I can tell that you are maybe thinking of ways on how to bring the steemit platform or crypto idea to the public which is good. We are here to bring in more people until mass adoption hopefully. For me, the salary part may not work but instead of salary why not give the employees an incentive in the form of steem? Just my thought.

A better use case I can think of would work for teachers. I saw this on Youtube actually. One teacher uploads his lessons online then his students watch to learn. Teacher gets views and perhaps earn in the long run. I think that can work with steemit too.
