I was thinking a mentor type program. Small fee for 1 on 1 time with a knowledged user who can help a person make better sense. Someone they can contact directly with that person. I know steemit.chat is there but some of the questions are never answered. Walk through of the interior if you will and an explaination of payouts and payments. Just an idea

I took on a writing mentee during the first week I was on Steemit. He's doing great, and I think encouragement goes a long way.....
Would being a mentee turn me into a manatee, or is there no such classification yet?
Manatees are dolphins that haven't yet earned their flippers
You hear in life people are going to motivational professionals. This would help give motivation to the bigger guys ro ahare some knowledge without giving aways any secres of course but yes a more personable interaction is priceless.
this might be difficult for new users to pay for, but if steemit was to have a mentor programme that allocated new members a mentor who had been vetted to ensure they know the system well enough to help new members.
Mentors and mentees find each other organically actually after forming bonds. Forming bonds is a necessary step for further development.
My whole base to my concept would be an attempt to bring members to a more personal level. I think to thrive we need to embrace the social media concept and not go on the typical employer employee type relationship. You get paid for content but from more or less friends not whales or minnows. My name is Tony its nice ti meet you.
@stellabelle I agree but for users who have found the site on their own, feeling overwhelmed and posts aren't getting answers the option to join a mentoring program might be the difference between them staying or leaving.
You've missed part of the beauty of the economic system . . . . just get them to agree to send you all of the SBD from their writing for X weeks (max $Y). People are generally pretty honest when dealing with such small amounts -- and, if we implement smart contracts, they can actually auto-enforce deals of this type.
