We've just published a timeline of online advertising that we've been working on here: https://oko.uk/blog/the-history-of-online-advertising
We thought some of you good people at /r/adops might find it interesting. If anyone has ideas for other milestones that should be added we'd love to hear them.
u/pagancatlola (Ρ 4) I am delighted with the card, especially the fake history about the fish mill! Your fantasy based on engineering knowledge has created a wonderful invention! I understand how this should work and appreciate your wit :)
Also thanks for the three vintage advertising cards. I like this!
Iβve previously posted this idea here, but it might have been bad timing due to the #CancelNetflix event that everyone was focused on. Now that that is over, Iβm bringing this up again to try to convince you guys that it is the perfect way to continue, sustain and even expand this movement to renew The OA.
Build a Self-Sustaining Campaign Fund
The idea is simple. We utilize Patreon to fund a massive and continuous advertising campaign the likes of which has never been seen before. We do this by relying on fans of the show (all of us here) to subscribe to monthly automated donations of varying sizes. These monthly donations will form the backbone of a self-sustaining advertising campaign that will continue until we reach our goal of renewal.
The key point here is the regular income Patreon generates through the subscription model. This allows the campaign to run continuously, so we donβt have to convince supporters to donate each time we do something. It will be automated and always supply us with fresh financial resources to continue the campaign.
Increase Viewership Through Paid Ads
The campaign itself can start small depending on the number of initial subscribers by targeting online only through paid advertising on social media and other websites. But that is just the beginning stages. As we build up our Patreon subscriber count over time, the campaign can be scaled up to support higher cost items like paid advertising through TV commercials that we develop. The ultimate goal of this ad campaign is to increase viewership of The OA by reaching new people who were not previously aware of it.
Scale up Subscriber Count & Donations
Imagine if we started this operation by recruiting 5,000 fans from this community to donate at least $20 per month. That is $100k per month that could be invested in advertising this show. But whatever number of subscribers we initially receive, it will pale in comparison to what we can scale up to over time. We currently have a petition with over 80k signatures on it, so 5,000 initial subscribers could easily turn into 20k or more over time. 20k at $20 would generate $400k per month! Just think about the level of influence we would have with that kind of funding and it can all be achieved by sharing the responsibility through small automated donations every month.
In order to achieve numbers like this, some **prerequ

> After initially saying the feature would take a few months to build, Facebook told the tech site Recode in December that it was "Taking longer than we initially had thought," citing technical obstacles.
> BuzzFeed's Ryan Mac wrote a story headlined, "Mark Zuckerberg promised a clear history tool almost a year ago. Where is it?" Mac's reporting suggested that the project was a fantasy at the time it was proposed, and may have never really gotten off the ground.
> On Tuesday Facebook gave a strong indication that "Clear history" really is coming-and it attached a more credible timetable.
> The implication of my third question above-"Really??"-is that Facebook might indeed release a feature called "Clear history," yet design it in such a way that it's either ineffectual or unlikely to be broadly used.
> That still might turn out to be the case with "Clear history." But Wehner's statement makes it seem more likely that this is a feature Facebook expects people to actually use-perhaps because they'll actually be able to find it.
> Not because Facebook losing out on some profits is a good thing in itself-but because it would mean that the feature is actually doing what Facebook promised it would.
