Hello friends! @ericwilson here. I am so excited to move forward with my idea to gather information and form a marketing proposal in the Hive Proposal System
It started when @nathanmars invited me to be interviewed. The interview was only supposed to take "about 20 minutes" and we almost ended up talking for 2 hours. Here is a link to a replay of the stream on twitter and while you are there don't forget to drop a follow!
My Plan Is Simple
Gather information regarding users on the blockchain so that we can tell the story of how Hive has grown both their brand as well as their Hive wallet.
My main focus is on:
Showing the return on investment when purchasing Hive, staking it (locking it away) and upvoting good content (as a stakeholder you get rewards for doing this known to the community as curation rewards). The more you have staked, the higher your upvote is worth and the more rewards you earn for upvoting.
Showing the return on investment for users who delegate their Hive to curation projects. A delegation means that you allow someone else to use a certain amount of your voting power without it leaving your wallet. People usually delegate to curation projects because of the great ROI and the opportunity to be "hands off" and allow projects dedicated to finding good content do what they are good at without the need for you to watch your account and continue to manually upvote. This is valuable to content creators that don't always have the time to do that here.
Showing the value of projects outside of the community to join Hive and incubate their project in various different ways including creating Dapps (Decentralized apps) and community support.
Brainstorm ideas and creating "Best Practices" for new content creators on the blockchain to include Hive in their community plan.
Show that a mix of purchasing Hive (and staking it), upvoting good content, creating good content, and being involved in the success and growth of Hive will be greatly appreciated and respected by the other stakeholders! Simply put, show your appreciation for our blockchain as you learn about it and we will show you support right back! It is all part of a good marketing strategy on Hive, and we want to learn how to help in the most effective way we can.
Then What?
It is my intention to gather this information to help guide and mentor projects new to Hive to show them what has already worked here and how we can make it even better. As we learn and grow more, I hope to convince a larger project to be our first use case with the @hiveincubation project.
From there, I would expect to have enough information together to really pick up the pace once we are confident in our message and strategy.
Thank you so much for your support.
I currently delegated 1000 Hive power to this project with the intention of rewarding commentors and posters that talk about #HiveIncubator - We hope to have some sort of delegation plan for people that want to support the project as we learn more about what this will become.
My next post from this account will be information I gathered from the top 20 Hive stakeholders. The information gathered can be the first use cases we use. I am tagging those users, if any of them would like to help tell the story, please reach out to me here or on Discord at ericwilson#1388.

Nice..thus should help with retention of users
Basically I have already compiled information on the top 20 stakeholders on the blockchain and have selected some that use their stake to benefit both themselves and the community.
I will be putting that post together so we can start to talk about how Hive can help content creators accomplish their goals!
Hopefully if we can better teach them how to use it, and what the successful people are doing, they can emulate it and improve on it. That should help with retention, absolutely.
This is perfect.. at least another way to help with content
I’m so glad to you took immediate action Eric.
Like initial idea and vision.
Will you be using Twitter as your main platform to kickstart your marketing campaign?
Me too. Kudos for taking action, Eric.
Thanks! Got to strike while the iron is hot.
For now, I am going to stick to building use cases. What we do after I am not sure (yet). Open to suggestions!
Building use cases should be number one priority.
I’m here if you need anything and let’s see others feedback as well
Ay, very nice ideas! Great of you to show initiative and get the ball rolling, Eric. 👏 Will keep an eye out for the data you find and look forward to seeing what is to come 😄
Would zenzo be interested in speaking towards their experience so far?
I mean, we are always happy to chat + we have similar values to the Hive community so I wouldn't see why not.
What kind of experience would you be referring to? About Hive?
Yeah as far as the group's experience so far, if it has helped you, what you like about it, what you hope to accomplish, etc.
As in here on Hive?
Can you tell me little bit about yourself....? And I will do the same if you are interested. Trouble is I don’t know you and I don’t think you know me either :)
Hi @azircon! You are correct, I am not familiar with you!
(@ericwilson here) I started on Steem over 3 years ago (Jan 2017) and started streaming because of DLive. I continued here after the split and continued to work on my content creation for blogging, videos, and streaming!
I am looking to understand from people how Hive has helped them achieve their goals and how we can use that information to pass on to content creators outside the community. It is my hope that we can provide enough use cases to convince some bigger names to consider the value of purchasing Hive, powering up, and putting their content on here to help grow and reward their fans. I hope that we can talk to them about what they are trying to achieve and how we can help! I think Hive is a great combination of economics and talent and we are so passionate we can be a force if we contintue to improve and grow and I think communities will be a LARGE part of it!
