My Action items for building up the @Informationwar + future projects/goals.

in #informationwar7 years ago

Lately I have been helping build the @Informationwar #Informationwar community as many of you have noticed!!! This recognition was noticed by the community and I was recently voted to be the successor to all Informationwar accounts on steemit/social media/Discord should there be an emergency or @stevescoins just decides to quit one day.

I am affirming my committment here publicly and on the blockchain, that I will continue the #Informationwar effort, grow our community, work with community members and leaders on projects, and continue to provide tutorials/support/help on any issues.

I am going to lay out some facts on where we are as a community so far, where I see us going in the next 30 days to 90 days, and what my plans are to help build the community!

1. Facts About @Informationwar

  • Founded by @stevescoins in an effort to fight against propaganda, debunk MSM lies/narratives, provide tools to secure liberty and freedom. @openparadigm joined very early on and helped to curate/resteem/engage to build community.

  • @ausbitbank has been a great help that we really appreciate, since the beginning has upvote followed whatever the @Informationwar account upvotes, typically his vote gives out 30 cents to 50 cents(higher when Steem/SBD is higher)

  • Our Discord Currently has 43 community members, click to join!!!

  • We have 100+ unique people who have used the #Informationwar tag on Steemit

  • The Delegated Steem Power to the @Informationwar account(3,352) +Its own (355) totals Steempower is 3,707 or roughly a 40 to 50 cent upvote, thank you to all the backers!

  • We have 4 people following the Curation Trail @truthforce + @metalmag25 + @jdc + @wakeupnd . By Following The Curation Trail You Can Help Build The Community!.

  • Currently, when a post is voted on with 100% by @Informationwar we are able to give a reward of about 90 cents to 1.60 USD(depending on steem price flucuations)

  • We have weekly meetings in our discord where all community feedback is heard/debated and put into action!

  • I have a community podcast where I talk with fellow community members, anyone in our community is welcome to join for a 1 on 1 or they can participate in the Weekly Podcast that we do after our Discord meeting is over

  • A #memewar tag is being started to help serve as a respository of memes you can use to combat propaganda/censorship/lies

2. Where I see us going in the next few months to a year

  • Within the next 30 days I see that our Discord has a good potential to organically grow from 43 members to somewhere near 80 to 100. I personally am messaging everyone in the Discord and who uses the Informationwar tag to let them know how they can help Delegate/Upvote Follow/Resteem and I expect our delegation to grow from 3,700 to 4,500 or so, and our curataion trail to go from 4 upvote followers to 20. The @Informationwar account should be able to give upvotes worth 3 to 4 USD for a 100%

  • Within the next 90 days I expect our community to grow even larger as the result of social media campaign outreach to Facebook/Gab/Reddit/Twitter/Youtube. @stevescoins is actively creating social media account for those platforms that will be used for this. Our Discord should be somewhere around 200 +members within 90 days from now, our delegated Steempower will likely grow to 6,000 to 7,000 total, and our curation trail followers should be somewhere around 70 to 100, which would give the @Informationwar account an upvote of possibly 10 to 15 USD for a 100%(of course if steem crashes that is a different story!!!)

3. My Plans To Help Build Community

  • Keep doing what I am doing now + more!!! heh

  • Continue to recruit community members for Discord and alert people to our #Informationwar effort

  • Actively communicate with team members

  • Do podcasts with Youtubers and people with a large following so that we can recruit better

  • Create more initiatives like #memewar to help spur creativity/shareability/ability to reach more people(on steemit and other social media). Because sharing #informationwar and #memewar links from steemit on other social media can be a good recruitment tool

  • Create standards and analyze data to become efficient

  • Encourage other group members to come up with their own ideas/resteem/share content on steemit and social media to grow our community

  • In the future bring on a few more moderators + 1 or 2 curators for the @Informationwar account so that we have better coverage when we have 100s of members in the community

That is about it for now, thanks :)

Wanted to let you know too that not all of your support comes from Discord. I am wary of things I do not understand and there are some red flags when I google it as a service. Could just be my reluctance to try new things ( I was late for everything from AOL, Facebook to even a cell phone).

But I do have you and many of the group in my feed here and usually upvote several articles per day. A few even I have resteemed. I have been invited to post using the informationwar tag a few times by some of the members, but honestly I think it best I support the way I am. Most of my contributions would be better suited as support, as my posts would mostly either deal with history to some extent or my feelings on what is going on now. I keep myself out of the loop on so much now, having disconnected from cable 9 months or so ago. Haven't done Facebook in about the same amount of time. Really, I only read of what is going on from mostly the posts you all have been writing about.

Keep up the great job and know that you can't measure your growth solely from discord.

Hello!

Completely understandable if you did not want to be in the Discord chat. That is just where we have a big group chat and hang out(more of a social networking thing). Once a week we have a community meeting on there and all are welcome to join into a chat to talk about agenda items/action items/current events/whatever. There is a voice chat server anyone can join into as well.

Chatting is pretty addicting and can take up a huge chunk of time. I try to limit my activity in such things, so believe me when I say it is probably the best thing to do if you want to be productive :)

One of the best ways for a truth based movement to grow is by networking with people, please feel free to network with any of us on steemit if you would like, we had a short list we keep of community members/writers who want to be included.
