**Introduction and Key Considerations**

We have been working for the Polkadot cause for several months, enhancing Polkadot's presence with several key partners like CoinGecko, THE BLOCK and a vast selection of KOL.
With CoinMarketCap, we aim to capture the last significant slice of market share to further solidify Polkadot's footprint.


**About US**

You can find our projects, KOL, and activity breakdown with Polkadot [On our brand new dedicated website](https://www.marketing-bounty.com/) 

I come from eVox.gg, Media Agency & Content Creator Management company based in Milan. Over the past 7 years, we have had the privilege of managing hundreds of talented content creators and have worked with some of the world's leading brands, including Samsung, HP, Amazon, Netflix, Prime Video, Footlocker, Activision, and Microsoft.

Here are some numbers about our Polkadot campaigns:
- 100+ creators from more than 30 different countries around the world, involved from mid-February 2024 until now.
- Dedicated Polkadot content delivered in more than 12 different languages.
- Over 6.8M impressions from our PR & KOL campaigns
- Over 200.000 likes on Polkadot-related content
- Over 50.000 comments on Polkadot-related content

With CoinGecko, we delivered:
- the [10th Year Anniversary Polkadot Landing Page](https://landing.coingecko.com/10th-anniversary-polkadot/?utm_source=twitter&utm_campaign=10th-Anniversary&utm_medium=social#knowledge-hub) 
- Over 8M in app push notifications for DOT dedicated content.
- And now everyone can see the PINK FLAME that we designed on the homepage and Polkadot details page.

With THE BLOCK, thanks to the community support on our referendum, we are consolidating a very proficient partnership with an impressive reach and response from the user base with:
- A brand new Dashboard “Presented by Polkadot”
- More than 10 episodes of The Scoop Podcast
- More than 4 The Scoop newsletter issues
- More than 10 Daily newsletter issues
- An upcoming sponsored post

**What’s the value we bring to these projects?**

- **Analysis, addressing Strengths and Weaknesses**: We take our partner’s proposals, we analyze them and we plan how to elevate their strengths while addressing weaknesses in the meantime. We tailor the partner’s project budget and monthly delivery timelines.
- **Performance Transparency**: The various performance metrics we agree upon with third parties are finally formalized through contracts, ensuring that accountability is established. This holds the other party responsible and compels them to deliver on their promises.
- **Performance Optimization**: When collaborating with Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs), we work hand in hand on crafting the narrative: script drafting, and multiple layers of validation to avoid situations where the community might turn against the creator due to poor or not useful content. For live streaming sessions, we are acting like a bridge between the partner and Top Polkadot personalities enhancing every aspect of the event, thanks to our long experience in the digital media industry.


**About CoinMarketCap**

We began working with CoinMarketCap within the Marketing Bounty. We managed the implementation of the animated logo for 24 months (with an exclusivity period ensuring that DOT is the only project with access to this feature), and we're executing a campaign based on deliverables aligned with those we want to implement through this referendum.

CoinMarketCap is the world’s #1 trusted source of crypto data, insights & community. 
CMC is an established powerhouse in the crypto industry and acts as the go-to source for crypto intelligence for top media agencies around the world, like Forbes, Bloomberg, CNBC, Recode, WSJ, TC, and The Economist.
Actually, CMC alone holds 65% of the market share with 600M Monthly page views, 50M Monthly unique visitors, and 2.5M cryptos tracked.

Their current marketing strategy allows some strategic positioning on their social proprieties and we want to occupy that positioning for Polkadot.

**WHY OPENGOV**

While this activity enjoys strong support among the Marketing Bounty curators, we believe that due to its size and amount, it would be more appropriate and convenient to fund the activity with a dedicated referendum through OpenGov.
