Philosophy
Friendz decentralizes the online marketing industry, elevating the final user to a central position, where he can monetize its contribution to the digital advertising process leveraging blockchain technology.
Unlike famous influencers, users generally do not get rewarded through the advertising process, even if they contribute with sharing brands’ posts on social networks and interacting with companies official pages.
Friendz let users monetize their actions online in a decentralised and democratic way, depending on their skills and influence.
The idea
Friendz was born at the end of 2015 with the idea of finding a solution to a problem that companies faces in doing digital advertising, that is reaching and engaging their target audience in the communication and sharing of the companies values and message. Friendz infrastructure can control and manage a huge number of contents published, reducing costs for companies and providing strong efficiency.
Innovation
Friendz introduced a revolutionary marketing concept, leveraging the peer-to-peer communication on social networks and the power of word of mouth. Friendz users are not influencers with a big audience, but normal people that use social networks everyday. The size of the audience reached is the same, but consists of the close connections of thousands of micro influencers. In this way, the advertising message shared on their profile reaches their friends in a genuine and natural way and is much more effective.

Impressive idea, a hard working team and pretty mature product and an executable plan for next jump. I evaluate this is low risk project and worth to invest! However, suggest set lower hard cap.

The fact they have working product with seven figure revenue says a lot. Great Italian team from the land of Ferraris and Lambos. I feel good about this one. Interesting to see existing communities bring in crypto - like the Canadians at Kik with their 300m users. Good job folks and good luck.

Influencer marketing is a massive growing market. I believe that Friendz is able to provide a service that in a growing market. Having an existing platform is extremely helpful and the gamification aspect of it is awesome.

Rated on 5 Feb 2018
Friendz benefits greatly from already having a working platform with a high user pool. In addition, it has a very strong team and the idea of peer-to-peer marketing is gaining traction worldwide. It has a fairly active social media presence in place and its ICO metrics are fair and balanced. It also faces little competition given its already enormous user base. This is a superb project.

The project altogether looks very appealing. I believe it will make a success!

Quite a strong team (failed KYC) and good vision for the roadmap. Glad to see a working product with 200k users in an industry ripe for innovation through the blockchain.

+ good team set up. 5+
+ great vision and strategy
+ strong business case
+ working product
- average platform profile, a few missing details
overall a 4.5 rating. a clear recommend.

Rated on 3 Mar 2018
Good start, if they have 200k sticky users then that is a good start. MAu at 45k or so might indicate that there are a good few unisnatllls as well. Like the concept. be intersted to see the number of what Google and ISO consider active installs as at say end of Feb to get better idea on cohorts and churn. If they get momentum will be interesting andworth a punt

A working product, already cash flowing, a great and fun team. I'm happy to give my first 5 star across the board rating to this ICO.

- Hypothesis - the working capacity of which is proved
- The team that goes to direct contact and answers your questions in linkedin (Alessandro Cadoni)
- Rational application of blockchain technology
- Active community
- Working product

Rated on 4 Feb 2018
Based on the team's skills they can do or improve what they are saying in their whitepaper. The product is there and already working with revenues. I really liked the idea of having the user in a central position in their product!!!

Rated on 26 Feb 2018
Pros:
+ Working product with 200k+ users and €1.2M revenue; impressive client portfolio (e.g. Nestle, UBER, PayPal)
+ Great experienced team and advisors
+ Overall feel is playful, stylish, and appealing to the social media communities; clear whitepaper and company targets
Cons:
- Lots of potential and the team has already proved they can deliver. This is not really a disadvantage, but it will be interesting to see how will raising an ICO impact further development and progression, as well as company's ability to cope with/manage new challenges and responsibilities
- Other competitors
- Failed ICO KYC report

Rated on 4 Feb 2018
Wonderful team! 2 years in the works, 200k+ users. Working product...revenue. Looks good!

Team of younger motivated people, nice vision and product already live and fuctional. I suggest the members of the team also to do their KYC in IcoBench to increase the trustworthiness in the team.

Great project and solid team.
This ICO is aimed to success thanks to a project that will hit a huge market, but is an already running system.
For them, i would say, the market is already prepared.
5 for the vision and the product thank for solid basis
4 at the team, since with this project, on the next ICO they will get a 5!

Very promising social media platform that has done quite well prior to its ICO. Looking forward to the launch.

A low risk investment. If you're looking for large gains, find another project.
This is a cool project if you're in it for the long haul, not to mention it already has an established product.

Rated on 18 Feb 2018
They have the product they have the vision already. Which is an A+ for me.
The name is awesome, and marketable.
The team is young in cryptocurrency and I hope they will some how manage the funds correctly and support the overall communities in this niche.

Love the influencer marketing platform. Established product and solid team bodes well for Friendz success.

One of the best and promising upcoming icos!

Rated on 19 Feb 2018
Mature product and a plan in place. I evaluate this as a great ICO. The user-base is potentially very large, as almost the entire world uses social media in some form. However, the competition will become intense as blockchain technology adoption continues, given the size of the target audience.
Current competitors are Steemit, Sphere, Nexus, and Social X.

Rated on 4 Feb 2018
There are lots of social media types of projects, and this one doesn't really require a decentralized model.

Very good from marketing side that it's a very important side. Adv world is very competitive sector (also biggest ones ready to do their first move) and the product doesn't bring any disruptive innovation respect the others. Poor blockchain experience of the team.
