STEEMIT- BEYOND JUST GETTING REWARDS

---

Have you considered making steemit a tool to drive your business forward, other than just posting and waiting for rewards? Most people here and i use to think of it as blogging and getting paid which is very correct and more sensible than wasting time on Instagram and Facebook.

That was the idea of this marvelous platform, but do you know so many things can be done via steemit aside waiting for 7 days to get rewards?

Truthfully? have been brainstorming trying to see how steemit could help my personal business here in my country, although cryptocurrencies are not fully embraced yet, but we are getting there.

And so it occured to me: most of the great guys hete are business owners and individual bosses, why can't i just seek for their professional advice on improving my clientelle? I could use some international approach to spice up what i do.

Few people here know what i do; i sell a database management software packages to private schools in my country and manage it for them. It is a web based application so i try to sell to neighbouring countries.

There are many alternatives to it so some jackass competitors all in the name of despiracy sell similar packages way below market value which has become a real pain in the ass for me and some other small firms too who still stick to our standard prices. The good thing is this assholes always mess up in the long run which gives my business some kind of edge because most clients try to consult my firm back and ask to run my software packages as remedies to theit follies.

But the bad thing is, it takes freaking whole lot of time, some of this clients stuck with this inferior packages for a long time before swallowing their egos and give my firm a call.

So thanks to Steemit, i was able to engage myself with some professionals:

@lukestokes
@kus-knee the Old Dog.

Hey, this guys are international business men with vast experience, what was i thinking before now? Although it wasn't easy to amass enough courage consult them, but with my 3 months rumning here i was able to man up to the task and talk to them.

My main reason was, who is going to talk to a complete stranger about a business that it's not certain existed? Or how are the gonna have tome for me out of their busy scheldules? But with great pleasure, here is the screenahot of my brief chat with the maestro @lukestokes :

My attitude after talking to him and getting his responses was positive, even though i still wish to talk more with him when he is less busy. Same feelings when The Old Dog gave me green light to talk to him and explain the nature of my business.

Is it not wonderful what steemit had done? Bringing me up close and personal with some pros and real life coaches, people i can not afford to pay in cash.

Right now all i could say for myself is; i got more than what i was expecting from this platform and it is a priviledge to me and many of us to be on Steemit. My profound regards to :
