Fuel The Hype-Train!
I have never been a fan of "rags to riches" stories and I've never liked how internet marketers often share bullshit success stories in attempts to lure and deceive those who are looking for an extra income. This is very common in the internet marketing industry, and that is why I personally never fooled anyone with fake screenshots or manipulated reviews when I sold my own products or services online. I wanted to be unique, trustworthy and honest. My credibility and reputation was- and still is extremely important to me, and I have always treated my username as my brand.
- That is in my nature.
That is one of the reasons I love to talk about LeoFinance. I want to talk about the results I've had or what I have accomplished knowing that I am just one out of many users. I am not special in any way, I am not the highest paid author or the most well-known user. I am exactly like the majority of the users on Hive.
Anyone can easily confirm the things I say on Hive and all the other communities. A screenshot of my LEO Power or my earnings is literally impossible to fake, as everyone have access to the statistics. This basically mean that fake success-stories doesn't exist on Hive.
That being said, I can honestly say that LeoFinance (if the results I've had so far would continue) is by far the most lucrative and worthwhile thing I've been part of, or involved with online..
I know, some might think that it's boring to read success-story after success-story, but I truly believe that we should continue to fuel the hype-train for as long as we possibly can..
The meaning of the word hype is in other words: extravagant or intensive publicity or promotion, and I think that is crucial for our success, as long as we are honest. We don't want to promote Hive, LeoFinance or any of the other communities as a personal cash cow.. We've already seen people doing that on Steem (Steemit), and the results from that poor marketing is truly catastrophic and unforgiving.
I have seen both friends and former co-workers leave Steem immediately after they realized that they were tricked by lousy and false marketing and we are looking for long-term users who wants to contribute and become a part of the platform and that is the main reason for me to want the hype around LeoFinance to continue for a long, long time.
You see, when you’re launching a new product, building hype around it before the release date is the best way to guarantee immediate sales. If you look at some of the most successful companies in the world, you’ll see that all of them are doing this..
Apple host events where they showcase their latest innovations and unveil new products. By the time these products hit the market, there are thousands of people queuing up to buy them. The video games industry does this brilliantly as well by hosting events where they give teasers of the new games that they are developing. On release date, you get crowds of people waiting outside stores for a midnight release and they see a huge influx of sales immediately.
Hive is different though because we can't showcase new products like Apple does.. But we can show the world that we are serious and that we are like a shortcut straight into the crypto-world and that we give people the opportunity to change their lives with the use of content.
We also know that word of mouth marketing is flawless, and that we benefit greatly by having tons of people spreading the word of Hive and communities. That is why hype is such a good thing, because it is easier to promote something that you truly believe in, something you love or are passionate about. We want LeoFinance to succeed. Most of us (if not every single Lion) loves the features and the updates we see frequently. We want to push Hive to the moon...
We want to talk about the things we love, and the more people talking about it, the more people will join us. It's literally like a circle. It has no ends. This could continue forever, while benefitting us on a daily basis.
Like any form of 'pay it forward' initiative, word of mouth marketing starts with us. It starts with you and me. We share our knowledge and our experiences with friends and family. We share our links on Twitter and other social media. We spread awareness and we do this in an attempt to reach the masses..
If we change that mindset, to share content on other social medias to reach the masses, or hoping for a millionaire joining eventually due to our massive marketing...
If we changed our mindset & approach, if we thought about trying to onboard 'Bob' or 'Jane' instead of that millionaire, would we do something different? Would you do something different?
I am certain of the fact that we could get hundreds of work-at-home moms to join for instance. Many of them publish content on their own blogs multiple times per week. How about having them sharing content on LeoFinance and/or Hive instead? How about making them feel welcome and to be part of something?
It is when the existing, 'average' users (or stake holders) starts to promote LeoFinance and Hive from their perspective, when they share they own journeys and their experiences...
- That is when we will truly see others jump off the fence.
People listens to wealth, that is an obvious fact, but 'facebook' or 'instagram' users are not likely to invest a lot of money and/or time in Hive because someone wealthy told them so.. They will leave as soon as they realize that this is not an easy, get rich-quick platform.
They are likely to stay and invest both time and effort when they realize how amazing the communities are, or when they see the real potential from another perspective..
We need to help them to see things from another perspective and that is easily done if we share our own experiences. Just look at the recent initiative from 
This is done because people love opportunities to earn, but they also like to talk about things they are passionate about or about things they love.. Many of these stories are from people just like you and me. It's not from 25 different crypto billionaires or from users who've just bought their first lambos..
- And that is important for the masses to see.
How can they not love crypto and blockchain technology when they see potential or if they've had great success with it so far..? - This is where hype and real success stories comes into play.
- You can bring people here by sharing your experience.
I don't know about you, but I would rather have hundreds of smaller accounts than one big investor on board. Even though I can see how a rich investor could change things and benefit us greatly, I don't want one or just a few people having literally all the control over things..
I want a truly strong community, and that is where I think Steem failed. It was too much focus on the large investors and we didn't distribute tokens in a proper fashion.
We are changing that with LeoFinance.
People engage and interact. We make hundreds of comments, making people feel welcome, we reward newcomers and we reward engagement. We distribute tokens far and wide across the entire platform..
This is the opportunity people have been waiting for.. People who struggled on Steem or Hive, this is a second chance of taking action. This is the time to be dedicated and to put in time and effort..
This is the time to grow together with the entire community.
I cannot guarantee that you will earn a months salary within your first week or month. I cannot promise you that you will be rich and wealthy... I can promise you that you will be part of something that has the potential to change your life... But, I can only lead you to the door.
- What you do once you open the door, that is entirely up to you...
If I Can Do It, So Can You.
Look, that is not the usual amount of rewards I make. I have been lucky and I admit that. I have been an active Lion, or a LeoFinance user for 40 days and I have published 44 articles in total. I have made several hundred comments so far and I have been lucky...
But everything is not about luck. It's about hard work, persistence and effort. The more I grind, the higher chances I have to establish myself. That is why we have a bunch of well-known and established authors. They have put in tremendous amount of time and effort.. And they are being rewarded for it.
- They deserve it.
I have made more than 1300 LEO in 40 days of being active.. And that is what I keep. My articles have generated a total of more than 2665 LEO so far, in only 40 days.
That equates to about 33 LEO per day.
At the price of $0.2, that's about 6.6 USD per day or 198 USD per month. I have made $260 in 40 days...
Imagine LEO at $1... Or $5..
That is something we should be talking about..
Our experiences, so we continue to fuel the hype-train.
