5. ETHICS AND VALUES: STAY GROUNDED IN FAITH AND PURPOSE

5.1 Faith-Centered Ad Policies

  • Goal: Maintain the platform’s unique focus on Christian values while staying innovative.

  • Actions:

    • Ensure that all ads go through a faith-based review process, upholding Christian values and ensuring no secular or harmful influences infiltrate the platform.

    • Set up ad categories that specifically cater to ministries, faith-driven businesses, and community service, offering them special rates or ad placement options to make sure they thrive.

5.2 Giving Back to the Community

  • Goal: Make social good and community service part of your brand's DNA, which differentiates you from corporate giants like Google.

  • Actions:

    • Establish a social impact fund that uses a portion of ad revenues to support global humanitarian efforts.

    • Create a crowdfunding platform that allows users to fund faith-based projects with a portion of ad revenue.

    • Allow non-profits and faith-driven organizations to run ads at reduced rates or for free, making them more visible to global audiences.

 

6. LONG-TERM THINKING: KEEP YOUR VISION EXPANDING

6.2 Continual Disruption: Always Challenge the Status Quo

  • Goal: Be the disruptor, not the disrupted, by constantly challenging existing business models.

  • Actions:

    • Explore new ad models such as pay-per-engagement or pay-per-conversion that improve transparency and give advertisers more control.

    • Be the first to integrate next-gen formats like immersive virtual reality ads, voice ads, and blockchain-based ad verification.
