This week Metafluence is celebrating an important milestone. The one that is the fruition of our non-stop journey towards realizing our visions and building an influencer-centric metaverse for everyone. So sit closer:

Half a year ago, we had our IDO and launched our $METO token. Over the past six months, we have gotten bigger, stronger, and wiser. Today we would like to share some of our success stories under three main categories: Business Development, Products, and Marketing.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Advisors and Backers

From the very beginning, the Metafluence team was guided and advised by well-known top industry experts. We’ve always been seeking new opportunities to help the project grow further and have been open to new connections that can add significant value to the project.

And today, we’re proud to have 5 advisors on board, including Jedidiah Taylor, Chris Coll-Beswick, Saeed Hareb Al Darmaki, Raj Kapoor, and Ergi Sener.

Metafluence has also sparked great interest among notable VC funds and has been invested and backed by Sheesha Finance, BlueZilla, Kommunitas, Interstellar Ventures, and many others.

$METO IDO, Listings, and Holders Count

On January 24, 2022, Metafluence launched an IDO exclusively on BlueZilla, the leading launchpad network on Binance Smart Chain, which includes prominent launchpads such as BSCPad, NFTLaunch, and MetaVPad.

The IDO was completely sold out within hours of listing. The same day, $METO was listed on MEXC Global and PancakeSwap. Today, $METO is traded on four exchanges, of which three are popular CEXs: MEXC Global, Gate.io, Bitmart, and PancakeSwap. Listing on several exchanges has numerous benefits such as higher volume, wider network, higher liquidity, more credibility, further exposure, bigger community, enhanced sustainability, etc.

Furthermore, regarding the token holders’ amount, $METO currently has 13K+ holders on WEB3 wallets alone (excluding CEXs and staked tokens), meaning thousands of people worldwide believe in the Metafluence ecosystem & its native currency.

Our Partners

Throughout these six months, we’ve partnered with some of the leading projects in the industry, including SolChicks, SupraOracles, NFTb, and many others.

Each of these partnerships has its own goal to strengthen and benefit all the parties involved. Some, for example, are more focused on developing the technical side, others on the community and Metaverse integration sides, etc. The total partners count as of today is 13, and many more are on the way!

Metahut and Land Plot Private Sale, INO, and Public Sale

The early VCs who participated in the private sale of Metafluence City virtual properties were 2A Ventures, Pack Capital, and TUAL Group. The INO of Metahuts and Land Plots was held on five different launchpads on various dates, while the Public Sale of Metahuts and Land Plots was launched on June 27 on the designated Metafluence City Map.

Some remarkable platforms that held the INO were NFTb, Babylons, and Bitforex. Currently, we’re also developing our own NFT Marketplace, where users will be able to trade their Land Plots and Metahuts with each other. More updates on that will be shared soon.

PRODUCTS WE LAUNCHED

$METO Staking Model

On the 5th of March, we introduced the $METO Staking Model to our community members. This model offers 4 pools in total:

• NANO Pool (3 months)
• MICRO Pool (6 months)
• MACRO Pool (9 months)
• MEGA Pool (12 months)

Each pool has its own APY and capacity. Our largest staking pool, MEGA, has been filled as of July 20, with 20M $METO staked in it for 1 year. This is a strong indication of how strong and supportive our community is and has been throughout the project’s development. We’re also planning to launch new staking pools in the near future; more details are to be announced as we advance further.

Navigation Map

With the launch of the Public Sale of Metahuts and Land Plots on June 27, we’ve also introduced Metafluence City Navigation Map. This Map portrays the city’s plan, locations of the Land Plots, parks, City Center, Lake, Influencers and Investors’ Metahuts, and so on.

The map is also where the magic happens; everyone who wishes to can connect their MetaMask wallets to the website and acquire their desired properties in Metafluence City.

Virtual Properties: Land Plots and Metahuts

One of the foundational blocks of Metafluence City is virtual properties. And the launch of our first virtual properties, Land Plots and Metahuts, was celebrated enthusiastically by our community.

Land Plot is a virtual 100M x 100M spot within Metafluence City. The Land Plot is unique in that it allows users to purchase, own, and develop their virtual real estate. You will also be able to acquire a Metahut on your empty Land Plots in the future.

On the other hand, Metahut is a Metaverse residence consisting of various rooms such as the NFT Room, Event Room, and Shopping Room. Each room is designed for a specific purpose.

The Event Room is perfect for hosting parties or other events, while the NFT Room is ideal for those interested in collecting and trading non-fungible tokens. Finally, the Shopping Room is a great place to buy & sell virtual goods and to collaborate with brands.

