Well, I wouldn't mind to see that ad, if it's done tastefully. It's just, I would also think that you are not capable to run a real ad campaign, which in turn would make me loose trust in your business. If you can't run ads, what else is running wrong in your shop? Thus then never consider your product at all, ever.
Even this question should be done anonymously, IMHO, now you just publicly announced that you don't know what you are doing in terms of PR and marketing for your cool product.
- dherault 4y agoActually I have a solid plan. I just wondered if including my OSS project in it was a good move. Thanks for the answer.
- groffee 4y ago> I would also think that you are not capable to run a real ad campaign That seems like a hell of a leap. There's nothing wrong with bringing attention to your other projects, especially at zero cost.
- Torwald 4y agoIt's not a leap at all. If you are knowledgeable in advertising you wouldn't spend the time for such erratic behaviour, for various reasons. For instance, you can't see the overlap of people who work on the OSS code and those making the buying decisions for the commercial product. BTW, it doesn't come "at zero cost" as you say. You are skewing a very important data point in advertising, the first touch point in the customer journey.
