RE: If you're a Whale, ignore this post... this isn't for you.
@jayjustmay, I've been sending information to 2 people I introduced to Steem, in order to keep them motivated. I've encouraged one to practice writing new blogs in order to sharpen his critical thinking skills.
I've also suggested they use the #craigrant tag.
hey.. awesome!
I've actually done the same thing, including suggesting the craigrant tag.
I think that it's important people look at steemit for what it is and not what it seems to be... it seems to be a free meal ticket, but it's not. It is however a growing community which will inevitably become something important in the social media arena which means those who get in now stand to gain great rewards for their efforts down the line, I'm sure of it.
Great post! It is interesting how success flows. I feel like being successful on here can be a roller coaster ride and without the ability to really follow people you can't gain up a "subscriber" base right now. Plus even the "dolphins" only have $0.10 of voting power so you can get 100 votes and make $5 if you are lucky. Pretty brutal but hopefully in the future. About 6 months things will be different.
You hit it right on the head. I mean, there's obviously never any guarantee or anything but the better option tends to go with what's more probably and in this case I really think that just doing your thing, building your own reputation and finding your own voice so those who resonate with you will follow you... the rewards will follow in time.
