think should go to waste. Any revenue brought in from sponsorships and advertising can go to further development, increase marketing, and larger tournament prizes - all of which benefit the overall community by ultimately increasing the value of the cards.
Why this is a great opportunity for advertisers
Steem Monsters has a highly targeted audience of people who own and understand cryptocurrency, and since they are stakeholders in the platform by owning cards they have every reason to be excited and supportive of brands who choose to advertise and sponsor prizes in the game.
Compare this to traditional advertising channels where you have to fight against everyone doing whatever they can to block or ignore your messages.
What are players looking at?
The most popular views in the game are based around fighting or your collection.
The most popular is battle history followed by create team, battle, the collection tab, and the market.
What will it look like?
We're doing our best to make sure any adverisements on the site are non-intrusive and fit in with the overall look and feel of the site. The goal is really just to let players know where the prizes they are winning are coming from, and encourage you to support those brands who are supporting us.
Some mockups of potential ad placements are shown below, though please note that these are not final and are subject to change.
