I've chatted with friends randomly before at my bowling league, but took a different approach this time since it was the final day of our bowling league.
Went around with my friend Liz, the 50/50 ticket girl, and asked people if they have heard of Steem or Steemit...and for those interested talked a bit more and explained how to sign up, and some of the basics. Here's Liz and I in action:
It was a great day to do this, especially since everyone was having a good time, and in a good mood. For those interested in the stock market...I took the approach of mentioning how Steem has jumped from $1.50 to almost $3.00 recently. To be fair, I also mentioned that it has fallen from all time highs...but has been rising since it's been traded publicly.
I try to tell 1 person a day about Steemit if the opportunity presents itself. That doesn't always happen, but it is always in the back of my mind. Telling a friend about something you believe in, something that you expect to have great value in the future...why wouldn't you?
