And So It Begins! Presenting The First Entry To The Steem Media Contest
The first entry is in for The Steem Media Contest which seeks to reward those who help in promulgating and spreading the word in order to give Steemit the media attention we all know it deserves.
@steempower was the first steemian to officially lodge the first entry in the competition, but let’s do a quick reminder first:
The Steem Media Contest
The rules of the game are simple: The winners are those who get Steemit the most relevant media exposure, whether in an article, a guest blog or by getting Ned and Dan on a popular podcast or even television.
The prize
From June 21st until July 14th, you can submit your entry in the comments below for a chance to win a nice share of steem!
The winner, 2nd and 3rd place, all get rewarded in a pool of $1500 SP.
Now, let’s give credit where credit is due
Thanks to @steempower’s efforts, Brave New Coin latest newsletter is titled "Full STEEM Ahead and the Golden Bankchain" featuring steem in their brand new publication.
Congratulations to @steempower! Best of luck and may the best steemian win!
Here’s What You Can Do To Win:
If you have friends or acquaintances who work in a fairly prominent media outlet, run a reasonably well-known blog or have a great podcast with a decent audience…
Consider supporting Steemit by spreading the word and pitching the idea of a steemit-themed article to them.
It’s a perfect win-win for all parties involved, after all if steem takes off as we all hope, they can write about it again later on, only this time as a notable reminder of how they covered steem while it was still in the early stages.
And if it doesn’t, well it would be just another article like many others.
Kobe shot 50 times in his last game, which only happened four times in NBA history, but all that people will remember is the legendary 60 points that he scored.
Moral of the story, they have a lot to win and nothing to lose by covering steemit.
And lest we forget, journalists, reporters, bloggers, podcasters… They all love exclusives. The readers? They all love newsletters that introduce them to game-changing trends before everybody else.
So you as you can see, there is tremendous value for everyone!
Plus, your friend will always remember you as the one who introduced them to this revolutionary platform, which is another small incentive in addition to the prize of course.
“The tipping point is that magic moment when an idea, trend, or social behavior crosses a threshold, tips, and spreads like wildfire.”
― Malcolm Gladwell, The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference.
The Steemit Media Contest isn’t just an opportunity to win prizes or gain recognition but an opportunity to contribute to the expansion of a game changing media platform.
@steempower is on, who’s next? You could be a winner!
Ladies and gentlemen, let’s make some noise!
