The Problem
Getting started on Steemit is hard and those who are committed to producing quality content and building their accounts can use a helping hand. Helping build those minnows takes a commitment of resources including money and time...probably most importantly time.
While many of us would love to have a way to help new steemians to grow to a point of having a vested interest in steemit and help grow a real middle class individually we don't have the resources to make this happen.
At the same time we all are trying to find ways to build out accounts and increase rewards on our posts. Many of us sacrifice some of our growth to help others but by doing so we are hurting our future abilities to help in more meaningful ways.
Solution
Shares purchased with steem will also have the added benefit of growing in value along with the account. This value growth is owned by those who own shares. Keeping it simple, if there are 1000 shares and there is 1250sp in the account each share will have a value of 1.25 steem no matter what the purchase price was.
2 voting pools
The account will be split into 2 voting pools each with its own calculations for the percentage of upvote. Both pools will be 50% of the account.
The first pool is for those who own share in
The second pool is for those who have been chosen to be in the 
Cost per share
Each share of
The cost of a share will increase over time as the account grows giving built in value to those who purchase shares early. This also means that upvote values will increase over time as the incoming steem is used to power up the account, not to lease SP. Feel this is critical long term for guaranteed sustainability.
For the first 2 rounds of share sales, or 1000 share maximum the price per share will stay fixed at 1 steem or 2sp delegated. After this time the price will be recalculated to match the value of current shares.
Using the previous example:
Keeping it simple, if there are 1000 shares and there is 1250sp in the account each share will have a value of 1.25 steem no matter what the purchase price was.
If we start up round three with each share being worth 1.25 steem then that will become the new price and it will take 2.5sp delegated per share.
By doing this each future sale keeps the account value and vote value even for previous share owners. At no time will future sales decrease the value of previous owners accounts.
Share Sale Rounds
Unlike some programs out there we will have limited buying time frames which will start and end based on a post announcing the Share Sale. The first 2 rounds will have a fixed price and from there prices will increase.
The idea will be to sell 1000 shares of
Value to shareholders
Value will be created multiple ways. First each shareholder will get their proportionate share of the upvote pool for the day. So daily upvotes based on your ownership. These votes will be more valuable then if you were to self vote your own posts. The full math will come later, but know that a collective voting account like this has much more value then self voting.
Rewards used to power up. At the very least 50% of the rewards will be powered up at all times. Some rewards will be held in case someone wants to sell their shares, but that steem is still owned by the shareholders. Authors may be rewarded for their time for posting to the account and this reward would come from liquid payout from posts down the road.
Account has SBI shares and Upvote Share owned which will provide it's posts with added rewards to power up.
Account already has SP and Steem sitting in there along with pending rewards to come. For the first 2 rounds of share sales this is a Bonus to those who join early. Future share sales will have to pay a higher price.
Full Disclosure
This program is being run by 
As with any project of this scope there will be needs for funds for ongoing operations and to reward those who put in time. To accomplish this there will be a 10% management fee built into all share purchased. The fee will be in the form of management shares.
At the start we will use all of the management shares to help boost the next account levels so there is added value to them. Over time we will use these shares for different purposes including future growth plans...we aren't stopping with minnows ;) …. and to reward ourselves at some point for the countless hours that have been put in and will be put in making this program a success.
