Dragon Fam needs to make a model that each youngster worldwide will know. Something like Pokemon, Spongebob, or How to Train Your Dragon.
Of course, it’s a protracted approach to get there, and you’ll’t get there by simply dreaming. So at the moment, we’d like to speak in regards to the plan for a way Dragon Fam might get there.
The journey doesn’t begin on the Mint. The actual work will begin after that. And we’ll present you what this can seem like, however first, check out these two footage:
Amazon is the world’s third largest search engine, after Google and YouTube, and the primary for individuals on the lookout for a particular product.
This is essential and can form their future. As a mission, they gained’t have to fret about how the NFT and crypto markets will change sooner or later.
Amazon is nice as a result of you possibly can concurrently become profitable and attain hundreds of thousands. If you wish to construct a model, it’s a win-win-win scenario.
Since they’ve been engaged on the Amazon algorithm for seven years (extra on that later), it’s straightforward to be seen by hundreds of thousands of individuals.
About Halk Past
From 2015 to the top of 2020, Halk.eth was a blogger on the web after which an creator and guide designer.
Between 2015 and 2020, he wrote almost 1300 books (sure, truly that many). Most of them had been coloring books, however in contrast to at the moment, he didn’t make all the photographs himself.
Halk purchased them cheaply from different artists or used inventory pictures, turned them right into a coloring guide, and self-published it on Amazon.
Especially at the beginning, he cared extra about amount than high quality as a result of he needed to be taught the entire recreation by doing it.
Halk needed to be taught the algorithm and work out what works and doesn’t. So, he needed to work with prospects and see what they preferred and didn’t like about him. It’s taken numerous tries to have the ability to write good books.
This is the German model of his fantasy guide collection about magic, adventures, friendship, and dragons:
As you possibly can see, he has discovered rather a lot about easy methods to be seen on Amazon, easy methods to attain readers and other people naturally, and what they like over the previous few years.
Now he needs to make use of what he has discovered to work even tougher for Dragon Fam. Because he by no means had such a fantastic and good group of individuals as you.
Data
Halk didn’t actually have a web site or an electronic mail checklist. He simply put the books on Amazon and let the algorithm handle the remainder. Here are some numbers from the previous couple of years:
One hundred six thousand 600 eighty-five individuals purchased his books primarily based on the Amazon algorithm alone. You can borrow books with Kindle Unlimited, or Amazon Prime isn’t even right here.
He thinks that about 150,000 individuals purchased his books as an entire. He set his margin so low that he didn’t even make a greenback per guide. Most of that cash went to pay for his dwelling bills, however an important factor is that 150,000 individuals purchased his books.
And that was earlier than they’d any mates. Without planning to construct a long-lasting model.
Now that Halk has introduced you into his world, let’s get right down to enterprise and talk about easy methods to win. As you possibly can see, you possibly can naturally attain individuals on Amazon and even become profitable from it (in contrast to with Google or YouTube adverts, the place you need to pay to achieve individuals, although he’ll try this, too!)
Halk has already began making a coloring guide and a guide of adventures for Dragon Fam. The journey guide can also be for youths, however they need to have the ability to learn independently (10+).
He can even make illustrated books for youths sooner or later. But that’s not all. After he makes a Dragon Fam world, different authors can write books, make merchandise, and so on., on this world.
On the second and final pages of every guide, he talks about his superb Discord neighborhood and makes use of a QR code to ask the mother and father of the kids to hitch his Discord.
As lengthy as they’ve a Dragon NFT, Halk will give them a reduction on all Dragon Fam merchandise. He will ask them to observe him on Twitter. If children like Dragon Fam, their mother and father will prefer it too.
If you want that, then remember to learn the next:
Halk offered 150,000 books regardless that he didn’t have a neighborhood. Since he already has a neighborhood they usually may help him make the primary gross sales, which tells the algorithm that folks wish to purchase his books, this may very well be large!
If the neighborhood additionally leaves trustworthy critiques, telling the algorithm that they care in regards to the books and suggest them, Amazon will rank our books larger and better.
Here are Halk’s ideas:
He didn’t have a neighborhood, a base, a good suggestion nearly as good as Dragon Fam, or cash to promote.
Also, he has solely finished enterprise in Europe, particularly Germany, a a lot smaller market than the US, the place he would begin this time.
But in fact, he would additionally make issues for the entire world, and he wouldn’t should, for instance, translate the guide into German.
Halk thinks that if he places all of this stuff collectively, he can attain a minimum of 1 million individuals yearly. A million individuals will maintain certainly one of his books and see a QR code for his Discord server.
And saying that’s simply being adverse in the event that they solely have reasonable success. Halk thinks that rather more is feasible, although.
And the excellent news doesn’t cease there!
Since Halk already has a giant neighborhood and numerous followers, it could be foolish for publishers with much more data, large electronic mail lists, and connections to bookstores and brokers to not work with them.
(He might nonetheless self-publish as a Plan B, and he would nonetheless be very profitable even when he did!) But Halk thinks that with skilled publishers, he might develop in a short time.
A writer would print books on higher paper than Amazon, they usually might promote their books each on Amazon and in shops like Walmart. Publishers maintain electronic mail lists of greater than 200,000 readers sorted by class.
Imagine if his guide was proven to 200,000 mother and father, who all purchased it on the spot. On Amazon, he would go straight to web page 1. That’s loopy!
What do you assume occurs to 3333 or 6666 NFTs when a whole bunch of 1000’s or hundreds of thousands of oldsters desire a Dragon Fam NFT first as a result of they just like the model or wish to get discounted Dragon Fam garments, books, or toys for his or her children?
Bonus: All of this could be simply the beginning. When they’ve extra money sooner or later, they’ll have the ability to work with animation studios to make their anime for YouTube.
This will strengthen the model and produce extra individuals into its ecosystem. (But anime is dear; a full collection with 10–20 episodes can simply price 2 million {dollars} or extra.)
Halk can even work with recreation builders to make apps for smartphones. Each app has its search engine, which can assist the model.
As you possibly can see, there are lots of methods to achieve individuals even with out promoting, which he can even take into consideration.

A “rug” is when individuals put money into a mission that fails shortly or doesn’t observe its plans (or “roadmap”). They have all had rugs on each side and are sick of it. Dragon Fam determined to start out their mission due to this.

That’s the principle motive why the founders and moderators labored nicely collectively. They wished to construct one thing that might final and maintain getting higher!
Something that may be right here for a era or a lifetime, not only for two months after Mint! And that’s what they wish to do. Halk thinks that their dragons are cute and totally different and that they may very well be a fantastic model for real-world merchandise.

They can use this model to make something they need, like coloring books, youngsters’s books, comics, merchandise, or the rest the neighborhood needs. They wish to construct this for his or her children and different NFT followers.
Dragons have many alternative sides. They could be cute, however they’ll additionally spit fireplace. Dragons won’t solely be cute little issues within the NFT area, however additionally they wish to assist change the system! They are finished with thieves and individuals who need cash for no motive.
They wish to discover them, hunt them down, and finally eliminate them by setting a better normal. Most of the individuals on their crew are over 30 years previous.
They perceive the worth of cash, however they don’t want cash or issues to indicate off to their younger mates or on social media.
