One Sphera has found a massive need in the global advertising system that is virtually untapped.

Word of mouth was THE major driver in business – that has changed. It is no longer word of Mouth, it’s word of Mouse. The world communicates via social media, but it and advertising are broken and extractive.

Our disruptive Value Chain Advertising System radically changes the relationship between businesses, advertisers, and customers, building a true collaborative economy.

We reward participants for what they are already doing through our integrated game-based rewards system.

Transform your customer base into an extension of your sales force.

1. You set a budget, rewards, and prizes for your Promotional Advertising Campaign.
2. One Sphera rewards your customers for sharing your offer with their friends through word of mouse and social media.
3. Customers are rewarded with $$, CommunityCoin, prizes, and badges based on the impact of their individual contribution.
4. You reap the rewards with new customers, increased reach, and greater profits through our powerful, opt-in Promotional Techniques.

The Value Chain lets you target precise customer interests

• We have spent the last 5 years designing and coding The Community Platform software architecture. 
• We have built a Minimum Viable Prototype (MVP) and conducted a successful beta test in Reno, NV.
• We are live with Let's Connect! (creating trusted 3rd party connections) and Let's Work! (Project Creation and Resource Management).
• You can download a beta version here
• We have applied for a patent on our “Value Chain Advertising Platforms and Methods.” (EFS ID 30791323, App # 62/578,419)  
• We have attracted a world class Board of Advisors. 
• We have prepared the company with some seed money to begin a series of raises to make this world changing technology a reality.
• We intend to conduct the initial genesis of our Token, CommunityCoin in the next 60-90 days.

With your help, we anticipate the full Release 1 of the Community Platform in Q2 of 2019.

Every day on Facebook, Amazon, Linkedin, Google, and more - people are sharing reviews, posts, suggestions, photos, likes, etc.  - without any reward.

• While people get satisfaction from sharing, they get no financial remuneration for the value they create.
• User's information and the content they produce is the financial foundation for an inefficient and ineffective advertising model.

This extractive model systemically drives advertising towards the lowest common denominator of content and quality.(1,2)  Further, businesses are cursed by not knowing which 50% of their “advertising dollar” is effective because current models reward clicks, not content or quality.(3,4)

We’ve developed a method to share financial rewards with customers by building an engaged community that explicitly shares their precise interests in real time. At the same time, we create a delivery system for high-quality, opt-in, and laser-targeted advertising that radically improves effectiveness and efficiency, leading to increasing conversion rates.

Our Value Chain Solution is literally a multi-dimensional, transactional combining of…

•     Sharing advertising dollars via trusted referrals (gossip for good),
•     A dynamic multi-layered reward system,
•     Loyalty program that actually works,
•     Building engaged communities,

…all in a constellation of shared interests, needs and offers, and collaborative projects.

Our approach is a game changer because it turns the global economy “upside down” with the advent of our disruptive multi-dimensional model. At its heart is our secret sauce: Community Engagement.

We support our interactive, engaged community members and incentivize them to share their truthful opinions, ratings, and more. Members can find and engage with other like-minded people and organizations, earn rewards, and co-create a thriving, interactive economic ecosystem.

This process of engaging community scales from local to regional to nationwide and around the world.

Our Value Chain Advertising System (VCS) is a disruptive, patent-pending approach that uses blockchain for fundraising and advertising. It fundamentally challenges the centralized approach taken by dominant firms today that primarily only benefits advertisers.

By participating in an interconnecting chain of value, the VCS distributes financial and other rewards directly back to our customers and participants. When our users click on various ads and pictures, etc. to add comments, give ratings, share the advertising campaign or just add an emoji - they will earn a portion of revenues generated from the advertisement based on a points system.

The user interface of The Community Platform is built on Unity 3D and designed to operate on smartphones, tablets, and PC’s that support nearly every platform, including Windows, iOS, a full range of of Web Browsers, and Augmented and Virtual Reality Delivery Systems.

