Collection: step by step plan
Disintar.ioStage 0 - Internal work
You've heard an inner desire to create your own NFT collection! Before you start creating, you should think a little:
• Define your personal goal - why do you need this project?
• Determine the purpose of the project - why do others need your project?
• Conduct a preliminary research - what do I need to do?
• Assess competencies - which of these can I already + what and who do I lack?
Stage 1 - Development of white paper
Goals are set, motivations are found, competitors are studied. Now you can begin to describe the main concept. At this stage, it is important to remember about your resources and honestly assess your capabilities. Start with the defining the ideological details of your future collection:
• Concept and uniqueness
• Collection Size
• NFT cost
• NFT rarity system
• Utility
• Project Economics
• Stages of NFT implementation (airdrop / presale / white list?)
• Road map
Stage 2 - Visual concept
The next step is to think about the outer part of the collection:
• Choice: 2D / 3D / pixels / other format
• Prototyping
• NFT / attribute rendering, collection generation
Stage 3 - Community and Marketing
Who is your target audience? How to collect and keep it in one place? How to make people fall in love with your project? This is one of the most important steps, don't skip it :
• Creation of social networks / website
• Content strategy
• Development of tone of voice
• Growing a community (through influencers / advertising / collaborations)
• Community management
• Activity in the NFT community, participation in events and AMA sessions
Stage 4 - Implementation of NFT
Time to turn arts into NFTs:
• Airdrops, presales, white list
On TON there is a practice of conducting pre-sales in Telegram (through bots). You rarely see this on other blockchains.
An alternative (more reliable option) is to create a white list. People on the white list get access to the purchase earlier than others and at a more attractive price. The mechanics differs from the pre-sale through the bot: it is more reliable. The probability of getting on the scam decreases, since NFTs are immediately bought on the blockchain.
• Mint solution: your own smart contract / mint through the marketplace
• Choosing a marketplace (depends on the goals of the project)
Marketplace should be chosen based on what functionality you need. For example, Disintar is perfect for you if you are looking for a platform where you can host your collection without special technical knowledge. On Disintar, you can post not only NFT images, but also video, audio, or animated works. We are ready to implement custom solutions, write special smart contracts for your ideas.
Also with the help of Disintar you can also send messages to buyers in Telegram (for example, an invitation to join a private chat), use profile rooms to promote collections - and much more! :)
