Guilty Pleasure - Getting referrals without being annoying.

in #mining7 years ago (edited)

Hello,

Let me just start by being honest

Sometimes I find opportunities on the internet that seem great (too good to be true?). And I want to try them out. You know which ones I'm talking about...the ones that tell you to evangelize to your family and friends???

Yes, yes, I know I shouldn't try them, and all the reasons why, but sometimes I DO want to give it a try. So how do I minimize the social damage?

The main thing is this

I like my friends, and I love my family - and I would really like to keep them in my life.

...I don't want them to hide every time they see me!!!!

Okay, so let's get specific

Here are the plain facts:
  • I found another referral thing.
  • It's called CryptoTab. I've been interested in crypto-currency mining, but so far I've found it way too complicated. This uses my internet browser - which honestly sounds really cool.
  • The thing is that you build your mining pool by getting....you guessed it...referrals.

Here is a little more info:

  • I use "Ublock" and "AdBlock" as protection. And made sure they were up and running before downloading CryptoTab from the Chrome Extensions library.
  • It's a Google Chrome Extension.

Now for the shameless self-promotion

If you use my referral link --->> https://getcryptotab.com/233507 <<---- you can join my mining pool!

Whew! Done.

One more thing

I don't want you to lose your friends or family too. I see that a couple people have posted their CryptoTab referral links on Steemit already - and if it's working for you, don't change it on my account. But for people like me who don't have referrals, perhaps we could start a referral tree.

Here's how:

  • If you're interested, resteem this post as is
  • Copy the message (edit if you like) and update it with your own link
  • The next interested person resteems the original post, creates a new message with their link - and so on and so forth.

It works kind of like a chain letter? (Okay, bad example - but you get the point)

Not sure if this violates any of steemit's rules, so open to other suggestions.

Parting thoughts

I didn't post this to debate whether referral programs are good or bad. I just want to own up to my guilty pleasure - and looking for the least annoying way to scratch the itch. Can I get keep a friend???

Also, this is my first steemit post. So please upvote if you liked it!!!

Have a great day :)