The majority of the tools within our application suite require a connection to the Internet, however certain key features are useful offline. The entire Community Platform is designed to operate quickly, intuitively, and engage the Member’s interest. Future releases of the product will include the ability to change interface “skins,” language localization, personal #hashtags, and more.

Data Sovereignty and Identity Sovereignty are our top security concerns!  Everything on the Platform is Opt-In.

The Community Platform offers multiple levels of (opt-in) information regarding each Member, Organization, Project, Event, News Item, Advertisement, and more. This is accomplished through powerful sets of independently and interactively running engines that drive the connectivity and key analytical interactions within the system.

If you don't want to see it - you won't see it.

If you don't want to share it - it won't be shared.

• Project Engine
• Rewards Engine

• Relevancy Engine
• Network Analytics Engine

The Community Platform offers an interest-based application suite that promotes civic engagement, community support, and real-world human interactions. It does this by explicitly and implicitly mapping individual interests and providing a powerful platform for Member engagement.

Each Sphere on the Platform represents a broad category of interests, as well as a Sphere of influence. Within each Sphere are Static SubSpheres which define categories of engagement.  Beneath that are Unique SubSpheres that provide value to the Member and the Community. We can drill down into Dynamic Spheres and MicroSpheres that support even more specialization.

The CommunityCoin (CC) is the Securitized-Utility Token of One Sphera, Inc. and is used to reward and incentivize positive community activities. CC tokens can improve collaboration opportunities, increase access to qualified goods and services on our marketplace, validate community activity, and increase the overall quality and value of communities and networks.

Positive service activities rewarded with CommunityCoin are divided into two categories:

Proof of Community Cooperation (PoCC)

Proof of Community Influence (PoCI)

• Participants are PoCC qualified when they contribute to a Campaign.  They could attend an event, purchase an item, or contribute time or resources to an organization. For example, a user can volunteer three hours to pick up trash for a river cleanup event and receive points for their PoCC activity.
• PoCI qualification depends on getting recognition for influencing others. Adding stories, ratings, comments, emojis, videos, and pictures or sharing a campaign with are PoCI activities. For example, a user could take pictures of a local pizza parlor event that’s running a Value Chain campaign and share them with others to receive points.  Their sharing influences others.

Activity is tracked in a Secure Blockchain Ledger. At the end of the Campaign, the points are tallied, exchanged for rewards and/or tokens, and the total rewards are distributed amongst the qualified participants. Each member’s portion of the reward will be deposited in their private, secured Value Chain Digital Wallet.

While CommunityCoin is always available on the Community Platform, the platform can also offer other currencies including local fiat currency.  Rewards can include merchandise and prizes that the organizer chooses. 

Our platform allows everyone to take advantage of the advances made possible by digital currency and the blockchain without having to be too technologically savvy about these concepts.

It is YOUR data and YOUR relationships. You decide what you will share, with whom, when, how, and can change it at any time. Your Privacy and Security are our number one concerns.

The security of your identity is a paramount focus for us. Roles and powerful encrypted forms of identity management allow YOU to decide what part of your identity to share with others and in what areas.

YOU decide what you see in your Newsfeed and in your Inbox, especially advertising. Only see what you want to see.

The Community Platform encourages safe civil discourse and exchange in a supportive environment. It breaks-down barriers by focusing on what connects, not separates us.

Imagine the financial and heart-felt rewards achieved by participating in a global, trusted platform that radically upends the way we advertise, market, and engage our communities and the world!

Global advertising and fundraising spend by businesses, non-profits, and governments has been constantly increasing since 2010 - and is forecast to approach $724B by 2020. 

We intend to disrupt and capture a portion of that market by significantly incentivizing everyone to engage in a platform that rewards community cooperation, community influence, and energizes community collaboration.

Our team, developing our project for the past five years, has established regional and global community connections.