Metafluence v1.0.0 (Alpha Testing)

On August 10, we will launch the Metafluence City Alpha Version. Users will be able to create their own personalized avatars and use them to explore the Metahuts in 3D, meaning they’ll be able to walk around the Metahuts, visit NFT, Event, and Shopping rooms, and appreciate each of these rooms’ beautiful details.

In addition, multiplayer voice chat functionality will also be available for users to communicate and socialize with each other.

Influencer Marketing

As an influencer-centric metaverse for everyone, one of the critical missions of Metafluence is to gather hundreds of influencers from all over the world under one roof. The logic behind Metafluence is simple yet powerful: If influencers with millions of fans come together under one roof in the Metaverse, then everyone may follow. Throughout these 6 months, we’ve been continuously running various Influencer Marketing activities, and so far, Metafluence has been covered by more than 500+ influencers worldwide!

100+ influencers with 50M+ audiences have already got their virtual properties in Metafluence City and became Metafluence citizens. Janice Hung, Youssef Bouba, Abdelouahed Benomar, Dallas Hart, Ray Diaz, Bader Mohammed, Lucas Clash On, Felipe Viktor, The Moon Carl, Salim Hamidi, Hamza Taiss, Mahmut Erdal, Jimi Jackson, Anyuta Rai are only a few of them.

The influencers in Metafluence City have also started creating their virtual avatars to prepare for the launch of the MVP (Demo version of Metafluence City and Metahuts). And we must say, the majority of them got super creative and built absolutely superb avatars that pretty much look like them!

Another step our influencers took towards expanding their metaverse presence is to start utilizing their NFT Rooms. Influencers such as Ozan Sihay, Salim Hamidi, and Janice Hung have already been showcasing their NFT collections in their Metahuts’ NFT Rooms.https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?type=text%2Fhtml&key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&schema=twitter&url=https%3A//twitter.com/metafluence/status/1540688911231373313&image=https%3A//i.embed.ly/1/image%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fabs.twimg.com%252Ferrors%252Flogo46x38.png%26key%3Da19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07

As a barbershop owner, you share the same goal with every other business out there: to make profits exponentially and become a big player in the industry. And as you might already know, your marketing strategy plays a huge role in achieving this. Speaking of which, influencer marketing is the current most powerful way to grow your brand awareness and achieve all of your marketing goals. Primarily, influencer marketing is all about paying social media celebs to promote your services. Popular product designers have been using it for years before now when saloons, barber shops, and other beauty service providers started hopping on the business trend. So, if you don’t know how to get started, read the step-by-step guide below.

STEP 1: Know Your Budget And Marketing Objectives

It may seem obvious that your marketing goal is to get your brand more popular and win more customers. But you want to be specific. Be specific about numbers and reaches and set realistic goals. Put it all into writing. Here’s an example; “I am spending $100 to generate 50 loyal customers from New York and 80 clients from Los Angeles, with each of them paying $30 per haircut”. This picture prevents the wastage of money and efforts. It also guides in the “choosing an influencer” stage explained below.

STEP 2: Find An Influencer

There are dozens of influencers out there: it’s like picking saloon furniture from IKEA. I digressed! The first step is to choose a “good” influencer: someone who posts high-quality content, has previous experience, is on target with your market/industry, and has worked with brands like you. With this in mind, head over to popular social media to create a list of 5-7 potential influencers that fit into your category. Hashtags like #sponsored and #ads will make your search easier on Instagram. Next, verify that the followers of your potential influencers are real. Often than not, when the followers on an influencer’s page are mostly commenting “very good”, “nice post” and similar short feel-good comments, those are likely bot-generated followers. Finally, make sure that your influencer has a large active following and engagement.

STEP 3: Reach Out To Them

At the end of step 2, you’ll probably wind up with a shorter list. Reach out to each influencer via messages, emails, websites, or through any medium that they’ve made available. Keep your first message short and don’t talk about money just yet. Ultimately, you want to find out if they’ve worked with a brand similar to you and disclose your interest in working with them.

STEP 4: Go Into The Details

After receiving a reply from them, it’s time to discuss how the relationship will go and how you want your campaign to work. The best platform to do this is via a video call but it’s not really a thing. Now, over the meeting, some important questions you should ask are how many videos and photos they will take for the campaign and if you’ll have copyrights to those materials for future advertisements. You should also talk about your marketing goals, what you’re offering them in return, your preferred timeline for the campaign, and any other important bit.

FINAL STEP: Launch, Study Results, And Learn

You both ought to have decided on a tracking system for the tracking of your ads’ performance. Though when using social media like Facebook and Instagram, they have a tracking system that shows important metrics and data about your ads. With such a system, you get to know the demographics of your potential clients and figure out your best and worst-performing ads. These info bits will come in handy when running other campaigns in the future.

