  2. ICO Walkthrough. The Components of Successful ICO Development    At ​ICOdevelopers​, we often get such requests from our clients as ‘consult me on how to start ICO, please’ or ‘I     want to launch an ICO campaign. What should I do and     how?’. Well, we decided not to reinvent the wheel and   collaborated with the Head of Business Development department of friendly software development agency TECSYNT Solutions – ​Julia Kurganova​. One of her areas of expertise is Blockchain and ICO Strategy development,   which is why we conducted a round table together in     order to respond our clients properly.        The first question always would be – where should you start. The ICO development is a hot                 topic these days but do you really know what an ICO means? No or not really? So, for those                   who can’t answer this questions here will be your starting point in the ICO Walkthrough               we’ve prepared for you.                                                                                                                                                                                                            Stage 1. Discovery Phase. Pre-ICO   This step includes thoroughbusinessandin-depthmarketinganalysisthatwillhelptoanswer             isyourICOdevelopmentideasuitableforyourbusiness?LaunchingsuccessfulICOcampaign               is hard enough but it’s much harder when you dive in the token sales without preparations.                 You can spend tons of time and money on an ICO campaign that will fail in drawing enough                     investments.    A startup owner should keep in mind that ICO isn’t a tool for just any business. First and                 foremost, your crypto tokens must generate actualvaluefortheusers.Issuingacoinoffering             just to become rich at the expense of your contributors won’t be greeted positively. The key                                                                                                                                   https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  3. principles of professional cryptocurrency market are authenticity and transparency. So,         before declaring the crowdsale of tokens on some ICO portal, you should develop a strong               strategy and consider if you even should conduct the sale at all.    So, how to decide whether you should issue an ICO campaign or not? The decision depends                 on whether your cryptocurrency tokens are integratable into your original product in the             most meaningful way. If it’s just coins for future exchange trading, it practically guarantees                 that your ICO campaign won’t receive high interest from crowdfunders. And you risk being               left outside the race after spending all your budget on the initially unprofitable campaign.     Summing it up, before you decide to invest in ICO development make sure that your               decentralized tokens are able to increase the value ofyouroriginalproduct.Forthispurpose               ask a trusted tech team to walk you through the professional discovery phase hand-in-hand                   that will result in a whitepaper.                                                                                                                                 Stage 2. ICO Development Pro Tips for Successful White Paper  On the pre-ICO stage, the White Paper is a critical component of your business strategy. A                   bad document usually brings to nothing all your business efforts. So, pay attention to the               details and keep in mind that your White Paper should be crystal clear and plainly explain                 such things:     – What’s your main idea and why do you need a fundraising?  – How will you build your crypto tokens?  – How the token sales and redemption will be structured?  – Outlined concept of why your idea will change the world?   – The assessment of economic and data security risks    This information could be 10 or 100 pages long, it’s up to the team you hire for theresearch                 phase. We also recommend hiring professional to translate the White Paper into multiple                                                                                               https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  4. languages. It’ll help you to outreachtheworldandattractmoreattentiontoyourproject.The                 cost of this ICO development stage would be around $15,000– $20,000.                     Typical structure of good White Paper document will look like this: Background  Describe your management team, key team members and their  level of experience. Tell how the project started.  General Information  Market description, how the Blockchain can be applied to it.  Market and Business  Analysis   Deep analysis that will outline market growth potential and  research of all existing competitors.  Product’s Description  What do you actually plan on selling to investors and what is the  duration of the offering.  Token/Coin Outline   Which form and pricing mechanisms will your product have and  the number of tokens or coins that will be issued.   Technical Details   What technology stack will be used for an ICO development,           along with more detailed product description, stated long-term         value of each coin, various graphics, charts and calculations.                    Terms of Use  How and where your product can be used.  Pre-ICO rules   Clear terms and conditions that would be applied to investors.  Development Roadmap  Show your buyers what’s donetothedateandwhatneedstobe             done after sale stage. Picture the milestones and timeline that           are planned for whole development process.                          Business Plan  Strategic budget – how much money will be spent and on what  purposes.  https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  5. Profits  Show what benefits do you offer and which rights will be           provided to the token/coin holders.               Basic Conclusions      Here is an example – ​Telegram ICO white paper​. Look closely at the section that describes the actual value of their tokens.                                   