I think something you're missing in sweet and jerry's success stories is that they brought followers from outside of the platform. People were already familiar with who they are so they just amplified that success through steemit.
I would like to see a success story where someone starts with 0 followers and earns each one organically. After almost 3 months I am just approaching the 500 follower mark, and maybe 5 of them upvote my content.
Thanks for your feedback, @timeshiftarts!
Please continue posting quality content and interacting with your readers/viewers and the results will come.
@sweetsssj's success didn't happen overnight.
I'll keep working at it and finding things I enjoy writing about! Thank you for the encouragement.
You're welcome!
That's great attitude, @timeshiftarts!
You've gotten almost 500 followers in just two months, so this means they like your content and something else about you. =)
Keep Steeming and you'll get better and better results.