In Conclusion

Whether improving your ROI or launching a new brand, influencer marketing is one of the most effective methods to hit your targets. But your success rate depends on doing it right. That’s why we’ve created this easy guide for people who run barbershops. You can also check this post to discover how to make your influencer marketing campaign a success during the holidays.

One of the most important elements of an effective video is music. Choosing the right music can make your influencer videos more engaging, entertaining, and play an important role in delivering your message to your audience. But you can’t exactly use that Macklemore track or Adele tune for your videos because the budget required to license top artists is beyond what you’ll be able to afford. 

Your best bet when it comes to obtaining music for your influencer videos is royalty free music. They offer several benefits that appeal to content creators. Continue reading to learn more about royalty free music.

What is Royalty Free Music?

Royalty free music is a type of music license that allows you to pay for a song ONCE and use the music as many times without additional payment. This is in contrast to “Rights Protected” music that requires you to make payments for additional usage of the music. 

The one-time payment of royalty free music offers a lot of convenience to many individuals and companies. It also makes royalty free music cheaper. The sound quality of royalty free music is top notch as long as you are using a reputable royalty free music provider.

By using royalty free music, your influencer videos will be free of any legal action in the future. While you do have to pay for royalty free music, it’s better than dealing with legal troubles in the future.

What Happens if You Use Copyrighted Music Without Permission?

If an artist or music label finds out you’ve been using their music without permission, one of the two things below can happen:

1. You receive a cease and desist letter telling you to take down the video and what will happen if you refuse. 
2. You get sued, which is rare for this type of infringement but nevertheless possible. 

If you intend to use copyrighted music without having a license for it on social media, your video might even be taken down during the upload process as big players like Youtube have robust Content ID for copyright protection. Music owners can take the following actions on Youtube videos that infringe their copyright:

• Mute the video.
• Runs ads in the video.  
• Block the video worldwide or in selected countries. 
• Prevent the video owner from monetizing the video. 

This can be problematic and even damage your channel’s revenue to zero if you aren’t careful in the music you choose. By using royalty free music, you won’t have to worry about getting three strikes and having your Youtube channel (and your hard work) deleted.

What Are the Costs of Royalty Free Music?

Royalty free music providers can offer annual or monthly subscriptions or sell individual song licenses. Subscription-based services allow you to use their entire catalog for the duration of your subscription while individual song licenses allow you to use any purchased song for as long as you want. 

Prices vary greatly when it comes to royalty free music. Subscriptions can range from $6 to $60 per month while the price of individual songs can range from $26 to over $50.

Common Uses for Royalty Free Music?

Royalty free music is popularly used for commercial uses such as advertisements, corporate video ads, and film projects. They are also used for influencer videos, school projects, infomercials, artistic performances, and so on. As long as you’ve acquired the rights to use a royalty free track, you can pretty much use it for anything. 

There are consequences to using music illegally. Royalty free music offers an affordable and legal way of including high-quality music in your videos. With the number of royalty-free songs available, the versatile content creator in you will have a blast selecting that perfect track for your videos.

Today, most companies rely on brochures to introduce themselves and their products or service.  The brochure is an important marketing tool that can help you in presenting your business message to customers. According to a report by the “Business Marketing Association”,  98% of the people who use the internet for product information end up buying something offline.  

For businesses, creating your own brochure design has never been this crucial; brochures work best in generating leads, transforming website visitors into customers, and boosting traffic on your company’s online store.

We’ve established why print media marketing is still relevant, but how? 

Apart from the conventional benefits of having printed leaflets/brochures like they’re tangible, easily shareable, and offer credibility; we’ve listed down 10 reasons why brochure design is still the best marketing tool you should utilize for your business.

Brochures Are A Future-Proof Marketing Tool

Brochure as a printed media marketing can be considered as a future-proof marketing tool because print isn’t going away any time soon.  In fact, according to NAPL’s 2011 Census of Print Publications, at least 1 billion book titles and 726 million newspapers were sold in the US alone which shows that print isn’t something we can neglect despite the rise of digital technology.

The average lifespan of a printed piece is about 2 years, meaning that businesses or organizations would need to constantly update their content or order new leaflets/brochures once the previous stock is out.  However, the same cannot be said for websites and social media which can be updated anytime at a minimal cost.

For this reason alone, brochures are still preferable over websites and other digital forms of marketing because customers won’t lose interest in your business if you keep on updating or refreshing your content.

