  1. Ask a friend. Tell a friend who already on Steem ecosystem about the program and ask them to sponsor you. Both you and your friend gets one SBI share for each STEEM sent for sponsorship!
  2. Winning SBI contests. The are lots of contests that gives away SBI shares as rewards. You can find most of them on @steembasicincome blog on Steem.

Yes someone can sponsor you. It can be your friend/relatives. You can ask them to sponsor you and the great thing is both of you will get a share. The other people that can sponsor you are the steemians here in steemit that runs a contest with sbi prize. Just search for those kind of contest. You can exert your efforts to win that share or sometimes you just need to test your luck because most of the sbi contest uses random generator to pick the winner.

To easily find the lists of sbi contests. You can follow @steembasicincome, they are finding a lot of contest that gives sbi shares then they compile it in a single post. So that it will be easy for everyone to see and join these kind of contests.

Great job on mentioning the best/ easiest way to get sbi shares. It will also be great to include other ways, so that steemians can have variety of choices to get their sbi shares. In this way, they can choose what is convenient or the best way for them.

Rating 6 - A clear and well written response. Accurate info.

YES! (Warning, rehashes my response in Category 1)

  1. Ask a friend (and promise an IOU) to sponsor you. Not only do you get the share, your friend does as well! Not only that, but it circumvents the low STEEM option and gets you accepted into the SBI membership. Also this increases the unit amount (or enrolls them into SBI) your friend has; it's at least more than where you were before.
  2. Ask a person to pay you in SBI Shares instead of STEEM, SBD or delegation in SP. After all, SBI Shares are one form of payment while a guarantee of a basic income (it's in the name). Always try this out whenever you can!
  3. Join in on this comment-spree contest and see if you can strike gold while it lasts! Seriously, the rules and expectations are above. Don't hind yourself, join-in on the fun and see if you can strike good responses, even better than mines!
  4. Be lucky and have someone sponsor you. Yes, this is pure luck. Yes, someone must really like you. Yes, you are valued as a human being in the medium of the economy. Yes, it might be awkward and you are right to feel that way.
  5. Win a contest or a contest category that sponsors SBI Shares as one of their payment options. Again, I suggest checking out the Monday (lest this changed) Weekly Contest catalogue ran by the very @steembasicincome people. That's the main source to find out which and what contests are running and handing out SBI Shares!

Rating 4 - detailed, but too long and wordy. Point 4 is un-needed as referencing a temporary contest in a permanent post is not a good idea.

Rated 5.

Point 4 and 5 not needed. Could have briefly presented point 1, 2 and 3.

Yes, you can request someone to sponsor you. Or you can look for contests that offer SBI shares as the prize. There are many out there and are using the #steembasicincome tag most of the time so you can easily find them. When you win, that assures you of at least one share.

Rated 5. Doesn't answers the question still. Needed to provide a lead on how to get on the contests.

Yes! Try entering one of the many contests offering shares of SBI as the prizes. You can find a selection of these shared regularly in a post on the @steembasicincome blog, or you can just check the #steembasicincome tag, where you are likely to find many opportunities to win some SBI shares!

Rating 5 - Very good coverage of contests, (although all answers in this category could include mention of the discord channel) but doesn't mention having a friend or contact sponsor you.

Rated 6. Provides tips to get sponsored but is too direct!

Rating 5

Contests are great way to earn free units but don't forget your friends!

5 clarity point

Contests are important to SBI community but being directly sponsored without contest really should be mentioned.

Yes, anyone can sponsor you. Keep an active blog and provide valuable content to your followers and other in the community, and someone may choose to sponsor you.

Alternatively, the @steembasicincome team makes a list of giveaways in which you could win SBI units. You can find these on our blog twice a week. You could also search for more contests in the #steembasicincome tag.

Some of these contests may be a great way to gain exposure for your blog within the community; requiring photography, writing and other creative mediums to enter. Just remember to play fair, only using your own creative content when taking part.
