Have you joined The8App yet?

The 8 App is a new social app that rewards content creators by sharing ad rev, you can also accept sponsorship offers to pass on the message on a brand. Has anyone joined yet?

 

Not yet, But I will join, If you will provide more details about this app.

 

interesting concept, and I am on the fence if this is a good idea or not. I might sign up, simply to decide for myself if it is good or not. IMO poorly named as there are 3 different ways to spell 8. 'ate', 'eight' and '8'.

I wonder if we will see an influx of lowkey product mentions in our feeds. Clearly the creators were drinking red bull when they came up with that app idea, as well, you know redbull give you wings.

I think if people did this, to family, friends, etc, it would not take long before people get sick of you, and start ignoring you.... like that one friend we all used to have that talks about the crap they got from avon... desperately trying to make a sale. There are people that would be wanting to get multiple phones, multiple apps and accounts, to try to earn big $$$, it wont be long before subtle product messages turn into non-stop barrage of advertisement.

Then from the advertisers perspective, you could end up paying for posts from 'inactive' accounts setup primarily for this app, that have fake likes and or subcribers. Marketing on social media has the potential to blow up aggressively, especially if you hire a RED neck, who may say alot of BULL simply to try to get paid. They might not necessarily be able to reflect the companies image correctly and may cause more harm then good. Companies really should take the time to invest, hiring experts to handle their social media marketing which can GIVE THEM WINGS