Company Brochure Designs Are Easily Shareable

As mentioned in the beginning, brochures are best in generating leads, turning website visitors into customers, and boosting traffic on your company’s online store.  No matter how you put it, brochures will always be something worth passing around because they’re easily shareable with friends, colleagues, and family members by either mailing them or uploading images to social media sites.

Printed leaflets/brochures don’t need an internet connection or password just to view their contents which makes printed marketing materials more accessible than digital forms of promotions.  

Brochures don’t require batteries; no software installation is required; everything is provided ‘as is’ when given to your friend who will appreciate having something tangible to pass around without having to worry about batteries, charging, or technical problems.

A Brochure Layout Are Personalized Marketing Tools

Since there are several types of brochure printing services available online today, you’re probably wondering how does it affect your marketing?

Aside from an increase in brand awareness; companies are also using brochures as personalized marketing tools because they can be customized based on the target audience’s needs and preferences.  This tactic is best used for B2B companies who need to convince potential clients by presenting their key benefits via printed material.

The average cost of customizing a brochure ranges between $250-$500 which is not bad considering that it can help boost interaction with existing customers while attracting new ones at the same time.  

Printed leaflets/brochures can be personalized based on their target audience by choosing a free design template and inserting the company’s logo, contact number, and website address to further promote its brand identity.

Leaflet Design Improves Communication Effectiveness

Another reason why brochures are still relevant in business marketing is that they can improve communication effectiveness between companies and customers because printed pieces offer an idea of what to expect when actually visiting the store or opening their doors for sales.  

Brochures also make a good reference guide for customers who can use it while shopping which helps them decide faster whether a product is worth buying or not without having to visit the mall again.

Aside from making an impression about your company’s professionalism, brochures are also the best way to introduce employees who would be greeting customers at the store.  

Customers will feel safer knowing their concerns will be heard and accordingly addressed by people who are knowledgeable about the product they’re selling because it is much better than receiving random answers from someone pretending to know about your problems.

Brochure Design Increases User Experience

An increase in user experience is another benefit of using brochures as marketing tools for generating leads or capturing website visitors into email subscribers.  Brochures are often used to showcase products that are available in stores whether online or offline which consequently improves customer experience because it helps them decide faster if a given item is worth buying or not.  

Need to get your hands on some kick-ass brochure templates? Then do yourself a favor and go to Venngage, the hottest brochure maker app, and easily make your very own design now!

Brochures Are Perfect For First-Time Customers

Printed leaflets/brochures are one of the best lead generation tools for first-time customers which are often used as a personalized marketing tool to introduce them to your company’s products without having to personally attend or speak with them.  Since brochures are filled with useful information, they would feel more connected to your brand and will be more likely to become loyal customers after their first purchase.

Compared with other digital ads which only reach certain demographics, printed material offers more advantages.  Brochures can reach everyone regardless of age or geographical location because it has an infinite range of coverage potential which ultimately increases the chances of generating leads for your company.

Conclusion

There you have it, the biggest reasons why brochure design is still one of the best marketing tools for you to use. What are you waiting for? Start designing now!

After Christmas and New Year celebrations fizzled out, some may think that the holiday season has wrapped up, yet  Valentine’s Day is the next noteworthy holiday marketers can leverage to attract social media users, engage an existing audience, increase ROI and boost their sales.

Before breaking the process into pieces, digital and social media marketers should bear in mind that Valentine’s Day campaigns don’t have to be particularly targeted at couples. Valentine’s Day widen its wings beyond just about romantic relationships, it’s about showing that you care , and you need that day to use as an excuse to give gifts to your family, friends and someone you profoundly care for. As stated by the National Retail Federation people who are celebrating the holiday said they plan to spend an average $196.31, up 21 percent over last year’s previous record of $161.96. Spending is expected to total $27.4 billion, up 32 percent from last year’s record $20.7 billion. Ponder that!

Spread the Love

Facebook is the worthy pacesetter for launching a successful influencer marketing campaign. However, ignoring the significance of the other social media platforms such as Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Reddit etc. can cause you so much trouble even long before starting your campaign. This should be noted that being present and offering opportunities which your target audience will appreciate is the key to success. You will be the champion if you regularly interact and build relationships with existing customers while targeting prospective ones .

However, you may think that is it easy to engage with your customers through social media platforms? Well, when it comes to social media you don’t need to go off the deep end. All you have to do is share engrossing and diverse content as continually as possible.  Publishing appealing photo and video contents have tremendous benefits. They make your target audience remember you more effortlessly, because if they have a visual memory about a thing it will make them forget you more at a leisurely pace.

