I joined Steemit months ago but I have never gone on a promotion outing before with my team. I couldn't imagine what I have been missing and I truly regret others I have been missing.
Yesterday with my steemit mentor, @chichieze. The promotion was fun filled all the way to Aka Junction by Aka Road, Uyo.

I knew I was going out, so I had my shoe cleaned, ready for a good outing. It was my first day out on Steem Promotion. I do understand that every promotion needs a good outfit, because first impression does really matters. To promote something special you need to look special so that people won't doubt whatever you say. Looking at your outfit it's already an evidence that what you have to say to them is actually what you say it is. I prepared very well finished my chores and ran some errands for mom. Dad isn't around, he had traveled to a nearby country, Cameroon. For business. After running these errands for mom, I had to knock on @chichieze door for some clearances. Then I went back home and prepared fully for the promotion.

We arrived at the point where we started the promotion, at Aka Junction by Aka Road, Uyo. We stopped there and dropped from the tricycle. Immediately, we saw a guy who was about crossing the road. @chichieze being the leader of this particular Steem Promotion Process decided to set a trail for us to follow. She was bold and smart that I even thought about it as a very simple task. The way she flowed with words the guy was smiling. She even had his attention 100% on the matter, especially when she introduced food for thought.

The day was quite a success as we meet a senior steemit user who started steemit since 2017. He was happy to see us promote steemit.
We also exchanged conversations. The whole meeting with this man can summed up as excellent, he told us how made money with steemit saying there was no other platform like steemit.

Moving on with the group, I learned that steemit doesn't discriminate. It is for everyone, we had some discussion with this woman who was selling night wears. We shared the good news of steemit with her, how she can improve her life with steemit. This time @anitaking was the one to dish the soup deliciously. She has her own style of promoting steemit, her language was superb and this made the woman to flow with us.

Our means of advertisement was the flyers. This means of advertising is very important. It can recruit millions of people into steemit, the designs on the flyer describes many things that probably would take time to explain, we present the flyer to many people and the pictures on the flyer was also what attracts people to steemit.

What I learnt on Tuesday was positive and exact. To promote steemit I need the following:

• I need to be smart.
• I need to be polite.
• I need to flow with good language.
• I need to eliminate shyness (very important)
• I need to start with what steemit is. Etc.

My special thanks will be directed to @chichieze and @anitaking who helped in making this day a successful outing. I learned enough today and I will continue learning more.
