Welcome, Welcome – Weekly Blog N0. 6
Yet another week has passed us by, and what a week it was. Yesterday we revealed the premier of the RFOX VALT SHOP sale trailer, and so far, the feedback has been fantastic. You are going to love what we have in store for you next, but in the meantime, let's focus on what we have for you now. Over the course of the last week, we have put more polish on our auction site, are nearly ready to roll out the full RFOX VALT website, and we have also improved the tools for SHOP templates, meaning that all you potential owners can morph into your very own Antoni Gaudi or Frank Lloyd Wright. So, this week we look at some of the concept art progressions as we get closer to finalised templates and announcing our first client(s) — join us as we chronicle the RFOX VALT journey.

When will the RFOX VALT sale begin and end?
RFOX VALT is pleased to announce the sale for the Callinova quarter SHOPs and will begin on the 14th of September and run for 72-hours (3 days). The sale is an auction and accepting RFOX (ERC20) only and start at $5k worth of RFOX, with the price being set on the day of the auction. Follow the social channels for times and how you can participate.
So, you missed the Discord call and did not get a walkthrough of the RFOX VALT in VR? We have you covered:
Callinova - Callinova is the first quarter to launch in the RFOX VALT and is based on art, hence being the art quarter. The word Callinova is a combination of “Calli” – meaning Calligraphy (a form of artistic writing) + Callisto (a Jupiter moon, which will be explained shortly) + Beautiful or Lovely and “nova”- meaning Supernova (a star that has exploded showing a sudden increase in brightness). Combined, we end up with an artistic explosion of brightness, which we think is perfect for the art-based quarter.
Why provide a walkthrough video? - We want to show our clients, future customers and users what is forming. We know token holders are a different audience for the most part and looking for token appreciation, but this video is to show an ‘as-is’ view of the RFOX VALT as it forms and gets closer and closer to release.
Many Metaverses are dead or have exceptionally low traffic. How will you combat that? - The RFOX VALT is a retail and e-commerce based metaverse so it has a different hook and USP. In addition, we also have the added benefit of concerts, events, e-sports, and gaming. But the real point of difference is that we have multiple ventures plugging into the RFOX VALT meaning all users and players of RFOX GAMES, RFOX Media, RFOX TV, RFOX Finance, RFOX NFT platform and the cashback and streaming app will all converge in one principal place.
Here are some of the other ways we are attracting customers to the RFOX VALT in case you missed it.
These are the marketing initiatives we are working on:
Adverts being made by 3 high-end production companies. – We now have 3 adverts being made for the RFOX VALT and the first one will make its debut on the 19th of August. The other 2 will be hot on its heels. The first advert is made specifically for the SHOP sale, the second is an evergreen explainer of what the RFOX ecosystem is, and the 3rd is a lore story and gamer advert for the RFOX VALT to show how the metaverse and game combine. Yes, you heard it correctly.
Marketing Ramp-up – In addition to the above-mentioned adverts, which will be promoted across various social media channels and through multiple mediums, we will also use the reach of the millions of people using MyMedia in Southeast Asia.
Big brand partnerships and marquee clients – Having secured a 3-year partnership with Miss Universe Philippines (Launch dates to be announced in the coming weeks) and working with some other partners that we will soon release; we have extended the reach of our traditional RFOX ecosystem reach. Each of these clients has their own established audience that will allow us to bring in users to the RFOX ecosystem.
