Steem Creator Conference Day 2 - Morning Sessions
Day 2 - Morning Sessions
The second day started with a Yoga class by the fabulous @saramiller. I was really looking forward to that but ended up missing it because I was posting the Weekend Freewrite posts. They take a bit longer than the regular daily prompt.
I was in time for the first lecture of the day.
Steem Authorship-- Ken Melendez @kenmelendez
Ken came well prepared for this presentation and gave us a lot to think about in his talk. His theme was steem authorship and in case you don't know, he is a published author.
He shared that his background as a fitness professional taught him the discipline necessary to succeed on Steemit. Consistency is important. Ken is also a father and a crypto enthusiast. His fitness and crypto knowledge have made it into his books you can find on Amazon - maybe the next one will be about his experience as a father of two boys - soon to be three.
Here are some of the tools Ken shared with us:
Stackedit.io - a tool that allows you to write and format your posts offline.
BuzzSumo - allows you to search which content is popular
Quara - a good way to see what people are interested in - and get a question answered.
Make sure to follow Ken and watch for the video of his presentation @steemcafe
Hustlin’ & Grindin’ - Chris Avalos @reseller
Chris was great!! And Chris was tired. He had driven that morning from LA - morning meaning starting the drive at 2 AM. to make matters worse for him, he wasn't able to sleep at all during the night.
Tired or not - Chris was rocking the house. He was funny and he was himself.
Being authentic was a big theme during the whole conference and Chris was a great example of that.
He has found Steem Success with his Show Steemit Minute, Your Daily Steem News Show! I made it to Steemian of the day in this episode! Thank you so much!!!
Here is one highlight of his talk. When Chris first started on Steemit, he tried all different kind of posts. He compared it to throwing spaghetti against the wall and see what sticks.
"I could open an Italian Restaurant with all that spaghetti," he said.
The One Minute Show stuck - but he hinted on having big plans for the future. You just have to follow him to see what he is up to @reseller
Steem Next Level - Joe Parys @joeparys
Talk about a person committed to Steem and to the conference. He pretty much went right from the emergency room to the airport to come to Vegas. This earned him the reward of most committed Steemian coming to the conference with hospital equipment still attached.
Joe shared about his financial struggle to make ends meet as a high school teacher and coach even though he worked long hours. Then he found online teaching and Steem.
His personal strategy is to invest heavily in Steem and in every one of his posts.
Some key points of his talk:
Become most successful on Steemit
Lifestyle design - earn crypto in your sleep
How to invest in crypto without being a tech guru
Joe offered all conference attendees his Steemit Udemy course for free!
Another great benefit of attending the conference!! Thank you, Joe!!
You can take it too - right now, it is on sale for $ 10.99 but only for a few more hours. Link to the course

@mariannewest! Excellent post you created here. Glad I could be part of your story. Hope things are going well for you after returning from the conference.
Thank you so much on all counts. 😄
Back to life as we know it. But it is fun to read everyone's post and relive the event
Great recap @marriannewest, it's been a lot of fun reliving the conference through all the #steemcreators posts. Thank you for posting the link to @joeparys' course, I just signed up. Cheers!
It is fun, isn't it!! I signed up last night and will start looking at it tonight. We can do what he did!! (besides putting 10,000 of our own money in lol)
Yes it is! Yeah, I've been trying to earn my steem but feeling pretty silly for not buying a chunk when it was down to $1.50...
For me, buying any was and is not an option. I am grateful that we can earn some...
I hear you. We're lucky to be earning it at an early stage too, before the price goes "to the moon".
Hey thanks for sharing, I really really had a great time at the conference. Meeting Steemians is so much fun! Have a great night!
Yes!! meeting Steemians is a lot of fun and I am sure we all can find ways to support each other!!
Thanks for the great commentary and for exposing us to these authors... Will check some of them out for sure and congrats on getting the Steemian of the day award from @reseller
Thank you!! That was such a cool surprise!! Hope that you find something useful among the posts of the speakers.
Definitely - great to get other peoples perspective, especially people who are on the platform a long time..
Yes, connecting with other Steemians in person takes it to another level...
Ya, I'd imagine so, I am going to try and make in to one of the Irish Steemit meetups soon, to try and meet some of the local people on the platform.. Thanks for the advise
Let me know how you liked it if you go to one :)
Will do 👍
