Greetings to all and sundry on this great platform, I am delighted to write and share this important post here in this community. It was a great opportunity to be part of this great campaign, and I really enjoyed it a lot. I would like to express my experience here in this post and I hope that you would follow me as I share them here.
General Overview of the Campaign
This is my first time participating in the Zealy campaign and I must say that this is really an interesting and amazing experience as I was able to learn a lot of new things and also earn some LEO tokens as well. When I was referred to join this campaign, I refused not to participate in the first place but later after 4 days or so when the campaign started and people were participating in it. I decided to give it a try. Guess what, when I joined it was quite easy and simple to complete the tasks for the quests. It all started from the following of certain accounts here on Leofinance and also on other Web 2.0 platforms such as Twitter and the likes. It was later when the Adventures were added to the quests that I realized the campaign would be a bit tough and would need more time to partake and accomplish. It was then that I started to give my all to this campaign. All things being equal, I was able to follow it up till the end of the campaign and I did enjoy it the most. This campaign has really introduced me to every bit or corner of the LeoFinace community and now I know everything about LeoFinace just at my fingertips without much stress or research needed. I wasn't that much of an active member of LeoFinance but with the introduction of this campaign, I have stayed here and I must say that I am really enjoying this platform more than any other community currently.
If it helped you learn more?
Yes, it has helped me a lot. I must say that I have learned new things from the campaign and I am hoping more and new adventures are added to help me acquire more knowledge. I have acquired a lot of new skills and knowledge from this campaign and they include the following.
First of all, it has taught me ways of improving my articles on the Leofinance community and this includes the use of Leoglossary. Leoglossary is a group of words or words that are used to help easily search for the meaning of a word in an article, instead of searching for the meaning from a different website. It makes it easier for a reader to have the definition with just a single click on the word.
Also, another skill or knowledge I acquired from the campaign is the use of SEO in our articles. SEO makes it easy for people to have access to the keywords in one's articles. This tends to make it easier for your article to be found easily by people that make a search and a keyword from your article is found in that search phrase. SEO articles make it easy for your article to be known or publicized on the internet.
This Zealy campaign has also helped me to be more confident in recording behind the screen. I was the kind of shy type when it comes to recording videos or something of such, but through this campaign, I have learned how to create video content on hive blockchain as well. In addition, I have learned new ways of art skills although I am quite good at that already I can say that I have made an improvement in that after this campaign.
Also, this campaign has helped me to learn more about cryptocurrencies, politics, business, finances, and many others.
If it kept you engaged?
If I want to talk about engagement when participating in this campaign then I would say that it was the best. Yes, It has really kept me more engaged, and thanks that we were on vacation by then. I have never been engaged and too busy like that before but all thanks to this campaign. I was so occupied that I never had time to write in other communities. I was always writing articles on the Leofinance community and I was really happy about that as well. I mostly do write posts throughout the week but with the aid of this campaign, I have been receiving the busy Buzz for the week several times during the campaign period. The use of threads was also one of the best ways of engagement that I was involved in during the campaign period and even as of now, I am currently engaged there as well.
If it was fun?
Yes, there was a lot of fun participating in this campaign, especially during the times when challenges and battles were introduced into the campaign. I did enjoy the time when we were asked to slay the bosses but unfortunately, I wasn't aware that it started on that Friday, so when the first update was given, I lost a bit of hope because they really gave me a huge gap to cover. I did my best to slay two bosses at the end of bosses slaying battle. Also, the last battle which involved the Three Armies Battle was also fun and my Army (#brownlions) emerged in second place. Most of our members weren't that active to participate in that but we managed to conquer the #whitelions and take the second place. Other areas where it was fun include the Artist Adventure, the Vlogger adventure, the Influencer, and the Finance Bro as well. Generally, everything about the campaign was fun and I really did enjoy participating in this campaign.
If it was helpful in Social Media?
One thing I liked about this campaign was about sharing the knowledge or the entries of our articles on other social media platforms such as Twitter, and also Medium. In doing that, we were able to get the attention of people that were not a member of the Hive blockchain and also the Leofinace community as well. This was able to get a lot of members onboarded on the Hive blockchain. There was no harm in sharing our articles on social media platforms, it really helped a lot, and I admit to that as well.
If you think it helped Leo reach more people?
Yes, just as I stated above, in this campaign one of the requirements was the sharing of our articles on other social media platforms. Also, the invite and partnership adventure quest also helped to bring more active members into the LeoFinance community. I was able to bring four members on board using my invite link and also I think others too would have joined the platform through the links that I was sharing on the social media platforms. One of the best ways that Leo was able to reach people was through the partnership quest that was introduced in the campaign. It made most of us search and look for non-hive projects, where we have to link them to the LeoFinance community so they can possibly collaborate and work together if possible. I was able to get one but it was a hive project I think they really appreciated me a lot for doing that.
What would you change?
Basically, I would say that everything about this campaign was well-planned and I loved everything about it as well. Maybe, the only thing I would love to see changed is the duration of the campaign. It seems it was too long and it really made others to even give up in the latter part of the campaign because it became tedious and tiring for them to partake. I also nearly gave up, until I realized that I can't just give up after I burned all night to come that far. Even though I started a week after the campaign was launched but I was able to make it into the top 10 on the leaderboard and I was placed in 9th position after the campaign period was over.
What would you keep the same?
Basically, just as I said earlier, everything about the campaign was splendid, and I think all the adventures were quite okay to accomplish although some were tough and difficult to do. I would like to see all the adventures being maintained and probably reduce the number of quests and the duration. Also, the reward pool and how it was distributed too was cool and okay as those that grinded most had more rewards, this would allow Lions to grind more next campaign if it is organized.
