As the Gary Vaynerchuk adage goes, marketers ruin everything.
TV Commercial Breaks.
Internet Popups.
E-mail Spam.
Message Boards Banner Ads.
Search Paid Listings.
YouTube Pre-rolls.
Facebook Sponsored Posts.
Snapchat. Branded Content.
Steemit.
How long do you think Steemit has before the cats come?
Since native advertising is not part of the fabric of Steemit, marketers will have to be really thoughtful about how to market on Steem. It will be all about creating relationships. Or at least, faking it believably with Chinese click-farms.
Either way, it's inevitable that marketers will eventually crack Steemit.
