Getting Past Facebook's Shadow-Ban to talk Steemit.

Over the past few months I have been using facebook less and less.

In fact one of the things I do most on facebook is frequent steemit related groups and have started adding steemians I like as friends. I find myself wholly underwhelmed by facebook these days in general but when it is filled with steemit posts and steemit related talks, I am in!

Having conversations about steemit publicly on facebook helps to change people's "too good to be true" mentality and open their eyes to the fact that Steemit's community is vibrant and thriving and that people really ARE making money.

Yesterday, thanks to Hive account@winstonwolfe posting I was able to take part in a conversation on facebook with Hive account@sykochica and was able to connect with her on facebook. I had followed her blogs for awhile but had never had a back and forth like this on facebook with a fellow Steemian. The conversation also went on without me and continued to be influential to those fence-sitters I wanted to share the interaction:

I had already been using facebook to create hype about steemit but I am taking a page from Winston's playbook in the future and creating meaningful conversations with other steemians to help sell our cause.

It is important to convert people on facebook. We have a huge audience that is already mindlessly clicking and scrolling for free. It may take a bit to unbrainwash them but it is definitely possible!
