Introducing Early - Web3 growth hacking on TON
In the rapidly evolving TON Ecosystem, Early emerges as a beacon of innovation. It’s a growth hacking platform developed through a collaboration between the TON Foundation Accelerator and Open Builders, designed to propel early-stage Web3 projects from concept to reality. Early aims to become the go-to-market strategy for projects on TON, fostering sustainable growth and community-driven success.
Why Early?
Early leverages the @community_bot’s infrastructure to connect new TON projects with an audience of over 7.5 million users of the @community_bot platform. Its mission is to facilitate project launches and attract early users through incentives, setting it apart as a unique growth hacking tool.
The solution to Web3's challenges
Launching a Web3 project comes with its set of hurdles: lack of resources, audience, and strategic guidance. Early addresses these issues by fostering community engagement, rewarding task completion, and ensuring a fair system of token distribution which values tangible contribution over financial input.
It's a platform where enthusiasts find projects they're passionate about supporting, and founders meet their first wave of contributors. Early's model of exchanging effort for equity introduces a new era of growth, where early adopters take no risk, investing only their time.
For more details, check out this blog post and be Early.
