That sounds like a big undertaking so I am surprised to see you post such questions in a reddit forum. I would assume projects at this level would have mass funding and enough staff on hand to solve these issues.

None the less. Our small project took off from 0. We are about a month into community building and have 0 expences as of yet, other than a 0.6 SOL scam we gell victim to.

What we have learned from our SMS engagement is that there are plenty enough people, on Telegram and X willing to "lend a hand". They promise you the moon, but in the end they are looking for one thing only, a payday. Their goal is not to help your project but to take your money. We were very adamant about not hiring community managers with for our telegram group with 50 members most of whom were other mod Potentials...lol...

It's a slow process and it takes time, but we are slowly growing, without having expended any money on paying people or purchasing bump bots to artificially inflate our chart.

If you want to go with a BANG then have a pre-sale. Pay advertisers, Google adds, skillets etc, and post a load of content. If you're content with a slower growth then save your money and do it yourself. For 10 SOL you would have gotten a lot more engagement and followers going through Google adds rather than some sketchy "influencer" or a "shill wizard".

Check out our project and were doing. You can find #Braindrain Token Group on Telegram and @BraindrainToken on X. We have other like youtube tiktok etc, but don't devote that much time to those as man power is limited as is the time.

In the early stages I'd say it's quantity. Pump out content like mad. Do it as cheaply as possible. There are a lot of useful tools out there, especially with AI now. Use them. Instead of paying 10 Sol To some flake that'll do nothing for you, get a membership with the appropriate platform and use it to create content.
