Turing Labs — A Comprehensive ICO Consultancy

An ICO is not just a vehicle to raise money fast, it is a strategic device to help augment the growth and scalability of your business. With ICO consultancies cropping up in every nook and corner of this world, it is imperative for you to ensure that the ICO consultancy you hire is capable of delivering as per your needs and more importantly, advise you as you navigate the ever-evolving ecosystem of ICOs. Turing Labs addresses these concerns first, before delving into the intricacies of getting your idea off the ground.

Turing Labs was founded in 2016 by a team of skilled entrepreneurs and investors who come from an advanced technologies' background. The Turing Labs team comes with the experience of over 15 ICOs conducted successfully and looks forward to helping your ICO shoot for the moon too. Turing Labs provides a plethora of ICO services that work in tandem to ensure that your ICO offering is above-par with respect to the other hundreds of ICOs vying for a place at the table.

Let us take you through our list of services that will be a part of the end-to-end solution provided for your ICO. We divide the entire ICO into three equally important segments to help you better understand the processes involved. These segments are:

The Pre-ICO Stage
The ICO Stage
The Post-ICO Stage

Each of these segments is comprised of several smaller sub-segments which capture individual actionable items of our services. Each actionable item below represents the self-contained activity and comes with its own set of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to assess the results of each sub-segment. Let's find out about each of them.

The Pre-ICO Stage
This is the stage where you have conceptualized your plans of going forward with your ICO or are at least in the planning stages. The Pre-ICO stage consists of:

 Idea Conceptualization

At this stage, Turing Labs assigns key personnel to your plan to help you complete the conceptualization and map out all the edge case scenarios. Turing Labs ensures that your plan will thrive in the highly competitive marketplace. Turing Labs helps you to finalize a suitable place of incorporation, get in touch with specialised legal personnel, and generally guide you through the logistics leg of the ICO.

 ICO White Paper Drafting and Investor Pitch Deck Development

A white paper is the most prominent marketing document of your ICO. It will help the prospective contributors make a decision and contribute. It contains the key details of your thought-leadership, business model, Tokenomics, and the technical architecture of the product of your client as well as layout the project roadmap and the planned use of proceeds envisaged by your client. Turing Labs helps you draft a highly professional white paper which exudes your industry prowess and comes replete with graphics that enable easier readability.

Turing Labs also creates an investor pitch deck for marketing your product to seasoned investors and High Net-Worth Individuals (HNIs) and ultra-HNIs. The investor pitch deck is meant to be a reliable presentation that provokes thought in the investor mindset by exhibiting a bullet-proof value proposition.

 ICO Website Designing and UI/UX Optimization

Prospective contributors to your ICO must be moved up the marketing funnel and led to your ICO website's landing page. The ICO website designed by Turing Labs takes care of the UI/UX designing to provide a thoroughly engaging and interactive environment. Another factor is the website security protocols, which need to be optimized to deter and repel hackers. On this front, Turing Labs has created a dedicated team of professionals that carry out a full-scale audit of the website security protocols. As an auditing best practice, Turing Labs provides the auditing services through a separate entity, Turing Safe. Websites audited successfully are awarded the Turing Safe Seal which is displayed on the website as a proof that the ICO website is secured from hackers.

 Smart Contract Code Development

The Smart contracts are developed to automate the transaction processes in a transparent and immutable manner. Due to the delicate nature of the transaction process, Smart Contracts are permanent and once deployed cannot be reversed or modified. The Turing Labs team codes and tests the Smart Contracts on a test network before deployment. Turing Labs, through Turing Safe, also facilitates a stress-testing of the Smart Contracts by a team other than the one that coded them.

The ICO Stage
Once the Pre-ICO formalities are completed, The Turing Team sets in motion the second segment — The ICO stage.

The ICO stage is where the deliverables of the Pre-ICO stage are marketed to the target audience through a variety of media. The sub-segments of the ICO stage are:

 ICO Marketing and Strategy Planning 

Turing Labs creates a seamless flow of the marketing and brand projection activities that would help enhance the visibility of the ICO and time its launch for maximum attention across the internet.

 ICO Marketing and Outreach

Turing Labs, through its vast network of contributors and publishers, helps get your PRs, blogs and thought-leadership articles published in globally reputed publications, as well as, create and maintain your company's self-blogging needs. Outreach is achieved by tapping into the list of whitelisted prospective contributors and reaching out to them through email and various social media channels.

A thriving ecosystem is created by the Turing Labs team on forums such as BitcoinTalk and Reddit etc. to engage the visitors, apprise them of your offerings, and other such activities to promote the advocacy of your ICO through Growth Hacking, Community Management, and Investor outreach.

 Seed Funding and Initial Investments

Turing Labs has built a network of seasoned crypto-investors under the aegis of Turing Fund. Through Turing Fund, Turing Labs helps you reach out to potential HNI and UHNI investors by setting up private meetings, arranging summits, and through webinars (Webinar-as-a-Service).

 Crowdsales and Bounty Management

This step is where retail contributors are allowed to participate and buy your tokens/coins. Turing Labs manages the security of your recipient wallet addresses, and takes the marketing up a notch by reaching out to audiences on social media channels, earned, owned, and paid blogs.

In tandem, Turing Labs also initiates and manages the bounty and airdrop campaigns to bring more participants to your ICO by incentivizing their participation.

The Post-ICO Stage
With the wrapping-up of the ICO segment, the Post-ICO phase kicks in immediately which requires overseeing the distribution of the tokens to the respective recipients and exchange listing formalities. The Post-ICO steps are:

 Token Distribution

Token distribution post the ICO is a process that involves calculating the bounty proceeds, factoring in the discounts and referrals etc. Turing Labs performs these calculations in the planning stages of the Pre-ICO segment and oversees the distribution at this stage.

 Exchange Listing

Turing Labs has a network of contacts with various crypto-exchanges and can help expedite the process of exchange listing by bringing down the turnaround time by over 50%. Getting your token/coin listed on many exchanges exhibits to the world that you have faith in your ICO and want to let the forces of free-market principles guide its valuation.

With this, the ICO process is completed and the proceeds can be used to implement the promises of the ICO and add value to the lives of the participants. Turing Labs manages the outreach and marketing campaign of your product for as long as the Post-ICO phase demands it.

Turing Labs ensures client satisfaction by upholding the SLAs, adhering to fast TATs, and above all, a highly pleasant and invigorating interactions and meetings that form the backbone of any association.
