Description
I am excited to present my grant proposal for a marketing campaign that mostly consist of a video (mockups at the end) aimed at attracting NFT communities to Decentraland and encouraging them to start selling NFTs within the platform using the no-code tool DG Live, the builder, SDK and pre-made builds (I’m going to use the ones created by Mr. Dhingia). The motivation behind this is the theory that brands may want to create their own NFT stores in Decentraland if they don’t have to code almost anything and they can accept $ICE as a payment method.
Why putting focus on $ICE? Because Decentral Games Poker players are earning this token 24/7 and they can spend it on DG or in… NFT stores!
The content of the video consists on:
a) Why an NFT project should start selling on Decentraland
b) Where they should publish (DCL Worlds, land (bought/rented))
c) How to create the store using the builder
d) How to move the store from the builder to the SDK
e) How to add DG Live
f) How to configure the store using DG Live and accept $ICE, Coinbase/Binance payments and credit card
g) How to deploy (both Genesis City and Worlds)
The video production process has been underway for the past two weeks, during which I have dedicated my time and efforts to create visually stunning animations using After Effects. The script has been carefully crafted to ensure it is easily understandable by individuals with varying levels of technical knowledge. Moreover, to streamline the store creation process, I have taken the initiative to make Mr. Dhingia Builds ((MrDhingia) Dhingia Builds | Wiki | Decentraland Misc | Unversed) easily downloadable from my website (with his permission), accompanied by a promotional video to raise awareness (https://twitter.com/unversed_EN/status/1664278130075504643).
I firmly believe that my previous work on Decentraland has demonstrated its value to the platform, and I am confident that this video will be no exception. To access my previous work, kindly visit Tobik - YouTube. You can see that some of those videos (like the VR one) are being actively watched and recommended by the developers.
While I am committed to completing the video regardless, I kindly request financial support to compensate for the considerable time and effort invested in this project. The return on investment for this video is expected to be high, and such support would serve as both motivation for me to continue creating valuable content. In fact, a big portion of this money will be re-invested on upgrading my setup.
