RE: Introducing MINNOW MENTOR - A new FREE initiative to help minnows earn more

in #steemit7 years ago

Yes, a great post. So two slightly more in depth comments. Firstly, I'd drive the WHY at the beginning. Ask it as a question "would you like your camera to make you money whilst you sleep" or something like that. It will really drive curiosity. If there is anything I've learned from observing clickbait (and being a psychologist specialising in linguistics and social behavioural engineering) its that if a person mentally answers the question as "YES" internally, they are way more likely to click on it. Getting an upvote and curation always begins with the click.

Secondly, you threw me in the post with a technical aspect which you didn't explain. I've heard of whitebalance but I have no idea what it is or how to use/do/fix/work with it. So there's your next post maybe? Teach photo-dummies like me how to use a camera. Now THAT would get me following!!! You see how it works? You have so much in terms of skills that you can offer, so slowly drip it out to people, make them want it...make them care about your posts as you care about crafting them. Blogging is a great deal about information and learning. Humans love to learn. so help us. Show me where I'm going wrong as a completely amateur photographer/filmmaker and let me eat out of your hand as I upvote you, because you feel like my friend when you do!

You're clearly keen to grow. So lets grow!

Great advice once again! :D Thank you so much! Would really like to enter your mentoring programme! :)
Now I need to think how to make a post about white balance interesting :D
btw, can your camera shoot in Raw format?

I have absolutely no idea. And there's another topic for you. It's a canon EOS 550d if thats any help.

Awesome! I have the same camera! :D
