RE: Steemprentice: Steemit Mentoring Group - Launch Announcement

in #steemprentice8 years ago

This is awesome and much needed in my opinion. Several people have given up on Steemit because they didn't get rich. Well, they fail to see the importance of building a community of like-minded people.
I honestly wish I could help as a mentor but I was just accepted as a Municipal Liaison for NaNoWriMo and it will be hard enough to volunteer there, and keep up with my own growing tribe here.
I hope you have a great response.
Maybe you might consider something like an "Adopt a Newbie" where you match a new member to a seasoned one. Just an idea :)
Oh...and I found you through steemwhales. with a name like sykochica, I had to follow you! LOL

Thank you!
I definitely love the adopt a newbie idea, I expect to see it happening in some form as people come in. I've tried to do that myself with a couple of people so far and it's very gratifying (and exhausting sometimes, in a good way.)

A big part of this, especially here at the beginning is outreach. Since we can't expect the new people or frustrated users to find this post or chat channel some focus is searching the chat rooms for 'frustrated' posts or going through the intro posts or something to find brand new people to at least let them know this is available for them.

I'm on steemwhales! Woots! I'm so tiny on here, idk how you found me on there! Lol
But thank you! That's been my gamer tag for a long time. :D
