Creating a cool website: A website marks the fundamental online presence of a business. It should have all the necessary information about that business that a consumer needs to make an informative purchase decision. Creating your website for ICO sale is your first step towards marketing it. As for business websites, customers are turned off by websites that are untidy, scattered-looking, has poor UI and loads slowly.

It contains all the requisite technical and non-technical information that investors need to decide if your project is worth the investment or not. It should have a smooth tone and flow of the content that investors find informative as well as intriguing. In the industry, it is very common for ICOs to hire ICO white paper writing services.

Building and managing an ICO community: Today, almost all ICOs need communities on social media channels like Facebook, Telegram (most popular platform among crypto-enthusiasts), Twitter, Reddit, BitcoinTalk, etc. Building such a community is a challenge and takes time and some serious efforts but you can reap the rewards at a later time. Once you have a full-fledged community, you need to find ways to manage it. This is where Telegram community management comes into the picture.

Mostly, ICO companies outsource the crypto community management part to agencies that provide ICO community management services. It is better that way. Now with the community management being taken care of, the ICO company can now focus on various other aspects of their business like product development, partnerships, etc.
