    Marketing Plan:

  1. Registration on the official Korea Blockchain Week side event sheet: Application already submitted last week, will be available on the official sheet once it becomes available.
  2. Luma link: https://lu.ma/la3u8xrj (Automatically shows in the local events list).
  3. Koodles Twitter Posts/Re-tweets by members.
  4. Speak on Ink Tank/Portal/Dood morning Spaces: Reach out to potentially visiting doods from all around the world!
  5. Also could do another derivatives collection like this: https://x.com/koodles_society/status/1743631723143876782
  6. Materials:

  7. Decorations: Will need digital screen assets like last year so the holders can take lovely photos with their doods! (https://x.com/youngsunlive/status/1698583719467212969)
  8. Products: T-shirts will be also powerful tool to spread the love locally and globally because each of us loves to rock the custom dood shirts at other global events (https://x.com/koodles_society/status/1703488496160411927)
  9. Also we plan on making the hand stamps which looked very cute and photogenic from the Consensus party! (Couldn't find the photo)
  10. And maybe we could order some of the Toastie candles as samples irl?
  11. Content Capture:

  12. Take snap photos and videos!
  • We have 5+ staff volunteering at the event.
  • Especially with the screen assets/cute decorations, the visitors naturally take pictures/videos and post them online (we shall encourage tagging @koodles_society).
  1. Maybe hire video artist if our locally sponsored budget permits.

Extra Details:

We had a meaningful victory as a community last year in Seoul, especially by leveraging the opportunity to welcome global doods who were visiting for Korea Blockchain Week. Additionally, it was exceptionally memorable with Poopie making a special appearance and delivering a lovely speech for the community. An event like this would be more than meaningful for everyone in the local community and the global visitors.
