RE: Have a Say in the Steem Film!
One suggestion is that while we try really hard to 'sell' how awesome Steemit is, we don't paint an unrealistic picture. If the video attracts tons of people to the site, but most of them get disappointed after spending a week on the site and leave - then it defeats the purpose.
Obviously making money is a selling point, but we should not make it the selling point.
Users should not come to the site expecting to 'get rich quick'.
I think two big points to focus on are the community of talented individuals that you get to interact with, and being able to become part of something great/groundbreaking before it becomes mainstream.
I heard some good advice, a little too late for me, but handy for noobs.
Curate and comment until you've built up a decent following before you start posting oc.
I think too many people are disillusioned when they pour they heart and soul into a piece, only to have it attract a couple of upvotes.
That is a very good point.
