Luke Neumann: Of course! We have worked with some amazing companies like Amazon, National Geographic, Tesla, Google, BBC, Samsung, TCL, Adobe, Microsoft, Panasonic, DJI, and many more! These companies have used our content because all of our creators have spent years (and even decades) working on their craft!
Q: One of the things that got my attention is that SAVAGE call itself that is the first “ carbon-neutral” platform, so I really don’t get what do you mean with it, so can you explain us ?
Luke Neumann: SAVAGE is 100% carbon-neutral, meaning all of the energy used within our marketplace to process transactions will be removed or cancelled out. Resulting in net zero emmisions. By building on Polygon (MATIC) we consume much less energy per transaction than PoW marketplaces. Being carbon-neutral is crucial for our entire team, the marketplace but most importantly, our creators!
Q: Regarding the artists and creators, how do they make the selection? Are you planning to run campaigns to include the most creative creators among the designers on your team? Or is it not necessary because each user will be able to create their own content in SAVAGE?
Luke Neumann: Each user will be able to upload their own content! Our internal team at SAVAGE is full of some great designers and creators but the community will fill the SAVAGE marketplace with content.
Q: It said Savage YouTube Channel has over than 143,000 subscribers, what are main info we can ge there, and how the plans about future marketing programs?
Luke Neumann: We will be filling the YouTube channel with informative videos regarding the marketplace, closer to launch. Additionally, we have some amazing viral videos in the works to drive engagement and brand exposure. It’s going to be very fun and the YouTube channel of SAVAGE will be the focus!
Luke Neumann: A huge thank you to @mykocryptodiffer and the CryptoDiffer community for having me on! We are running a big “12 Days of SAVAGE Christmas” giveaway with $SAVG tokens at IDO price and camera gear. Lots of fun stuff in this campaign so please go to our socials for more info!
