NFT Success Stories | From Three Failed Launch Attempts to $3M

My second NFT launch attempt was a series of NFTs tied to a virtual reality game. This time, I focused on building a community, but I made a critical mistake: I chose a blockchain platform that was popular but didn’t align with my project’s needs. The high transaction fees and slow transaction times turned off potential buyers, and the project failed to gain traction.

For my second project, I decided to try a different approach. I turned to marketing agencies, who flooded my inbox with emails promising to help sell out my collection. One agency even flew three of their members over to see me to discuss how they would ensure the success of my collection. Their initial bill was $50k, but gradually the cost rose to $200k as more and more was needed to “ensure” in their words NFT success”. They spoke a very impressive and slick game with promising reports, stats and co called community feedback, but unfortunately, they were absolute charlatans. They insinuated they had a huge agency with many team members, well established and experts in the space. Their entire company consisted of the three guys that came to see me, again they preyed on my ambitions and dreams, leaving me with 400 whitelist spots filled and a sick feeling in my stomach. They are the worst type of businesses, and there are hundreds of agencies like this. They simply want big cheques upfront with no real evidence or foundation in what they do.

The 3^rd Attempt: Underestimating Marketing

My third NFT launch was a little better. I had a clearer vision and a more compelling narrative. However, I made another critical mistake: I underestimated the importance of marketing. I thought that if I built a great product, people would naturally come. But in the crowded NFT market, visibility is key. Without a solid marketing strategy, my project got lost in the noise.

After three failed attempts, I was ready to give up. But then, I came across a range of services that seemed to address all the areas where I had stumbled. They offered help with everything from creating a compelling narrative and choosing the right blockchain platform, to setting up NFT smart contracts and promoting the NFTs.

With their guidance, I was able to create a compelling story for my NFT project, one that resonated with my target audience. They helped me understand the importance of choosing the right blockchain platform, one that aligned with my project’s vision and offered the best benefits for my customers. They also helped me set up smart contracts that added value to my NFTs and made them more attractive to buyers.

The Final Push My 4^th Attempt: ANSG Why Oh Why Didn’t I Find You Sooner

For my 4^th attempt, I found ANSG. They were different. They didn’t demand huge upfront bills. They started with a modest $5k-$6k. They are real people I met all their team, did massive amounts of due diligence as you can imagine, in speaking to their clients, understanding their role and how they can assist and really got to know their team. They were well connected and provided results. As I saw success, of course I spent more, but their pay-as-you-go model really highlighted the strength and depth of their service. With ANSG’s help, 65% of my collection sold, an NFT success story at last.

Promoting my NFTs was another area where I saw a significant improvement. With their help, I was able to establish social media channels, reach out to NFT influencers, run giveaways, and engage with the community. They also helped me create a professional website and promotional content that got people excited about my NFTs.

But perhaps the most important thing was the help I received in creating a fair NFT drop for my customers. They helped me set up a system that gave everyone an equal chance to participate, avoiding the common pitfalls of high initial wealth concentration and gas bidding wars. This not only made my NFT launch fairer but also built trust with my customers and fostered a sense of community around my project.

All the pain and sleepless nights, stress, money spent allowed me to arrive at this moment, I do regret the time I wasted, but I hope this helps others look out for major red flags when looking to build out and sell their collections. Always speak to past clients, ask to see analytics, check, recheck, and check again!

Thanks to the guidance and services I received from ANSG, my fourth NFT launch was a resounding success. I went from three failed attempts to a multimillion-dollar success. But more than the financial success, what I’m most proud of is the community I’ve built around my project. I’ve created something that people value, something that brings them joy and excitement. And that, to me, is the true measure of success.
