Six Month Marketing Roadmap to Enhance Aventus Network Visibility & Engagement
Overview:
The purpose of this proposal is to allocate 45,000 AVT from the Aventus Treasury to support a six-month marketing campaign aimed at increasing visibility for the Aventus Network (AvN) within the blockchain industry. This proposal aims to provide the foundations for a long-term and sustainable marketing strategy for the AvN across a range of platforms to grow brand awareness and recognition, and increase the utility of the AvN.
Goal & Background:
The vision underscoring the Aventus Network has always been and continues to be fundamentals first. However, part of increasing fundamentals is increasing brand recognition and awareness of the Aventus Network amongst businesses and developers. The more users build on the network, the higher its utility via network effects.
Ellie t.me/elliehyman & Sef t.me/pak1man have developed an in-depth six month marketing strategy that will focus on creating engaging content that showcases the benefits and potential of the Aventus Network, and are requesting 45,000 AVT from the Aventus Treasury in order to fund it.
