When I heard about this contest from
Hive account@cinderz, I was thinking maybe it's time for me to promote Steemit to my friends and family! Honestly, I never invited or endorsing this great platform to anyone. Wanna know why? I want to learn all the schemes and rules in Steemit before I will promote to everybody. I want to show to them or prove that this is not a scam blogging site. Promoting something needs proof to make them believe.
Here are some of my ideas to promote steem
Sharing the platform in different social media which is noticeable. In this way, people may get interested what's this all about which can help to build the audience. I will share all my successful previous blog, where my post got curated for instance. It will catch their attention seeing my post that I earn in blogging without investing any penny to register this site. Comparing to other social media, this platform is quite different from others. Convincing them to join especially people who need extra income while staying at home. This site is perfect for people who love to write, have talents and skills, and even flaws are allowed on this site. Some may say they are not fit to join because of lack of confidence in writing a blog. I will make them build their confidence to join because honestly, I'm not a writer or a blogger. I just want to learn more and discover myself what I can do and offer to the community. Yes, I spend too much time in Steemit, but at least this site is the right place to learn while earning. It will enhance your creativity and motivates you. I used to spend too much time on other social sites before, but it's not worth it, it's just wasting time. I'm not against the other social media, I'm just loving steemit.
Planning or inviting friends to meet up or come to your place. When we talk about meeting them just to promote steemit is not easy for me. My idea will be like this, I will invite them for lunch or dinner at my place, sharing our daily life, thoughts and etc. And I will find the right timing to introduce to them about how I earn in blogging. I know it may not catch their attention at first, but showing to them my wallet and the site itself to prove that this site really essential for people who want extra income. Explaining maybe complicated, but doing it step-by-step will help them to understand, especially the cryptocurrency thing.
Leaving a note in the public place. I got this idea from some of steemians. Endorsing steemit to a stranger is a little bit awkward for me. I'm afraid they might neglect it or ignore or think that it's a scam. So other ways to promote steemit in a public is not a big problem. Think about eating in a restaurant. Make your first move by saying the golden words and smile to them, be gentle with the staff or crew. With that honest intention, you already win their attention. Before leaving in the restaurant, you can leave a note in the table where they can easily see along with the receipt. I'm sure they might be curious what steemit is all about. You can't easily explain to them while they are working, so better leave a note and convince them to join this platform. But we don't know the assurance if they get interested in it so make sure you will do your best and use your convincing power.
I hope in this simple tips, I can invite someone to help others not just to earn but to discover their self what they can do to be better in their skill, knowledge or talents. Giving some tips and advice to them can help and telling them the truth about the journey in steemit , not as simple as they think, need to work hard and never give up in terms of losing hope.
