RE: Steem: How to build a network and retain users

in #steem6 years ago (edited)

It's a great thing you're doing, Asher, and has inspired me. These last couple of weeks, i've been delegating to promising newcomers. Basically as an act of rebellion against the unfair rules that came with HF20 - which gave newcomers barely a fair chance to survive. I realize that without an instream of newcomers, this place will be doomed.
And it is in fact that category of users that is often forgotten.

Sometimes It turns out great, and people are really making the most of that delegation that helps them to not run out of RC that often. Sometimes, it doesn't, and they disappear anyway. It's a risk, but one I'm fully prepared to take if I can get people like @steemaddiction and @kayda-ventures to stay and give them a chance to succeed.

I do try to follow up on them at least once a week - just to see how they're doing, leaving a motivational comment, or give them some advice. I recently started to redirect them to Steem Terminal, although I always tell them I'm available to answer any questions they may have.

It's good to see people like @krazzytrukker, @nurseanne84 and others have found their way here.

Everyone knows, I did the same for @cicisja once, and we all know how that turned out :0)

Totally. Who cares about someone who cant even cast a cent vote on your post? I do, and you do, and a lot of people in 'our' community do.

It is a very small risk, that's the cool thing about delegation. Sure you've missed out a little yourself, but for the chance to help someone settle in, totally worth it.

Can't get rid of this lady now! :D
