The last couple months I've helped new Steemians by posting about them and asking you, my followers to go check them out.
Thanks to your warm introductions, upvotes, and some followers they had a great start on Steemit.
I promised to send them the SBD earned on the posts I made about them to be transferred to their accounts. This post is proof that I kept my word. Thanks to you guys I was able to send out over 136 Steem Dollars!

Why I Think This Method Works So Well
Someone new to Steemit can sometimes et lost in the noise and when they post their introductory post and no one responds it can be very disheartening.
If you have built up a following and you ask them to go visit the intro post of someone you signed up to Steemit, their first impression can be a very warm, responsive community and that can make all the difference in the world even if those first visitors don't follow them.
The feeling that there is someone listening and responding with a nice hello is sometimes all it takes to keep a new user here. Sometimes their first intro post does very well and they get their first followers.
A week later when I send them the SBD my post earned talking about them they get an extra kick of encouragement.
So, when you introduce someone to Steemit not only should you resteem their post but try making a post about them to your followers and transfer what your post makes to them. The retention rate of people I've done this with has increased dramatically and they love you for it.
What ideas do you have to help new users?
