The STEEM purists will hang me out to dry. Nevermind, here goes:
Lady fucking Gaga? A means to an end, well that's the plan anyway.
I'm never going to become a whale with my other commitments but I love this platform and want to scratch a living out while seeing the platform adopted my the rest of the World so as to put a nail in the coffin of Facebook (a platform that I despise due to privacy reasons). So this is my proposal.
Getting in contact with famous people is ridiculously easy if you know how.
I remember reading this article by Tim Ferriss at the time (2007) about how to get Eric Schmidt on the phone but it took me some time and effort to sharpen my toolbox to deploy with success.
Between 2010 and 2014 I managed to make contact with the top 1% of influencers within my industry at the time. It meant that running multiple businesses (at the time I owned a series of gyms, CrossFit boxes and personal training studios) suddenly became easy with their input. Not that any of those people were directly helping me as such but I could pose them regular questions, ideas and ask for brief consultations on topics that my competitors couldn't. Over time I built up a formidable amount of market intelligence to base my future business decisions on.
Ghost Yeti's Plan for Financial Success on Steemit
1) First things first... Steemit needs an affiliate referral program!!
2) Under this affiliate referral program, every Steemhead would receive a referral link with could then be used to give to a friend, family member or... SOMEONE FAMOUS :)
3) Once that person opens an account with your link, you receive a micro-kickback from their earning. You get rewarded for bringing not just more people to the platform but for bringing in quality curators.
Operation Lady Gaga & Kanye.
My crazy plan is to then cyber stalk the hell out of these two, on-board them to the Steemit platform, watch the STEEM #money kickbacks roll in and suddenly I'm sitting on a pile of these badboys...
To wrap things up, I'd filter off 20% of my newly earned #steem to a worthy charity close to my heart to balance my karma for devising this devious, insane plan in the first place.
