As you can surely tell from my last two posts, I am finally on board with the direction of Steemit Inc. Honestly, now that the rewards curve is being addressed, I think equality in the voting power is going to be huge for Steemit! Until now, I didn't even want to consider moving forward with marketing.
Once we finally have that glaring problem fixed, hopefully with the next hard fork, I am ready to move forward with marketing.
I think there are many steps that need to be taken for marketing. This is just an idea for one crowdsourced movement.
Steemit Idea Proposal Structure Q:
- What is the problem?
- What is the solution?
- How will you prove your project was a success?
My Idea for Growth A:
- Not enough new users or big names on Steemit
- Get new users especially by getting a big name onboard that can bring their own followers
- We have the big name and 1 million new Steemit users.
SWARM to recruit a celebrity with a big following that will match synergistically with the steemit ecosystem. It will be a good thing for everyone
Youtube and Twitter have already upset a lot of their big content providers recently. Once one of them gets a taste of Steemit love, it will explode!
Details
My suggestion - Joe Rogan
Why?
- 3 million twitter followers
- 1.3 million youtube followers
- excellent content creator
- You can see he doesn't trust the gubment as much as the average Steemit user:
This country has a mental health problem disguised as a gun problem and a tyranny problem disguised as a security problem.
How
This would be a swarm tactic. Everyone involved would need to act by:
- commenting on Joe Rogans twitter, youtube, facebook, etc.
- Write posts about Joe Rogan and/or MMA/Ultimate fighting and/or comedy and/or psychedelics.
- Formal Invitation
I think this is a great idea and there are other steemians who have had similar ideas. If anyone starts a steemit.chat for this purpose I'd be happy to participate. Thanks for posting this idea!
Thanks @andrarchy we were just talking about it on steemspeak but yeah a steemit.chat channel is a great idea to start hashing this out. I hope it gets enough interest to move forward with a swarm!
steemit.chat is not secure
I couldn't get one set up anyway. Need an admin to do it now I guess.
I enjoy Joe Rogan a lot. He's got a healthy balance between both libertarian and authoritarian positions.
Agreed. [:
I love his casual, conversational, honest style. I think if he talked about Steemit for 30 seconds, 100,000 people would sign up immediately.
