I want to create a new group
What is this New Group all about?
This group I intend to be all about community promotion. The promotion of the group itself, the users of the group and myself. I see this group as no different to any other group out there which wish to promote the members of its group.
I have an idealistic view in my mind where Individual promotion of the group can reward all.
Who is in the group?
Right now I am one person with a seed Although others have expressed an interest in supporting. As a group, it becomes we not I and we can grow together.
What is the group about?
The agenda behind the group is a selfish one, it is to grow the group account. I believe a strong VP in the group account will provide a better method to providing support to the member than by words and advice alone, This would also provide encouragement for a newer member to the platform and the group to remain with the group and on the platform. I am of a positive attitude that those who join the group early and grow with it will benefit most from their interaction in the group. Those who join later will also be able to benefit, though they will need to display their community spirit for a large upvote from the group. I think this is fair to those who grow the group from its seed to sapling.
What is the group worth to someone who joins.
Initially, the group is worth a vote to you, I would like to start the group with a vote being equal to the level which would receive a payout after the 7 day period. This I firmly hold strong in my belief is why most people join the Steemit community. The possibility of an income. These rewards grow over time and offer more opportunities to vote on other posts and comments too.
Can I post anything and get a vote from the group
Quite simply No!. In the beginning, we will not have the VP to vote everything and every comment. I would also like to promote content which people have spent the time to produce promote their effort, avoiding the promotion of spam posts. I would also like to invite writers of quality posts to write within the group when we can provide them with a small income for doing so.
Will the group do anything else besides vote for a post?
I see no reason why not, as the group develops and grows we can provide more opportunities to more people while still maintaining our growth. like providing a reward for posts outside of the vote given to writers for the group. We will always be open to possibilities for expansion of the role we can play.
What kind of people does the group want to attract?
The group is open to everyone who feels they will be able to assist the growth of others or those who feel they can work within a community to gain growth themselves. We may be more appealing to Plankton, to begin with. We may also begin to focus our attention on one specific task until completed.
If you are likeminded and believe in community growth which helps those in the group to grow together. If you are willing to share your time an effort for the benefit of everyone, Including yourself. We will also have a community chat room on the discord platform. With community and time, we can accomplish more than we can alone.
We look forward to working with you in a positive manner both in Steemit and the Discord communities. We look forward to talking with you and reading your blogs, as we grow in both friends and ability together.
This is a very ambitious and noble idea. Let me know about your progress and I may support it.
I found you through the #payitforward contest (again) 😂 You were featured by @mr-bike. Congratulations and all the best.
Thank you, I will keep you informed, @mr-bike did mention he put my name out there, I did not expect to hear much back. Taking the time to come by I appreciate your interests,
I do realize the ambition is bigger than myself if the roots can grow the tree should bear much fruit. We would also need to be in agreement on the road-map I see laid out for progression and the directions I have originally envisioned
Congratulations! This post has been upvoted from the communal account, @minnowsupport, by Jan23com from the Minnow Support Project. It's a witness project run by aggroed, ausbitbank, teamsteem, theprophet0, someguy123, neoxian, followbtcnews, and netuoso. The goal is to help Steemit grow by supporting Minnows. Please find us at the Peace, Abundance, and Liberty Network (PALnet) Discord Channel. It's a completely public and open space to all members of the Steemit community who voluntarily choose to be there.
If you would like to delegate to the Minnow Support Project you can do so by clicking on the following links: 50SP, 100SP, 250SP, 500SP, 1000SP, 5000SP.
Be sure to leave at least 50SP undelegated on your account.
Having seen some of your interactions and some of the issue that many face, and your commitment to your standards and holding other accountable to their supposed standards, I would for one be happy to join you in your community.
Thank you, I would be needing to have other to keep me in check at times too, It is all too easy to get lost in our own thoughts at times, and veer of the road we previously had planned.Having yourself within the group would be a great asset. It is a long road I think I have ahead with this project. A few familiar faces would boost my mindset. I am waiting at the moment to hear back from a few people who expressed an interest in supporting the project.
