As most of you probably know, I am a proud member of the Utopian Team, as the new Visibility Manager. This wonderful opportunity has arrived at a time when there is a very 'serene' time for the block chain (to put it in a sweet way).
There have been a number of contributions for the Visibility Category in the last couple of weeks, however this week has been very quiet (meaning zero contributions).
Therefore, instead of a Weekly Report, I decided to post a few tips for Open Source Project Owners who wish to publish a Visibility Task Request.
For the previous Weekly Reports, please scroll down
What to Consider Prior to Creating your Visibility Task Request
Is your project open source? Does it have a github account?
How long has the project been operating? Is there a team behind it? Who can someone contact for more details?
Are there any actions taking place regarding Visibility & Promotion?
What is the project's state? Is it available for all? What questions does it answer or which problems does it solve? What is it utilized for?
Have you considered your goals? Both short term and long term ones?
Who would your audience be? Where do people interested in your project live, what do they do, what could their age be?
- What is that you initially wish? To make your presence known? What do you wish people to do? To download an app? To visit a website? To send their feedback?
Please keep in mind:
A well defined task request should help marketers understand the project, help them research about it and help them design their marketing actions. This way the outcome is measurable and the results are identifiable.
Some Suggestions for Creating a Task Request for Social / Visibility Category
