Hi everyone, today I will be talking about the new decision I have made for the improvement of Steem value.

I recently celebrated my 500+ steemit milestone and my entry into the second half on this awesome platform.

Though I made a lot of mistakes on my first 10 posts and also violated rules that steem eco-system frowns at, I was still fortunate enough to get support from Nigeria curators who guided me on how this platform really works.

But I am so happy that i took corrections and also supported other minnows who where going astray(wrong path) now I am happy we are all progressing.

The more time I spend on steemit reading people's write-up, relating with creative minds, I get inspired and motivated by the things I see here, My perception about life in general changed.

Why I decided to promote steem

To whom is much given, much is being expected.

I am not a whale, neither am I a dolphin. My financial state of living has improved, I have freely received more than I have given and also think that others out there need to benefit from this platform too. I strongly feel is high time to spread this goodness.

I really do appreciate other Nigerian steemians like Hive account@ehiboss, Hive account@gbenga Hive account@fisteganos Hive account@destinysaid Hive account@ejemai Hive account@tojukaka Hive account@steem-lagos and others promoting steem.

I may not have gotten to the stage and attained recognition like them but I am grateful with my little achievement and with all joy I will join them on this great selfless service to humanity.
Hive account@africaunchained I love this name.

My Starting point.

With full support of Hive account@ejemai 's project tagged #project20millionnaija, I will love to organize a Steem Meetup for Northern Nigerians. I'll be leaving Kaduna very soon but before then, there will be a meetup in two locations.

Steem meetup for students - Cooperative College
Steem meetup for Nysc Corpers - Kaduna htq

After passing out from Nysc, my next target will be Abuja (University of Abuja) before I go back to Delta state where my family resides.

Publicity tool

I stumbled upon a media shop while making enquiries for the meetup venues...
I saw a sound box which has inbuilt battery and wireless mic. It can also be used to play songs.
I believe that having this gadget will save me a lot expenses trying to provide light and sound system for my meetup venue. It's also very mobile to carry. What do you think about it? If it's cool, I'll raise funds via post rewards.

It's been fun telling people about steem platform during this period and hope they will all come to the venue

More details and updates will be posted on my blog

But After bringing more people to steemit, What next?

Challenges on steem platform

My first month on steemit, I wondered why most people didn't really know about steemit because it has been in existence for more than a year now. But with time, I got to understand that steemit is "comprehensively broad" to understand. Yes I am using those words because I need to express the way I feel about this platform.

There is never a day I don't learn on steemit,my reading habits has greatly improved, communication skill is being worked upon and I never knew anything about crypto trading or mining.
I was just an entertainer getting ready for my next event.

This is a great community and It should be the best social media platform on earth.

But why does the value of Steem drop? , why do 80% of newbies stop steeming after two week?

The answer is so simple and the truth should be said.

Steemit and other interface is a platform to mine steem by engaging in social activities.

So the value of Steem price will reduce if users find the system complicated or takes them time to understand

Only a few steemian take out time to teach others via different community groups on Telegram, whatsapp and discord

Note: you can't effectively take out time teaching others while other whales concentrate on ripping steem reward pool. That aside. Lolz

What's the solution? 😨

Publicity
I think we should focus more on publicity
Yes, spreading the good new of what steemit has to offer, not just the financial rewards but a platform where we all benefit from in all ramifications of life.

Publicity is the key..

Even Coca cola, Facebook and other popular brands does publicity till date

This will attract more users, investors, traders and the demand on steem will increase which will positively increase the price of steem

2.Curation
What then happens when new users on steem platform do not get value for their creative contents? They simply give up.
I think there should be more curation projects like Hive account@curie Hive account@minnowsupport and Hive account@ocd because they can't certainly reach everyone everyday, and when they don't reach these new users, they give up.
