I would really like to have more data on the reach and impact of these actions. I think that isolated marketing actions do not really end up having a positive impact.

Would be great for some marketing experts to weigh in

We could agree with some tip for this kind of promotion, but this amount is a bit more than worth. As mentioned in the proposal and the discussion, further requests should be better to used by a marketing bounty.

ROI is not clear to me.

Would be good to have some marketing experts express their thoughts/opinions. Also, while views and clicks are ok, what are some other metrics we can use to judge?

Just having the logo and talking about Polkadot in a very basic manner are not enough for this kind of ask, for PIF funding I would also suggest working with someone from the ecosystem to prepare some talking points and making it clear for the audience if it's a sponsoered segment.

Not up to standards, it seems he has reach, he is trying though, but the ask is way too high. He could bring speakers that could probably explain things, while being ask questions.

I don't feel strongly about this one. I aye'd their first proposal. The price seems to have jumped substantially, I guess view counts too, but I'm not really sure anymore that this approach to marketing is a good one. I abstain.

Hi everyone! I noticed you all had concerns regarding KPI/metrics beyond views and clicks, so I made a comment to clarify this! I hope you all read it and take it into consideration! <3 https://polkadot.subsquare.io/referenda/1405#7
