2 - The motivation for this proposal:

Communication through digital media channels has become one of the most effective ways to reach and influence vast audiences in the modern era. Our channel, Verbo da Sabedoria, has made its mark by producing high-quality, impactful content for the Portuguese community in Polkadot. However, to continue expanding and enhancing our reach, we require funding. Here are the reasons why investing in our channel is pivotal.

Educational: If our channel has an educational bent, funding will allow us to produce content that not only entertains, but also educates and informs audiences, making a positive contribution to Polkadot beginners and enthusiasts alike.

Technical Improvement: Funding will allow us to purchase better quality equipment, more advanced editing tools and animation software, thus ensuring a superior visual and sound experience for our audience.

Expand Polkadot Contents: With adequate funding, we will be able to diversify and expand our content portfolio, covering more varied topics and innovative formats, thus reaching an even larger and more diverse audience.

Advertising and Promotion: Through effective advertising campaigns, we can expand our reach and attract new followers. Promotion is vital for any channel that wants to grow and stand out in a saturated market.

Consistency and Frequency: Funding will ensure we have the resources we need to consistently produce content, keeping our audience engaged and expanding our impact in Brazil.
