# How Much Will It Cost to Make It Happen?

Here's the potential range of cost per signature for various strategies to gather 80 million signatures for a global initiative like the LOGICAL Treaty. Then, we'll calculate the total estimated cost for achieving this goal through each method.

### 1. Traditional Advertising

- **Cost per Signature**: $1 to $5
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures**: $80 million to $400 million

### 2. Referral and Incentive System

- **Cost per Signature**: Around $0.16 (after optimizations)
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures**: Approximately $12.8 million

### 3. Crypto Token Sale for Funding

- **Initial Startup Cost**: $85,000 to $550,000 (for establishing the DAO and related infrastructure)
- **Cost per Signature**: $0.05 to $0.50 (assuming successful fundraising and effective fund utilization)
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures** (excluding initial startup costs): $4 million to $40 million

### 4. Social Media and Viral Campaigns

- **Cost per Signature**: $0.05 to $0.50
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures**: $4 million to $40 million

### 5. Volunteer Networks

- **Cost per Signature**: $0.01 to $0.10
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures**: $800,000 to $8 million

### 6. Partnership with Influencers and Organizations

- **Cost per Signature**: $0.10 to $0.40
- **Total Cost for 80 Million Signatures**: $8 million to $32 million

### Combining Strategies

Combining various strategies to gather 80 million signatures for a global initiative can offer cost efficiencies and leverage the strengths of different approaches. Here's an analysis of the overall potential cost for achieving this ambitious goal using a multi-strategy approach:

### Combined Strategies Approach:

1. **Volunteer Networks** for grassroots mobilization.
2. **Social Media and Viral Campaigns** for broad reach and engagement.
3. **Referral and Incentive System** to encourage and reward active participation.
4. **Partnership with Influencers and Organizations** for credibility and wider exposure.
5. **Crypto Token Sale for Funding** to generate and manage the necessary financial resources efficiently.

### Estimated Costs by Strategy (for 80 Million Signatures):

- **Volunteer Networks**: Primarily non-monetary costs (e.g., organizing effort); let's allocate a nominal value for organizational support: $1 million.
- **Social Media and Viral Campaigns**: Assuming high efficiency and virality, costs can be kept lower: $10 million.
- **Referral and Incentive System**: Highly effective in driving participation at a low cost: $12.8 million.
- **Partnership with Influencers and Organizations**: Varies widely; estimated support and marketing cost: $5 million.
- **Crypto Token Sale for Funding**: Initial startup cost plus a buffer for operational and unforeseen expenses: $1 million (startup) + $4 million (buffer) = $5 million.

### Estimating Combined Strategy Costs:

- **Base Cost (Volunteer Networks & Social Media)**: Assuming this grassroots foundation keeps costs low, we could estimate $0.01 to $0.05 per signature for these efforts, given the minimal direct costs involved.

- **Referral and Incentive Enhancements**: Adding in a well-optimized referral system might increase the cost slightly but still remain under $0.20 per signature due to the efficiency of peer-to-peer promotion.

- **Supplementary Funding and Outreach**:
- **Crypto Token Sale**: The initial startup cost (not per signature) is $85,000 to $550,000, potentially offset by the funds raised.
- **Partnerships and Advertising**: Additional costs for partnerships and targeted advertising could increase the average cost, but leveraging funds from the token sale and focusing on cost-effective partnerships could keep increases minimal.

### Potential Cost Range for 80 Million Signatures:

Given the base and enhanced approaches:

- **Lower Bound**: $0.01 to $0.05 per signature for primarily volunteer and social media-driven efforts, plus the efficiency of a referral program, could lead to a minimal increase.
- **Total Cost Range**: $800,000 to $4 million.

- **Upper Bound**: Considering some use of paid advertising and partnerships, and assuming efficient use of funds from a crypto sale to cover these costs effectively, the per signature cost might slightly increase.
- **Total Cost Range**: Given the optimizations and strategic funding, a reasonable upper estimate might be $0.20 to $0.30 per signature if we factor in all combined strategies effectively.
- **Total Cost Range**: $16 million to $24 million for 80 million signatures.

### Conclusion:

Using a combination of strategies can potentially keep the cost at the lower end of the spectrum while maximizing reach and engagement. The key to this approach is leveraging the strengths of each strategy while managing costs effectively, particularly by using the crypto token sale to fund more expensive efforts like targeted advertising and influencer partnerships. This holistic strategy could significantly reduce the overall cost per signature while still achieving the ambitious goal of 80 million signatures.

# Individual ROI on Getting Friends to Sign the Treaty

$1,258,412 for 5 Hours of Your Time

Historical examples show that petitions with support from over **1% of the population** have a high likelihood of being adopted.

So all you have to do is convince a small fraction of your friends to sign this treaty and convince them to convince a small fraction of their friends to sign this treaty and so on.

## Factors Influencing Time Investment

1. **Number of Friends:** The average number of significant relationships one might actively maintain, often cited as Dunbar's number, is around 150.

2. **Method of Communication:** Personal messages or emails are considered for this estimation, assuming they strike a balance between personal touch and efficiency.

3. **Time Per Friend:** It's estimated that drafting and sending a personal message or email would take approximately 2 minutes per friend. This includes the time to write the message and possibly tailor it slightly for each friend.

## Calculation

Given the average number of friends (150) and the estimated time per friend (2 minutes), the total time investment can be calculated as follows:

- **Total Friends:** 150
- **Time per Friend:** 2 minutes

Total Time = Number of Friends × Time per Friend
= 150 friends × 2 minutes/friend
= 300 minutes

Converting this into hours:

Total Time in Hours = Total Time in Minutes / 60
= 300 minutes / 60
= 5 hours

Based on this estimation, an average person would need to invest approximately 5 hours to individually reach out to all 150 of their friends via personal messages or emails about the treaty. This calculation assumes a brief but personalized communication method, emphasizing the importance of each conversation in promoting global initiatives.