The reality of the redfish life is that if they do not join a supportive group, then they are going to have a hard time making any progress on steemit. Redfish are for the most part ignored by the entire community. People who can not cast a one cent vote are looked at as pond scum by a large part of steemit even redfish look at other redfish and say why should I support you, you have nothing to give me. So they go out try to find and impress a whale or orca or dolphin. Minnows think that I'm no longer a red fish, I made it, I have a vote slider, and then they slide it to 1% and give out a shit load of worthless votes to each other and think how cool they are. They, after all made it. So building a community that would vote and support them and the people supporting them I am for.
I am expecting more to pass through the group than to come and stay, I want to try to encourage the promotion of each other within the group. I want to try to avoid it becoming a post promotion group. Opening those doors to the beginnings of earning, I hope brings lifelong members who will also help promote others in time.
I think you are on the right track, I look through a lot of self promotion stuff, some of it, is not worth looking at in my opinion, and there are a lot of places for people to promote themselves.
I am wondering if I would be a good asset to the group. I have only begun to start growing and being more noticed on the platform. I know I need a bit of help as there are still quite a few more things I do not know. What do you think?
Besides my own biased opinion, Cause I already know you and think you're cool. I also think you would attract others to the group as people like to be around cool people.
I think a group needs more than me. I would be delighted to have to have the chance to work alongside you in the new group. If you have any idea's you would like to try, it would be the perfect place. I am still new to the platform myself, we would be able to help each other with different things. The answers we do not know we can reach out to others to assist us with. Learning is part of the project, as any who learns something, reminds us of something we missed forgot or did not know. I am looking forward to working together and hope we can grow some fruitful trees.
I like the sounds of that. Im in! I would love to plant some good seeds and make things grow. So what's the plan on making it happen?
Simplicity approach. Each member who enters the group is a seed Steemit is the soil in which we all grow. It works on votes, Basically ensuring posts from the group all get a payout. If someone posts each day we may not be able to facilitate that, But two or possibly more of their posts can be assured a payout. This is also relative to the size of the group and VP power, So we do not want to start the group with 100 people. We want a few people to start so we can establish boundaries to impose on ourselves, this gives a greater chance to do the things we wish to do and to keep doing them, I would like to reward time as well as quality content, and eventually be able to reward or give a standard payment for writing a blog for the group.We will start the group with 100VP plus. I am waiting on confirmation of some delegation toward this project. I am confident of some of this delegation and positive we can reach the 100VP needed. Everything is in the planning stages until then. If you would like to discuss it more, My DM is discord is always open
You can count on me to contribute when and where I can.
That is all a community can ask of any of the members. Everyone can contribute in some manner along this journey. We all have something we can offer, I will be in need of advice on various things from others in the group as time travels on. I am delighted you have decided to join the group. this is 4 members even before we start the group.
You know i am down. Need to get the base model ironed out and see if there are any tweeks that need to be addressed.
A little simpsons humor to help motivate you.
yup there is a few things need to be finalised. Some key things need agreement from everyone. That's why I left the room, let you guys talk so I am not writing another 4 pages to read through, I am a firm believer in solutions to problems are better than repeating something is a problem. I feel I have a solution for everything at times too. But you guys have the basic ingredients of the cake there, from that we have to work out the measurement of each ingredient and the size of cake we can make.
This sounds like a good idea, I am currently trying to get friends on the platform and coaxing them by saying I will always vote for you 😄 Someday, I will change their minds lol
Btw, I think you regularly make outstanding content, so I featured you in this week's content of PayitForward by @thedarkhorse. Initially, @bashadow introduced me to the game, so I wanted to pass it onto you now and keep paying it forward. At the very least, I hope your post gets more views and votes now. 😁
WOW! Yep WOW! that is COOL! People have complemented before, It is generally someone who I have had some converse in the chat with. Someone I half know or am getting to know. That is a buzz hearing my content is read and shared :) If my standards slip. Let me know, and I will kick my butt back into place.

This is a great idea. :) Would love to get to join this group!
You will be more than welcome. Positive people like yourself will be a great influence unto myself. I am thinking of a few promotion ideas at the moment so we are starting with a promotion or two, won't be an issue.
Oh that's sweet of yah @jan23com. Kindly let me know once you've finalized it.

If I can be of any use I would like to be involved. I wanted to chat to you on discord .... but I'm in distress! I went into discord now and all my channels have disappeared! There's something called whalebot, which I don't know, and everything else has gone, even Gina, newbieresteemday, and a few others.
I m unsure what happened with the Discord, here is a link to the newbie group, from there we can re-add the others
