Over the weekend, I hit two significant milestones in my Steemit journey with one being more important to me than the other. For about six months now, I have tried to get my father to join and post on Steemit. I created an account for him (@sevinwilsonsdad) a few weeks back. He got his name thanks to @goldmatters after we shot a Menē unboxing video. This past weekend, we shot a video for his introductory post! It the best video I have ever seen! It is full of comedy, raunchiness, and wisdom. If you haven’t checked it out yet, you should do so now! My father has been a mentor to me and has given me most of the street smarts I have acquired in my life. View the video here.
On other social media platforms (Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook) I am a participant, albeit mostly a silent one, my follower count is not near what it is on Steemit. I cannot believe I have hit 2000 followers. I’m hoping that I have been able to make a positive impact on my followers lives. My total post count is over 6,700 and Twitter is the only social media outlet where I have posted more than I have done on Steemit. I joined Steemit in March of 2017 and have tried to be active here daily. Some days I am able to crank out multiple posts, while other days I am lucky to crank out one. The #SteemSilverGold has been an excellent place to meet stackers. Before Steemit, I knew a whole 5 people who invested in precious metals. Now, that list has ballooned to over 100 people that I can personally reach out to, if I have a question about the metals.
Growing up I was more shy than I am now. Nowadays, I will do just about anything to promote my brand or others! Over the last year I have made videos about:
- eating ghost peppers and Trinidad scorpion peppers, some of the hottest peppers in the world.
- unboxing of multiple Menē gifts
- vacations my family or I have been on.
- singing karaoke for my brother from another mother, @goldmatters.
Thank you to everyone that has followed me and a special thank you to those who engage with me regularly. @goldmatters wrote a lengthy post about me this past weekend and it was arguably the kindest thing I have ever received from someone. You can read the entire post here.I hope my girlfriend does not see this! This got me to thinking about doing a follower appreciation post weekly of those I have built up a special bond with over the last year. There are many people on here that I would love to meet in person and I hope I can do so eventually! Maybe we can have a #SteemSilverGoldFest meetup eventually! How sweet would that be!! I mean we are all over the world, but it would be incredible if we were able to pull it off!
Congrats on the big milestones man! @sevinwilsonsdad intro video was one of the greatest things I have ever seen lol. I gotta get me a Prince shirt!!
Yeah you do!! When prince passed away there were so many family members and friends that reached out to him asking him if he was okay when he heard the news!
Did you know that prince owned a lot of gold bars?
I was not aware of this until @sevinwilsonsdad told me!! Maybe that is why he likes Menē so much!!
he had a huge stash of gold bar worth a ton
Yo, let me get some of your followers... lol
