#promo-steem PROMOTIONAL LOAN PITCH
Sequel to the great opportunity offered by promo-steem team, especially with the great leadership of @starkerz and @stephenkendal, I love to be part of this great move. Nigeria need to be covered by Steemit. But before I bring details of my strategy, let me give an introduction of myself.
My name is Asian George Udoh from southern Nigeria. I'm a chemist from university of Uyo, Nigeria. I joined Steemit on 3rd July 2017 and having seen the potential of this platform, I have not only become committed, but also have the passion to raising a committed team here in Nigeria.
My Strategy
My strategy is to reach out to young guys here, especially students and corps members. I have a concrete plan to visit different colleges and introduce Steemit to them. Our beautiful banner is ready and I have started going out already. The two places I and my team visited, where we created awareness on Steemit are covered here:

Apart from the awareness, I gave a comprehensive lecture on Steemit to corps members and even registered some of the guys, though the pictures of registration was not taken because I got too busy. The people registered will be mentioned in future when their Steemit accounts are approved.
Future Additions.
I have already made enquiries on the production of 20 Steemit t-shirts, fliers and Steemit business cards. The break down is as follows:
- 20 t-shirts estimated at 2500 naira each(total=50,000 naira)
- 500 copies of fliers at 200 naira
- 500 copies of business cards at 7500 naira.
- Transportation fees to visit schools, estimated at 200, 000( to cover about 36 universities in the 36 States of Nigeria).
Overall total estimate is 259,500 naira.
I strongly believe that with your support, we can cover every part of Nigeria between now and December, 2017. Ready to work with me are @leghiano and @collinsu.
Thanks for your support.
You've hit the mark.
You've made my day.
I too am thinking of using this idea from promo-steem. They have come up with a good idea of spreading the word of Steemit. I already have brought a few friends here...hipw others will too.
It's worthy ideal. Steemit is a beautiful platform that can accommodate everyone.
Great Pitch.
Can I just clarify that you are looking to borrow.
20 t-shirts estimated at total 50,000 naira = $140USD.
500 copies of fliers at 2000 naira = $6USD.
500 copies of business cards at 7500 naira = $20USD.
Transportation fees to visit schools, estimated at 200, 000 = $550USD
Overall total estimate is 259,500 naira = $716USD

Yes, I understand. I believe with increased support in terms of upvotes, it's possible to make it. Besides, I didin't include hotel fees for the different locations we are visiting. Nigeria is a large country with 36 states. But I believe I can do it. Thanks for bringing it to my notice @stephenkendal.
Thanks @greatness96 & welcome to Steemit family
Thanks a lot
This is exactly what I needed.
This is next-level stuff.
You've made my day.

Great to see this initial pitch!! Much appreciate your work here! Will get back to you soon! Keep it up and STEEMON!
Thanks alot @starkerz
@greatness96, unfortunately we cannot accept this pitch as it is far far above our budget for providing a micro loan, however we suggest to scale back a bit. Looking at your major costs these are T-shirts and transportation costs. May we suggest resubmitting your pitch with a smaller scale event, with fewer T-shirts and fewer visits. (We like the idea of starting small and building from there).
Okay, thanks @starkerz. I actually thought towards that direction. I don't like borrowing. Maybe we should use my post to generate little money per time and fund the projecg bit by bit. Sorry I didn't see your reply on time. Thanks.
