Introduction

Welcome friends to this summary of my activities for the week which ended on 15th November, 2021. Its always filled with activity as a CR and community leader. So here are some of the ways I spent the week that just ended.

1. Getting Promotion Materials Ready

As a community that is full-time into promotion, we usually get our printed materials exhausted quickly. Wnad once we do, we have to reprint them for our promotion campaigns. So on Tuesday, I went to print the fliers and forms while the team left for the locations for promotion. Because of high cost of paper and ink, only few printeries were operational. So it took a long time for me to find a place to print. By the time I was done, it was almost 12 noon. But I was happy to have succeeded in Printing some forms and fliers which would be useful for promotion.

2. Facebook ad for Steemit Promotion

I did a second Facebook ad this week and it was really fruitful. Last week, I did the ad as a normal boosted post. But this week, I decided to experiment with a different style. I did the ad as a proper job listing for content writers. I was surprized to see 25 persons apply immediately. I took done their contacts and funnelled them into a whatsapp group. I mentored them from the group and 4 persons have now done their introduction post. Below are the details of the Facebook ad campaign:

3. Curation activities

As we actively recruit new users, our numbers increase rapidly. Its not such an easy thing to support all of them. However, I understand the importance of supporting member posts with votes no matter how little. Its most painful to members when the posts pay out with nothing. So here are the accounts I use in supporting our members. You can see the voting CSI of each of them

4. Mentorship at the center

This is one area that takes more time than the rest. Teaching newbies about steemit and helping them understand everything is not such an easy job. That is why the center runs everyday except Sundays. We try to mentor new people as well as old members that have questions to ask.

Last Saturday, I, @marajah and @goodness4real spent the whole Saturday mentoring and signing up a total of 7 newbies at the center. We show them how to do their introduction post and how to publish on Steemit. We are happy many of them did their introduction post and published it before we ended the day. You can see their happy faces below
