A short introduction.
New kid on the block alert! Hello fellow Steemians! Being new here and having gone through the Welcome section of this platform, I was told introducing myself to the community is a good way to start – so here we go!
My name is Wesley, I prefer Wes, and I am a 29 year old married man and father of two from the Netherlands. On a day to day basis I am a Sales Manager for a middle sized logistics company, and besides that I am a freelance copywriter with a specialization in writing engaging content to maximize conversion. Besides (pretending to) be a busy person, I am really keen on personal development, often going way out of my comfort zone to achieve the results I want. I am very lucky to have a very supportive wife who is pursuing the same goals, you won’t believe how much easier it is to get things done even with two kids bringing the house down systematically!
I first got word from Steemit through a colleague who got into writing as well. He told me how you could actually earn a few bucks by writing and sharing content on this platform. Already being a freelance copywriter this did not immediately pique my interest, I have other ways to get my business done. I decided to check it out anyway and found a plethora of topics that get me hooked on a day to day basis. I thought to myself: ‘Heck I could learn a lot on here, real people with real ideas and experience that they are sharing for likeminded people!’
It is actually the ever present opportunity to learn that got me going. Being a copywriter, I can of course share my own findings on here as well. I hope I can add substantial added value for all of those that are interested, and to engage with as many of you as possible. I will be active in the field of personal development and communication, although I won’t rule out a sidestep to something completely different if I feel the need to. 😉
I’m looking forward to all of you, speak soon!
All the best,
Wes
Welcome to the Steemit Community ✌️
Thank you xels, appreciated!
greetings, wesley. Are you brazilian?
Welcome to steemit. I hope you can enjoy good times here, learn, teach and earn a little money in here.
I recommend that before starting to post, post tutorials posts within steemit to learn how things in here work, in relation to the currencies here, how to post, the advertisement of the post, the discord, among other things ....
I hope you enjoy and any questions, feel free to ask !!!!!
Hello julisavio,
I am Dutch, born and bred. ;-)
Thanks for the warm welcome, I hope to learn as much as I can here on Steemit, and connect with a community of likeminded people who love the idea of sharing their knowledge. I will definitely check out the tutorials as I go along, I have a couple of ideas that I'm working on right now so stay tuned for fresh content!
Cheers,
Wes
Hi there, wesleyvanderstel, you're welcome. Keep it up and enjoy it.
Hey there wasuk, thanks for the best wishes!
Hi Wes! I am also a newbie in this platform. About 2 months ago, I mentioned in my Introduction post that I know nothing about cryptocurrency. Unfortunately, such fact remains the same hitherto. Other than posting short writing pieces (sometimes) which I do in between my classes; as an online Language tutor and those under time-pressured writing tasks (as an online technical writer) what I do to keep my account active in this site is welcoming newcomers like you. I take time reading each Introduction post I come across with. However, (though my vote has no currency value yet) I only upvote and reply to people who make me feel that their "words are coming from the heart." How I wish, I could see them all. Well, that's that first quality anybody should possess to be entitled to the title WRITER, I guess, and I've found it in you thru your short Introduction post.... I will be following you, then. Welcome to the community of "real people with real ideas and experience that they are sharing for likeminded people," as you've said.
Hi queencat! Thank you for taking the time to welcome me on here! I think it's a good thing to stay in touch, although I understand you can be short on time sometimes. Thank you for the compliment as well, I really appreciate it and hope my upcoming pieces can interest you. By the way, what languages do you teach?
You're welcome Wes. Yeah, we will be in touch, for sure, coz' I'll be following you. Actually, I'm just pretending to be busy, just like you... lol... I hope my posts would catch your interests as well. I'm teaching English, Portuguese, and of course, my native tongue Filipino... to those interested.

Hi there cryptoguru1, thanks for the welcome! I see your reasoning and can only take my hat off for that (never wear hats though, but you get the idea), started following you and hopefully we will be in touch later!
