RE: dStors Splits & dCommerce Emerges

in #dcommerce6 years ago

It is not about who wins, but there is competition. The market share is limited to begin with, and now that share is potentially split. It is good for us to have options and those options are competing against each other to win our patronage. Now, both competitors must decide how they will bring in new users to STEEM space because sharing a limited resource will not be fruitful for either competitor.

In other words, how are you going to grow a large userbase? Making Steemians happy will be a no-win situation as there are just not enough of us. In order to grow your business, You will need to have a plan to grow STEEM users well beyond what we have today.

I would like to see a plan explaining how you intend to do this.

Sort:  

We are finalizing a go to market strategy. As you mentioned, there could be competing efforts and usually this benefits the consumers.

As a private, for profit corporation, our natural inclination is not to open our books nor the full details of our strategy and tactics. No private company would do this for obvious reasons.

However, to your point of how will dCommerce expand beyond Steem community, we will be aligning visibility campaigns across multiple social media channels, Advertisements, proportions, affiliate programs, etc. The www.dcommerce.live site will also readily accept Visa and PayPal so as to attract non-Steemians participation. In order for them to spend DCC tokens for upvotes, these buyers/sellers will have to setup either or both Steem and WLS accounts.

  • Finalizing market strategy - Looking forward to seeing that strategy
  • Not opening books - No need to see those details. Didn't ask for them.
  • Marketing - that is promising but ambiguous (marketing for @dcommerce or STEEM?)
  • Use of a token that is traded for upvotes in STEEM system - Not too excited about another paid upvote service, although, understandable strategy given the STEEM system as it exists today. Seems like that would bring value to the individual user of your token while reducing value of the STEEM network.
  • Use of Visa & PayPal - Great, but is that something different than @dstors

What I was fishing for was what makes @dcommerce valuable to STEEM that sets @dcommerce apart from @dstors to create a user base of new Steemians that doesn't already exist on STEEM.

This may be a tough to answer. I understand. Maybe you need some time to ponder the concept as you have already stated that you are still finalizing your market strategy.

Interesting. As an arm chair analyst, you're trying to dissect and dissect....I don't think you'll get a reply.
