Why 'No Marketing' Sinks Most Token Launches
Launching in silence guarantees your token will fail.
A token launch without a marketing strategy is like opening a store in a dark alley. No one knows it exists. On platforms that focus only on the technical deployment, your token appears in a list alongside hundreds of others with zero context. Potential buyers see a name, a price chart, and nothing else. They have no reason to trust the project, understand its purpose, or believe in its future. This leads to a launch with minimal buy-in, followed by immediate selling pressure from the few who did participate, creating a death spiral. The core issue isn't the lack of a fancy campaign; it's the absence of a basic narrative and a fair structure that aligns creator success with holder success.
The Fix: Built-In Promotion and Sustainable Economics
For creators facing the 'no marketing' challenge, Spawned provides the essential toolkit not just to launch, but to launch with context. The solution combines two elements: a presentation layer for your project and tokenomics designed for long-term growth. Instead of a raw token address, you get a professional website built by AI that explains your vision. Instead of taking 100% of fees for yourself, you share a significant portion with the community that supports you. This creates a foundational marketing push—your project has a home, and your holders have a reason to stay.
- AI Website Builder: Immediately create a landing page for your token, saving $29-99/month on external site builders.
- Transparent Fee Structure: You earn 0.30% creator revenue on every trade, providing ongoing funding for development and marketing.
- Holder Reward System: An additional 0.30% from every trade is distributed to token holders, incentivizing holding and reducing sell pressure.
No Marketing Launch vs. A Structured Spawned Launch
The difference between launching in the dark and launching with a plan.
| Aspect | Traditional 'No Marketing' Launch | Spawned Launch |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Cost | ~0.02 SOL for token creation + $29-99/month for a website. | 0.1 SOL flat fee. Website included at no ongoing cost. |
| Project Story | None. Token exists on a chart with a name only. | AI-built website provides a home for your vision, roadmap, and team. |
| Creator Incentive | Often 0% or 100% of fees, creating misalignment. | Earn 0.30% on every trade, funding future development. |
| Holder Incentive | Usually zero. Pure speculation. | Earn 0.30% rewards on every trade, paid directly to holders. |
| Post-Launch Path | Often a 'dead' token or a manual migration to a new contract. | Automatic graduation to a permanent Token-2022 contract with 1% perpetual fees. |
| Community Trust | Very low. No information breeds suspicion. | Built through transparency and shared rewards from the first trade. |
Your 5-Step Launch Plan to Fix 'No Marketing'
A clear path from idea to active, traded token.
Follow this process to launch with built-in promotional advantages.
- Concept & Tokenomics: Define your token's purpose. Use the Spawned dashboard to set your total supply, and decide on any initial allocations for community or liquidity. Remember, 0.30% of all trades will go to you, and 0.30% will be shared with holders.
- Build Your Project Hub: Use the integrated AI website builder. Input your project description, upload logos, and outline your goals. This creates the 'why' for potential buyers. Learn about creating a gaming token on Solana for niche-specific ideas.
- Share Before Launch: Before you mint the token, share the link to your project website with your community. Let people read about it, ask questions, and build anticipation. This pre-launch phase is critical for generating initial interest.
- Launch & Initial Liquidity: Pay the 0.1 SOL launch fee. Your token and initial liquidity pool are created instantly. Your project website is now live and linked directly to the trading interface.
- Engage & Grow: Use the 0.30% creator revenue from early trades to fund further marketing, contests, or development. The holder rewards mechanism automatically encourages retention.
3 Built-In Features That Act as Marketing Tools
These mechanisms work passively to promote growth and stability.
- Holder Reward Pool (0.30%): This isn't just a number. It's a powerful message. Advertising that 'holders earn a share of every trade' is a tangible benefit that attracts a different type of investor—one interested in longevity, not just a quick flip.
- Professional Project Page: The AI-generated site gives you instant credibility. It allows you to link to a clean, informative page on Twitter, Telegram, or Discord instead of just a contract address. This reduces friction for newcomers trying to understand your project.
- Graduation to Token-2022: The path to a permanent, upgradable contract with 1% fees is clear. This signals to your community that the project is designed to evolve and last, not just exist as a quick launchpad experiment.

Yes, for any project serious about growth. A website is your project's home page. It's where you explain your vision, team, and goals. Without it, you're asking people to invest in a nameless, purposeless asset. The Spawned AI builder creates this essential tool in minutes, at no extra monthly cost, solving a major hurdle for new creators.
It's a core feature you can lead with in your communications. Telling potential buyers they will earn a share of every single trade is a powerful incentive.

Absolutely. In fact, having an existing community makes a Spawned launch even more effective. You can share your project website with them pre-launch to build hype. The holder reward mechanism then gives your community a tangible reason to hold and support the token long-term, turning followers into invested stakeholders.
Consider what you get: not just a token, but a website builder (saving $29+ per month), a built-in holder reward system, and a path to a permanent contract.

Start with the assets Spawned provides: share your project website link everywhere. Use the 0.30% creator revenue generated from early trades to fund further initiatives like social media ads, influencer partnerships, or community contests. The platform gives you the foundation; you use the ongoing revenue to build on it.
