Personal Notes on Viral Scaling
I am committed to developing a viral scaling strategy - not an easy task. We are developing a unique value proposition based on a desire for highest ethics of responsibility and nonviolence as described in Unique Value Proposition. This is in turn motivated by my conviction that in a connected world, the other side of consumerism is war, and the other side of prosperity is deprivation. I want to change the world by showing that it can be done otherwise - by creating autonomous, modern communities on the scale of 40 acres.
I think that there is about one individual in a million who cares enough about the above condition to drop all they are doing and join us at Factor e Farm to make it a reality. This makes for 7000 candidates worldwide. We are looking for 30 of them to make Factor e farm a digital-age village to reinvent the world.
People tell me that I should spend our money wildly to get to the end-state - simply paying people to reinvent the world. However, I don't think we can just buy ourselves out of this one - creating a new civilization is deeper. So I keep looking for volunteers with enough motivation as myself. I am looking for people who need no more than $500 per month to build a new world. This means these people would have the motivation to:
- Create a real community
- Design that community to be replicable
- Be Distributive Enterprise Entrepreneurs to promote the creation of other communities
- Have a clear desire to change the world - both by their personal example of living ethically with advanced import substitution - and by acting as agents of OSE-type community replication
