The 20 people who came in through me left because it was too had to work here and they got no traction on their posts. The last person who tried to join never got approved or got any any response by steemit and would not try again with one of the dapps. I will not send people to steemit again, but instead will send them to one of the dapps.
I will be all in for this tomorrow in my social media. We need more people here, and this cannot come too soon.
Well we need to get the idea out of the people's head that Steem is a money printing mashine and that you get those tokens for free here I guess :-)
I loved the following statement from @starkerz in that context:
Steem is a mechanism to reward voluntary action.
The secret lies in voluntary action...:-)
I would always keep sending people to steemit.com, but also informing them well about the option to purchase an account and instantly sign up. I mean who doesn't have a dollar to pay for an account if they really wanted to be part of it?
Let's rock'n'roll in our networks... in about an hour - yay!!! :-)
My people are content creators who already make money on other platforms and do not have to buy in - that's a sticking point.
I think we might have good chance at getting small business to buy in and come for the alexa ranking. But for my content creators, it's the dapps like share2steem and steempress that I think they would go for. Hoping anyway :)
Well I wouldn't call it buying in when you spend 1 dollar for an account :-) If you don't wanna spend that 1 dollar, you're not worth joining this network IMO. Account creation on the blockchain comes with a cost and somebody has to assume it. If not the account owners themselves, then who? :-)
It's all about opportunities - whether you're willing to take it or not. We won't force people to come here. They just miss a big chance if they stay away.
Trust me, I got a bunch of earfuls when my friends left. They were not impressed when they can post in other places and make good money overnight. Several of them check on me to see if I am still here in this nuthouse.
It works for me, but many are not wanting to jump through the hoops. The words, "blockchain" and "crypto" are drawbacks to steem right now. It took me four months to make the leap after I heard about this place, and those where the reasons I did not want to come here.
They need more than $1 with the rc madness these days. I set up a second account in Jan and it was unusable until I leased 100 sp. I could do that from this account. Others would need to spend cash or find a benefactor. They will if they see the potential, and hopefully soon more will.
Why did they leave?
