Figured I'd introduce myself!

in #introduceyourself7 years ago (edited)

My name is Mike. I'm just your average guy. Happily married with 3 kids for the last 12 years. I wear a variety of hats in my work life. 1st and foremost, I'm an independent Insurance Agent. This means I write car insurance for a variety of companies and that is my primary source of income. I'm also a web designer in my spare time. I own several different websites and use them to bring in various streams of income. I'm a bit of a scifi geek. I love most things nerdy and geeky. Spend most of my spare time hanging out with my wife and kids.

Mike your welcome to this great community where all things are possible with those who put more effort. Keep moving.

Hi @mikeoftulsa! Welcome to (what I believe will become) the best social network on the internet! I know it seems like a like a lot to learn at the start, there are a couple of things you can do without much effort to start getting your followership up quickly.

First, make sure to follow @bot-helper so you have a better chance at getting some exposure on your content. You can check out what I mean by taking a look at this link. Also consider following @minnowsunite and @minnowsupport

Next, take a look around the Steemit community and check out the chat rooms. You want to start getting known, so take a little time to chat with others and promote your introduction link (in the #postpromotion chatroom)

Finally, check out some of the tags and topics on the right side of the dashboard. Find a topic you are interested/knowledgeable in and start commenting. The more great comments you make, the better chance you have for people to start following you! Feel free to follow me as well (@randomness) so we can go on this journey together!

Good luck getting started and just remember to take it a day at a time. Rome wasn’t built in a day!

Thanks. I'm still getting the hang of everything.

welcome to the community.

I'm fond of scifi myself. Have you seen the Expanse?

I started watching it but didn't really get into it. I might give it another shot because I had too many diff shows I was watching at the time.
