I said 25k for a pin to GR last night during the foundry chat. I wholely agree this is a brilliant use of the pin. You've done good with this one sigs.
I had also noticed since I started pinning posts (like the daily, and one themed one) engagement on those posts has seen a huge uptick. Now perhaps it's just a case of those particular discussions were going to get engaged with anyway. Or that perhaps the continual engagement with my customers is starting to generate returning people. Or a combination of all of them. But since people rarely sort by recent. The pin has been really valuable to me a an owner and ive only really been experimenting with this idea a couple days. Even without the post itself getting zapped, the engagement gives comment fees, zaps on replies etc. which is organic growth and is much more sustainable than relying upon the actual post to be zapped.
I think 25k is plenty for the pin. A normal 25k boost would probably only keep that post in view for maybe a day. But the pin keeps it there until the pins removed.
I'm going to experiment with the hiring of pins by offering it out to artists on self promotion Sunday posts for 25k to hopefully help people find their music.
One weeks prime exposure for wavlinks or Spotify links or SoundCloud etc etc for new EP drops or albums or whatever... Hell if we got anyone developing their own guitar FX pedals or something like that. Run an ad with the pin.
Exactly. What are you thinking? 25k for one week depending on position (1,2,or 3)?
On another note. For my booksandarticles territory I'm trying a writing contest. I thought of you. Do you think there would be enough interest to have original artists participate in contests, like best song lyrics, best music video, etc?

I'd not got that far down in my thought process yet 🤔 perhaps I could do 25k for the week or even 5k a day (pay 25k get the weekend free ;) ). A pin is a pin I hadn't really thought too heavily about 1,2,3 on the pins. I wouldn't want to crowd it too much.
I am however cautious to remind myself that although someone is paying for a pin I have and will use the pins for my own content such as the daily. Just to ensure that the current days daily is easily accessible. Any themed stuff I do I'd also pin. But I am conscious that me doing that may rub people up the wrong way if they're paying for it. ...
Perhaps I look at the 1,2,3 model and make the paid pin 1 and the territory pins 2,3.
I think I'd also run only one paid pin at a time. So as not to split the attention off of the paid pin too much. If it's being sold off as a product I hope to be able to provide a product to its most useful extent.
As for the competition I hadn't really considered using that as an idea. But I think it's a great one. Some vocalists have nothing to say or struggle to write and could utilise bounties to have lyrics written for them. A competition I think is something to look into as SN itself grows. I'm unsure if as it stands there's enough individual artists on SN to take place in a comp for writing lyrics or making music videos or anything like that just yet. But I do hope in the future that really could be something that ~Music does.
This does spark some ideas in my head about perhaps utilising the territory details post to give examples of different post types and how to potentially use them. Eg. A bounty post to attract a vocalist to provide vocals to your track. Or a producer to help produce something you've been working on. I'll have to think hard on that.
Cheers sigs, you've made my brain need to go to work. Got a lot to dive into now.
