Hahahahaha I am actually laughing at the title of this piece. I could remember that common lingual parlance used to prevail on prospects to join steemit program. Most Steemian recruiters try to make it appear as simple as possible so that prospects would register, right? Hahaha. Honestly, it pays them right. Most people would avoid any vocation involving solitary sitting for several hours; people don't like any scheme requiring efforts and things like that. They would rather go with programs that promise short route to wealth and in the process get scammed because most of those programs are scamy piece of shits.

Many Steemians have had to be part of this program with much enthusiasm and expectations that it will be an easiest route to financial success. And unfortunately most of those with this sort of mindset do not consider it appropriate to conduct their own research to be able to know those pertinent factors that make success here inevitably achievable. They would rather be whirling away time scanning through the trending page. Or repeatedly visiting their invitee's page to have a glimpse of his earning performance.

Having been done with that, they would hurriedly make a low quality article and spend the rest of the day staring at the computer screen for God-knows-who to upvote them😂. After several times of zero earnings, most will quit and call steemit a scam (and unfortunately nobody cares😂), while some sensible ones will begin to ask questions and begin to get appropriate answers from established steemians.

Personally, I prefer luring prospects into steemit program using easy money making strategy. And I am telling you from experience and as someone who had recruited a whole lot of people, that this is the best strategy for getting people's attention. I had experimented with many strategies in the past 10 months and can only attest to the efficacy of presenting steemit program as an easy money making scheme.

I do this because I believe that first approach matters; getting the persons attention is important. After the person must have shown interest by signing up, I would then let him know the real truth and how to go about everything. Most of my recruiters are still active till today.

Steemit is hardwork; you not gonna earn a dime until you learn to work for it

This is the hidden truth most newbie Steemians don't get to appreciate — STEEMIT IS HARDWORK. You think spamming on other persons' blog posts will get them to visit your blog; think again. The chance of that happening is 1 in a billion. I spent the whole of yesterday trying to perfect a @steemstem targeted article that I finished writing since 2:30pm. Why? Because I have been on break from writing @steemstem targeted articles for the past 5, 6 months and within that interim, the guidelines for making such posts have changed and they have become more strict at ensuring that all images being used by authors are CCO compliant.

Google's CCO licensed images that are relevant to articles are not easily found. Beside, you still have to follow a certain pattern of citation to reference the images, which I am new to. Hence, I had to learn everything that same yesterday, thanks to @samminator who was of immense help via communication on whatsapp. At 10.30pm I was still trying to figure a way around this. And eventually, I was able to make the post at exactly past 11.00pm. I literally spent the whole of yesterday in front of my laptop. Thankfully, I achieved my aim and @steemstem curators visited.

I decided to share this difficult experience to demonstrate to you that steemit is hardwork. There are many curation projects newbies can target but unfortunately not many of them are ready to learn. And truly, learning isn't easy either😂! Many newbie Steemians wouldn't have continued to push forwards if they were in my shoes yesterday.

You must know and appreciate the fact that here is a jungle. Only few people cares. And there are a lot of competing interests from all of the world in every curation community project. So you have got to work hard to stand out and get rewarded appropriately. The hidden truth is the fact that success here is hard work. Now that you have known it; learn everything there is to learn, roll up your sleeve and get down to work. It definitely worths it. With time, you will know and appreciate it. Thanks for reading.

Yours truly,
