To start off with the the 19 hours the thread was open was an interesting one, we made a few mistakes in process. Such as doing @all command and getting warned for posting too often, we also got a few other small warnings but we worked it out with one of the mods and i can now talk again in the chat.
Our journey on Steemit.com:
To start off we read the white paper an decided this community is pretty cool an might be in need of some guidance on internet safety an seen a potential client base who we can build trust with. So we made our first post which didn't get much traction at all. We explained our service an what we offered then announced our back to school sale.
Our first post can be found here:

One hour later:
We made a post for our intro it got a decent amount of votes an we seen $10. We were ecstatic that people took an interest in our story as a company an what we are about. We believe in free speech in all its forms verbal and or digital speech should not be hindered an should be considered a universal human right. We are also strong believers in community an organizing charity events which we will be bring to the steemit community.

Up up and away:
But to continue this magical adventure of steem we happened to get a pretty powerful steem power holder to upvote us. An we came back to $200+ on the post an over 45 upvotes. It seemed something started, did our companies message reach the users or did we get lucky we started posting on the steemit.chat site an a few hours later over BAM $400 then $600.
Made a few mistakes
Here comes the part where we thought it would be a good idea to do that @all command which was the worse idea even story explained at the start of the post. So time go gone we keep it going twitter, reddit, bitcointalk then BAM $800. Now those of you paying attention notice the tittle says 600 well it ended around 800 an it settled at the value of just over $600 which was split into steem power which we will be keeping in power an steem dollars. Which we turned to steem an cashed out.
@all is never your friend, especially in Chat!
Yeah I learned that real quick with the mute we got, but we were unmuted after a chat with the mod.