Stage 3. Gather Up Reliable ICO Development Team  Launching success head-ondependsonateamyouhirenotonlyforconductingawhitepaper             and designing a website. First of all, you must have team members who know how to write                 you reliable Smart Contracts and developcryptocurrencywallets.So,youshouldavoidhiring             shady developers or companies and choose the quality over the price of software           development.    Taking into account the launching success of famous ICO campaigns, we can say that             communicating within a team, its goals and the level of investors’ safety are the top 3 issues               that tend hold the interest of target audience. Therefore, your team must have strong               connection withinvestors–seamlesscommunicationiscritical.Timezonesdifference,clearly           determinedgoalsandconstantclientsupportalsomatternotjustbefore,butduringandafter             ICO. Every investor chooses the best and open-up team behind the ICO project he or she               plan contributing to.     To sum it up, all your major team members must have openly available social media profiles                   with their face pictures (preferably Linkedin) so any potential investor couldcheckthemout.             And your team’s reputation must be crystal clear.                                                                                                                                                                                                         Stage 4. Outreach your investors. Start marketing your ICO development   https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  6. Any cryptocurrency business is only successful as much as its marketing campaign. So, it’s           very important that you create not only a media hype but a ​FOMO (fear of missing out) as well. FOMO would allowtoattracthighernumberofinvestorsandconductaveryimpressive               funding. Investing in PR and marketing stage is always wise if you want to raise even more                 money.     Boost your ICO white paper on relevant web platforms and the crypto community. Like               Pareto ICO – real-time peer-to-peer content marketplace and actionable intelligence           platform for investors. Also, it’s always a plus for your marketing campaign if you involve               certain Blockchain partner that is known on the market topromoteyourproject.Inthiscase,               your investors will feel safer while contributing to your ICO development.    In addition, try to involve all possible marketing resources to let people know about your               brand new ICO project. Conduct strong advertising campaign on following social platforms:    - Reddit  – Top listing ICO portals  - Quora   - LinkedIn groups  - Twitter  - Facebook groups  - Hacker News, Indie Hackers and Medium journals (Hacker Noon, Startups & Venture Capital), etc.    Aside from this, you’ll need your ownbeautifullydesignedandfastwebsitewithallimportant               information about your ICO development and tokens sale. In addition to hosting server for           fundraising and tokens distribution, this optimized site must have following sections:      ● Contacts and social profiles with high-quality photos and short biographies, – yours and your  team members.  ● Technical Documentation: Privacy Terms, Terms of use, Whitepaper.  ● Partners or advisors, maybe reference from them or your existing clients.                                                                                                                                                                                                      https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  7. ● Product and pre-ICO Description.  ● A subscription form  ● Project Roadmap  ● Press Kit and News from ICO industry   ● A video presentation of your pre-ICO (or photos, links to publications about your product,  maybe speeches).  ● Product’s beta preview if it’s ready     Also, don’t neglect the email marketing. It allows spending very little time and money but               outreach wider number of investors and media personas. You send emails to everyone who             can potentially be willing to invest in your ICO and then maintain the connection with those                 people who responded to you positively. After that, keep the schedule for your email             marketing:     – Send your clients weekly news  – Notify them about the investment date (a month, a week, a day and five minutes before the ICO  start).  – Provide security alerts and various links to helpful how-to guides.    But the most important thing – you must ensure your investors’ safety and let them know                 that they will be protected while participating in your funding round. For example, use the             multi-signature escrow wallet to gather up the names of all key holders toannouncethemto             the public. In your marketing campaign, define all the terms and conditions for investors and             propose some premium discounts for early investors.                                                                                                                                           Stage 5. Launching Success of ICO development  Here come the launch day and post-ICO support. After your tokens are sold and the               fundraising is finished, it’s time for your developers to prepare and launchyourproject.Your               investors are waiting for tangible results and that same actual value of your tokens/coinswe               talked about earlier. In case of an emergency, also make sure that there is an established                                                                                 https://icodevelopers.co  Blockchain development and consulting company, 2017-2018   

  8. procedure for the returning of the funds to your contributors – if you fail to reach the goals                 and the would be a need to close the campaign back.     Make sure that your ICO is getting positive attention on platforms (like ​Trusted Tech Team Reviews​). Your contributors must see that your companyisdoingwellandusersaresatisfied             with software provided by your development team.
