Are You Whoring Yourself on Social Media & Not Getting Paid? 100degrees Steemit Intro by Steemitup.club

How many hours do you spend "working" for Facebook, Twitter & Instagram every day?

If case that doesn't register well in your head, let me break it down for you:

1. You posted (codename: social whoring) something on those social media platforms.
2. You get your friends and connections to interact with it.
3. By doing that, you are helping the platform owners pull in traffic and engage their "customers".
4. You commented on the content of others. Your friends saw it, and they, too, join in the conversations.
5. While all of you are spending time "interacting" on the platforms, you're being shown ads. Companies are paying the platform operators money to show ads, and you are helping them create the necessary "pull" to attract others.

So, is the picture clearer now? You are essentially "working" for these platforms.

Best part is, are you even on their payroll?

You see, while other companies may need to pay their sales and marketing people to draw in traffic and engage with them, you are essentially doing it for them. For free!

You spend time writing a blog post, took epic selfies/wefies and recorded an educational video, posted it on the platform. And you get…. Likes? Let me know if those "likes" can pay for fuel and food.

Now, if you are okay "whoring" yourself for free on these platforms, then sure, I'll let you be. As a matter of fact, watch this nice kitten video and share it on FB later. Get your friends to watch it too, so all of you can be entertained with more ads.

But if you want to make some money for your "work" for once, then read on.

ENTER: STEEMIT

Imagine this: you posted your content on this platform, and when others "like" it, you get paid. Best part, because they like your content, your friends get paid too. Yup! Mindf*cked, right? I mean, what other platform in the world lets you make money by "liking" other people content?

Yup, that's Steemit for you, the first ever social blogging platform that rewards content creators and curators alike!

I can go on and talk more about it, but I figured it's easier if you just watch this video below:

In the video, you would have heard the term "blockchain", which is the very technology Steemit is built on. That's the "engine" that is powering all the 800,000 users, who had been enjoying a total reward payout of over $40 million rewarded since June 2016.

And if you're wondering how much is one Steem today…

Yup! One Steem = RM13.53!

As a matter of fact, in the 3-month period of November 2017 to January 2018, Malaysian Steemit users have earned close to RM1.5million!

Yup, if you are starting to feel a little dumb for not posting those engaging content you had been creating on Facebook to Steemit, don't worry. I joined the boat rather late too, but the good thing about this platform, you can join today and still be among the early adopters.

Bet you have loads of questions now about the platform, such as:

• How does Steemit work?
• What kind of content can go on it?
• You mean I can even post photos like what I do for Instagram?
• Is it illegal to earn Steem?
• And the ever popular one, "Where the money come from?"

Let me save you the time. Why not just join us in our next 100degrees Steemit Intro Meet Up, and we will demo to you how the platform works.

FAQ:

Q: Is this an event where you guys try to sell me something?
A: If "sell you something" means time-share, MLM business opportunity or high-ticket seminar or course, then no.

Q: Seriously, what’s the catch?
A: Really, no catch. We just want to build a bigger pool of local content creators, because together, we will be making more money online.

Q: Ok, that starting to sound scammy.
A: It’s true. Let me put it this way: when there’s a bigger community here, we will be able to upvote, comment and show support for each other’s contents. When that happens, both the creators and curators will earn Steem.

Q: Huh? Everyone get’s paid?
A: Yup, that’s the magic of Steemit. Whether you are posting contents, or commenting/upvoting on other people’s contents, you will get paid!

Q: How’s that possible?
A: Ok, I can throw you terms like blockchain technology, cryptocurrency, mining etc, but let’s use this simple video to explain.

Q: Ok, after watching the video, I'm still confused.
A: Why not come over to the 100 degrees session and talk to our community members. And it’s not just us, because you’ll also meet regular members (normal people like you and me) who are making money off their contents on Steemit. The worst case, you’ll lose two hours evaluating an opportunity that you may or may not regret not hearing about earlier (we have too many missed opportunities like that too). The best case? You’ve just found a side income that can help you relieve the financial burden, pays off some loans here and there, or even go for that trip you’d been postponing.

If you read this far, there's only three things I can think of:

1. You are not seeing anything interesting on Facebook, which in this case, you should totally sign up for this event. Because nothing is sweeter than making money sure while being active on social platforms.
2. You are really want to get paid for your time and don't want to "whore" yourself for free on Social Media anymore. Well, looks like you just gotta sign up for a Steemit account and come for the meet up, so you have a nice head start in your earnings.
3. You just love to read my writing, which in this case, why not come over and we can meet in person?

See ya!

Wait, why's Mav posting on Steemit nowadays?

Well, unlike other blogging and social media platform, Steemit is the only platform that allows me to earn cryptocurrency when I engage with it. Yup, one Steem is about USD5, and you, too, can earn Steem Dollars every time you:

• Create content (articles, blog posts, podcasts, videos, photos)
• Upvote (like) other people contents
• Comment on other people's posts
• Have discussions, share opinions etc!

Yup, basically it's the very same thing you're doing on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc all along!

The only difference? For once you can earn a nice income on the side!

Sign up for a free Steemit account, and you can thank me by coming back and upvoting this article. And guess what, you will earn Steem too for doing that! #awesomehttp://u.cubeupload.com/maverickfoo/61bgraphicstockyoungbea.jpg