Let Them Know What You Do

Encouraging your customers into dialogue with you which will eventually boost your conversions and sales is one of the most essential ways to engage your customers. Certainly you shouldn’t underestimate the importance of call-to-actions. Moreover, don’t forget that you are talking to your customers on the occasion of Valentine’s Day.

• You love her/him every day, but make Feb 14 a special one.
• Your love deserves more than 30% off, order now!

Calls to action created to get an instant reaction from the target audience, and their sole purpose is to convert possible prospects into real customers and clients. If you use them accurately you will easily get new leads and prospects that will take your business to the next step.

Be Original

Whether you are a customer or brand you undoubtedly spend a lot of money in the name of love.  At least you should know that over the last year, there was a $1.6 billion increase in spending during Valentine’s Day. From the tiny box of jewelry and mesmerizing pieces clothing to dinner in a fancy and an attractively arranged bunch of flowers, people are throwing out the fortune for their significant others. Maybe that’s why Valentine’s day is a chance for brands to showcase and to persuade a customer to buy more of a product with romantic packaging. After all, we all want to feel cared and loved by the people we hold dear.

Metafluence, the metaverse designed specifically for influencers, has just closed $3 million in funding that was led by BlueZilla Network. Metafluence IDO was the first project incubated on BlueZilla’s brand-new MetaVPad, which is crafted specifically for metaverse projects. The project was also listed on other prominent Bluezilla platforms such as BSCPad and NFTLaunch. 

Among the notable backers of Metafluence, there are leading VCs, and partners such as BlueZilla, Sheesha Finance, Master Ventures, DCI Capital, CRT Capital, NFTb, Labs Group, OIG Capital, Decubate, DigiCorp Labs and others. 

As $METO is already launched and trading on CEX and DEX, all eyes turn to the Metafluence development team to watch how they turn the vision of the Metafluence metaverse into a thriving reality that empowers influencers.

What about Metahuts and Land Plots?

Influencer homes (Metahuts) and Land plots are the main architectural elements of the city and will serve as personalized spaces in the metaverse. Owning Metahuts or Land plots will provide benefits including discounts, rewards in form of NFTs or voting power within the ecosystem. While both, Metahuts and Land plots provide certain benefits, Metahuts are very limited in comparison and offer more value. Owners of the Land plots will be able to upgrade the plots to Metahuts over the time.

Metahuts are metaverse homes consisting of multi-purpose virtual rooms: Event Room, NFT Room, Shopping Room, and others. In terms of the features, Metahuts will have more or less rooms based on influencers’ SM audience size, however, any Metahut features or assets, including the rooms can be obtained with an additional expense or upgrades. The rooms are personalized spaces within Metahuts, and they will allow influencers to better monetize their SM influence, engage closely with their audience and brands in the Metafluence ecosystem. 

Beginning of the exciting journey 

 “This is just the beginning. There are a lot of exciting features and development on our short-term roadmap, including Staking, Land and Metahuts sale, launch of MVP, and many more. We are very ambitious and would love to have you all on that journey with us.” -, Elvin Aziyev. 

Metafluence has already seen traditional influencers, some of the biggest crypto enthusiasts, and blockchain influencers announce their involvement or plans to join the Metafluence metaverse. Influencers such as Moon Carl and Evan Luthra are amongst the plethora of hot influencers already showing interest and joining the Metafluence platform.

Metahuts are metaverse homes consisting of multi-purpose virtual rooms: Event Room, NFT Room, Shopping Room, and others. In terms of the features, Metahuts will have more or less rooms based on influencers’ SM audience size, however, any Metahut features or assets, including the rooms can be obtained with an additional expense or upgrades. The rooms are personalized spaces within Metahuts, and they will allow influencers to better monetize their SM influence, engage closely with their audience and brands in the Metafluence ecosystem. The Metahut rooms are as distinct as follows:

NFT Room will allow influencers to showcase or sell NFTs that they created or own.

Event Room will allow influencers to hold public, private or premium events with their audience. In-room events can be held in collaboration with other influencers.

Shopping Room is a special place where hosts can set up their own marketplace for digital and physical products and collaborate with brands through sponsorships.

Game Room will allow influencers to display their game collection, make recommendations, and sell certain games through affiliate partnerships. Visitors will be able to see and download the games from the official sources.

Crypto Room will allow influencers to display and support their favorite crypto projects.

Custom Room is a solution (usually for bigger influencers or celebrities) per request and this type of rooms can be constructed by the Metafluence team.

At the early stages, a limited number of Metahuts and Land plots will be granted to influencers and early adopters, and this campaign specifically aims to onboard our most loyal community members.

We have a tremendous community of 250k+ people across all of our channels, and once again, we would like to express our immense gratitude towards our community and wish you all the best!
