Summary: Working with Web3 Content Creators w/ReadyPlayerJay
Major Themes:
- Strategic Creator Engagement: Ready Player Jay emphasizes the importance of engaging with content creators organically, especially for early-stage Web3 gaming projects. Instead of pushing for large marketing spends, he suggests leveraging what you have—like offering NFTs or access to demos—to generate genuine interest and engagement.
- Content Creator Mix: A mix of traditional and micro-influencers is recommended for marketing campaigns. While large influencers can provide broad reach, micro-influencers often offer higher engagement rates within niche communities.
- Budget Allocation: For Web3 projects, allocating $5,000 to $10,000 for content creator campaigns can effectively spread awareness, with a focus on achieving a good cost per thousand impressions (CPM) and maintaining engagement over time.
- Content Type: Tailor the content type to the creator's strengths, whether it's video, threads, or streams, to ensure quality and engagement.
- Long-term Engagement: Instead of one-off videos or posts, Jay recommends structuring month-long activations with content creators to ensure sustained visibility and multiple touchpoints for potential users.
- Conversion and KPIs: While direct conversion from influencer campaigns can be challenging to track, aiming for a healthy CPM and a solid click-through rate to the landing page can indicate success.
