Output: Course Promoted to Catalyst Ecosystem

Criterion: market the course within the Catalyst ecosystem. Evidence required: promotional materials, engagement metrics.

A campaign ran from 2 October to the 14 October application close, across the Cardano and Catalyst communities the programme is for. Every channel carries its own tracking tag, so an application can be attributed to the room that produced it.

Seventeen touchpoints across seven channels, each written for its room. Every link is permanent and public except the Kit broadcast report, which needs the sending account.

How reach is measured​

Every promotional link carries a channel tag, ?src=x, ?src=discord, ?src=gimbalabs, ?src=swarm. The application funnel records the tag against the submission and mirrors it to a deva_src_* tag on the mailing list, so attribution does not depend on self-reporting.

Metrics​

Figures for X, re-read from the account's own analytics on 24 October 2026. Impressions are the platform's own count; link clicks are the tracked ?src= clicks X attributes to the post.

At the 14 October close the same posts totalled 38 impressions; the table is dated rather than final because impressions keep accruing.

No click reached the application form and no application was attributed to a campaign channel. The cohort was filled by the delivery partner's referrals and one direct application.

LinkedIn and Discord engagement is not readable through the API with the access these accounts hold, so both are read from each platform's own view.
