Next four weeks: Community engagement
The next four weeks, I am going to focus on talking to people. I have 800 real people who followed my Twitter bot. I have 50 real people who signed up to my email news letter. I have hundreds of unique people who have come to my website and looked at stuff.
Im starting out by reaching out to the twitter people. I want to get 10 people who will champion all the work I do. I want to find 2 really well known (70k+ social media followers) graffiti/street artists who will experiment using my service.
In the next four weeks, I will do the following:
- Develop my personal brand
- Codify my technique for reaching out to and acquiring artists champions
- Establish a strong and growing list of art curators who will champion my work
- Launch

End of day reflection
I circulated my prototype on Reddit’s /r/graffiti today. I didnt get any upvotes, but I believe I got traffic from the site. I wasn’t able to get Google Analytics to register my new site, so I didnt get any hard numbers.
Based on my posts in /r/graffiti, I am starting to believe the audience is not inline with what I am trying to do. They are a passive photo browsing group. I am looking for a group who will actively engage with my product.
Without analytics, I do see a positive level of engagement from users. Based on the leaderboard activity, I can see that at least 8 people were using the service. Additionally, it looks like they were engaged and browsing pages.
The leaderboard shows that people have scores above 5, which means they submitted at least 5 answers and saw at least 5 images. This is a positive reflection on engagement.
