## Benefits to Influencers

>1. Guaranteed influencer payment
>> a) A business/project must maintain a balance of CloutCoin sufficient to support its initiatives. When funds are allocated to an initiative they are time locked for the period of the campaign. If a business/project terminates a initative prior to maturity all influencers are paid out prior to refunding the balance to the business/project.
b) Influencers are paid out weekly independent of the campaign end date
c) When/if the allocated funds are deemed insufficient the business/project account is suspended and no influencers can participate until funds are topped up

# DEMO WALK THRU

intro - I created a partial demo for a social media influencer application, it involves the creation of a token contract and a escrow contract. In which the escrow contract accepts and pays out to the influencers via my native token. I intergrated my native token with uniswap however for the purpose of the demo im running it localy so i created a temp faucet to get things running

show the clout diagram and explain this is the workflow, i acheived creating the erc20 aspects of the project but didnt have time to finish the front end so the demo reflects the core contracted related items

1 - deploy contracts to local BC
> show everone the output from the deployed contract
>
2 - start the app
3 - explain the signup process
4 - explain that the create company and the funding process works
> explain that the calls will be chained but for the demo its important to see the process broken down
> finaly show the companys bal in the timelock contrack
5 - The influencer frintend wasnt completed however the smart contract functions have been written and tested

summary
i created a token
i integrated it with a trading pair on uniswap
i created an escrow contract that accepts and pays my token
i created a basic front end to demo my contracts
