RE: Looking for Contests and Challenges Organizers
Hi, dear @cryptokannon and all steem colleagues )
Just yesterday I was planning to try to organize some Bouts-Rimés contest on Steemit, as poetry and literature are really my spheres) But I thought I'd do that after the Diary Game (to collect more tokens for that in case I don't find any sponsors, and to prepare the rhymes). But that's something not connected with what you suggested ) So, about your suggestions.
Well, your ideas are very cool. But. I always have BUT))) It may not work with my social media friends if I try to promote Steemit right now. Here are the reasons:
- My Steemit account is too fresh, I'm only 42 days here. Looks like I can't know much cuz I'm a newby (ppl will think so)
- I was telling about Steemit to at least 10 ppl personally. All of them said approximately same: "inform us when you can receive at least $100 monthly, then we'll ask you the details about the platform". The thing is I'm here because I love to write, and some token rewards are just pleasant benefits. But I don't know the same ppl as me(( Other ones will be interested to write only if I show them some defined income they'll receive. Sad but true… So, while I have not much in my wallet, I can't make ppl get interested.
- Just a few days ago a gigantic financial pyramid was shut down in Ukraine. And people are extra careful these days, don’t wanna start sth not sure and new connected with money.
Nevertheless I am not ready to launch a promo campaign for Steemit in my own social media, I can help to do any organization work for contests:
- Check participants' posts and give them points, make participants score list
- Write the recommendations and ideas for creative photos with steem logo for those who don't know what to do
- Help with translations to Ukrainian / Russian
- I can write few kinds of contests mechanics also (based on your ideas, of course).
The first idea is closer to me, to tell the truth.
@antorv thank you for your feedback I appreciate it. As in my post, the rewards for our post in steemit is like a bonus. If we compare it to other social media out there, on steemit you most likely get a chance to get something out of your posting than if you post on other social media out there.
As for people that expect you to get at least 100$ monthly right after they start here without putting any money or invest in steem blockchain, that's almost impossible but still possible.
Steem Blockchain was design based on delegated proof of stake, or in regular words, how much you earn here depends on how much money you put in and how good you can influence those with big steem power on steem to support your content if your plan is just to earn steem with creating content only.
I understand if you don't want to promote steemit heavily on your own social media. But it's not hurt to share what we all in steem community here doing on our social media as this proves that we enjoy doing what we doing in this platform and this platform is an opportunity to build a community and share your passion or hobby and you might get reward in return.
We should think of selling points for promotion, maybe create content and get paid for it sounds too good to be true and people might get frustrated if they didn't get what they expected here.
We are not forcing people to join us, we just promoting what we are doing here.
You are totally right!
But, I know, if I share some quality information on my social media (with explanation, proves, and so on), and do it once or twice, it'll have more effect than if I was posting every day.
It's like selling Avon or Oriflame (or Amway, whatever): if to post about it every day, people get annoyed and no one orders. But if to post once a month, showing some useful info, perheps, one finds clients.
And the biggest and most effective work is personal communication: if we drink beer with a friend and I tell about Steemit, and show my account, that person will be much more interested than if he/ she got known about steemit from my instagram. I belive so.
I think the best if I advertise kinda powerful account of my own. Then people will want the same, might get interested.
My plan is to wait until the end of the Diary Game and then to see what happens, how can I invite ppl to Steemit.
But, as I said, I'm absolutly ready to help with your contests organizing.
@antorv I have checked your account on https://steemworld.org/@antorv you actually have earned more than 100$ worth of steem already for the past 30days, 180$ worth of steem and SBD to be exact.. you can show that numbers to those people already 😄
just SP for them is same as Jesus Christ )))
well, I have a plan, but no hurry🤝