Regional:

• Washoe County – 400,000
• Operation Downtown (downtown Reno) – 200,000
• Keep Truckee Meadows Beautiful – 20,000
• Sierra Arts Foundation – 10,000

Global:

• America Matters Media (radio) – 3 million
• Sarvodaya, Sri Lanka (community) – 12 million
• Omyway (retail) – 40 million
• CEO Space (50,000 companies)

We strongly believe in the need to produce sustainable profit. Thus, we have established multiple revenue streams:

1. Value Chain Advertising and Fundraising – organizations pay a percentage or flat fee to use our platform for each of their campaigns.
2. Laser Targeted Advertising – Individuals and Businesses can pay to have their products advertised to highly targeted groups within our platform and pay much less than they are now.
3. Premium services – Community members pay for increased access to our exclusive services like group management, increased simultaneous functions, network map analytics, and advanced reporting options.
4. Transaction fees – Although the transaction fees will be very small for our members, we expect to have a pool of participants large enough that the total amount of revenue we receive from transactions will be adequate to run the Platform.

User Interface

We have chosen the Unity 3D engine as the front-end for our Platform for a number of reasons:

• Sophisticated user interface that supports 2D, 3D, AR and VR.
• The gaming-focused high speed platform lends itself to blazing fast business performance
• Massive asset library that supports PC's, Web, Mobile Devices and Gaming Consoles of all types
• Amazing Talent Pool of Coders, Designers, and Graphic Artists available that know Unity

API Layer

For Release 1 we are planning to upgrade the entire platform to promote scalability and interoperability with a powerful Application Programming Interface Layer (API) using Kong.  Kong is a scalable, open source API Layer (also known as an API Gateway, or API Middleware). Kong runs in front of any RESTful API and is extended through Plugins, which provide extra functionality and services beyond the core platform.

Database

Our back-end PostgreSQL database is a very robust multi-dimensional structure that supports massive scaling and with the addition of Postgres-XL we will have massively parallel processing (MPP) and large scale horizontal scalability.

As part of our advanced builds, we will use Mongo DB and other tools to create our Machine Learning Inference Engine, allowing the Platform to become self-managing in many areas.

Value Chain Platform

The Value Chain Advertising Engine will be part of the Release One Build.  As is the majority of our Platform, it is being written in C# using the Kong API interface with our PostgreSQL back-end.

Skins and Gaming

Release Two will include User-Defined Skins, allowing for a variety of customized interfaces and gaming options.  The Look and Feel of the Platform will allow for a wide variety of exciting possibilities.

Multi-Language Support

Release Three will leverage the skins created in Rel2 and offer localization for up to 80 different languages, supporting our Global roll-out.  We will also have our Machine Learning Inference Engine engaged, assisting us in managing the Spheres of Interest and Influence, and optimizing the reliability and relevancy of data that comes into everyone's Newsfeed.

Design, Test, and Scale Strategy

Our intention is to use our local customer base in Northern Nevada and Northern California to guide our development to solve real-world problems.  We intend to address community-centric challenges such as:

* Finding local resources (manpower, material, and resources) for Projects

* Creating and Managing Social Action Projects

* Creating Advertising Campaigns for local businesses

* Creating Fundraising Campaigns for local charities and Non-Profits

Once we prove the viability of the Community Platform for these key areas, we will scale to large retail business for subsequent testing and eventual deployment into the larger customer base.

Our ultimate goal is to extend our Platform to 80 languages so that users will be able to easily facilitate connecting people in local regions and around the world for shared interests, needs and offers, and collaborative projects.

We have already developed and released Beta software for The Community Platform and have garnered very positive user feedback. You can download your own copy for testing and check our progress on our website. 

We are currently in the process of honing our visual interface and attaining approval to offer our software in selected online stores.

Our team members have been at the forefront of community building  and successful pioneering large-scale digital platforms. Some examples of organizations we have been part of are: Verifone, PayPal, AOL, and MySpace.

With One Sphera, our core team has found a way to leverage blockchain and cryptocurrency technology for the benefit of everyone. Our platform spreads value, and safely shares user-controlled data throughout a community rather than for the benefit of an elite few. We believe our technology has the potential to make a real difference in the world, and we hope you’ll join us in seeing its full development to fruition.
