Hello steemians,
Today is another day to update you on what is going on here in my local area about my mission of promoting steemit.com
I informed you in my last post of #promo-steem South Africa day #2 and day #3 https://steemit.com/promo-steem/@seyiodus/promo-steem-south-africa-by-seyiodus-day-2-and-day-3 when I was about to round up, that I meet some ladies at the entrance of the building I am staying. We talked and afterward put our meeting to the following day which was yesterday; day #4.
They were unable to meet with me. In fact, I did not even see them at all, but I have not given up on them.
Later that day #4(yesterday), I meet with a couple. I introduce them to steemit .com. The wife was happy and accepted to join. She said;
I will be happy to join because it will keep me busy at home since I have stopped working. I am in my last stage of pregnancy and I am always bored at home doing nothing. Than for introducing steemit to me.
The husband on the other hand did not have interest in it. He said:
Thank you ma but I am always very busy. I don't even have time to check my social platform acounts. I am so sorry but I won't be able to join. My wife can go ahead with it.
I told him that I understand the nature of his work that he is excused. I rounded up with them and took their leave. I did not get the wife's picture due to her being pregnant. She actually refused.
My face is so puffed. I have a big nose and I can take picture with this my bumpy tummy. She said.
That was all for day #4.
Day #5 which is today is still going on fine. (Thanks for asking about my day☺️). I was at home until around past 4pm when I decided to go to the saloon. Then I will use the opportunity to speak with people. I reached my saloon but I did not speak with any one until I finished my hair. Do you want to see my hair style?😃 I am having afro. Nothing much.
I later spoke with three guys that are around. The lady that did my hair is a little bit older and did not even have interest in social platforms and another man like that.
Two guys were working in the internet cafe in the same room with the saloon. It was actually demarcated because it's a big shop, and the other guy is a stylist in the saloon.
The two guys that were working at the saloon have interest in steemit.com but they complained that they have joined a platform like that which makes them to earn my blogging, doing daily activities and stuffs for earning and when the time comes to withdraw their earning, the system ask for their banking details to verify if they are the owner but the removed their money and never put any earnings their.
It was so disappointing that i will think twice and do my finding before I can join any other site to earn something. Said by one of the guys.
I later explained to the three of them in full about what steemit.com is all about and that they will not pay a dime to register or withdraw from their account. I used my account as an example and also show the account (It was the first post that was on the trending list as at the time I opened it), telling them about the potential earnings and the way it works if they can give it their best shot.
They all agree to join and we further talking about how steemit.com could benefit most people. I talked to the main guy who runs the cafe and he agreed for me to paste a poster in there for people to be aware of a means to have fun and also earn through it.
I succeeded with three people today and a pregnant woman yesterday😉. In the near future, I know it will be more fun talking with more people at the same time.
Thanks for reading my update. More to come.
