To inspire, i will like to mention some of the things in the pipeline in the coming days. The essence of this post is to inspire every steemian in a more general sense.
The mere fact that you are steemit today is evidence that everyone who forms part of the steemit ecosystem, played his or her role in promoting steemit growth. Every tiny action of yours whether curating, creating content, engaging in the comments, building an app etc plays its role in promoting steemit on the outside; so keep at it!
Even if your only current goal is to grow in your steemit journey, that is steemit-growth in the making. Never think, you aren't promoting steemit and you have to imitate others who are accomplish meetups. Steemit meetups are only one way of promoting steemit and there tons of ways!
First, your constant content rank in the search engines and may have brought someone on steemit. I eventually joined steemit by means of the search engines even though, i knew of steemit before that eventual blog that drew me in. On that day, joining steemit was targeted and organic, so the prior awareness i had to steemit did help but that post stamp it. The steemit post answered exactly what i was looking for, plus, it was timely and above all, i connected with the content author.
So if you decide to develop in your own steemit journey over time, no qualms as down the road, you will become more effective when you promote steemit. I went through the same road and it is very valid to say; "as you improve in your learning about steemit and beyond" etc, it improves you own conviction about the steem platform and expands your vision on the true & full extent of the potential of steem technology and this conviction rubs off on others, when you eventually promote steemit to them. This is the simple truth!
So use this post to draw some inspiration and never feel you aren't doing much; for you are!
Bottomline is, promoting steemit takes different forms, so no need to measure what others do because the simple truth is, there is no tool to measure these things!
What's In The Pipeline?
There are many things indeed. Curation is ongoing and in just a little above one week, and in this short time you will see according to this post, that i have done more than 1,000 upvotes. Most of my upvote come with an educational or inspiring comment and has all been manual. My method of curation, doesn't only involve content. In reality, i try to connect with authors, thus, i overlook flaws and decipher intentions.
I am out to empower for real and empowering you, takes more than a few SBDs. I am brother to you in reality!
Recently, two people asked me the same question in the DM. They came around after reading my posts and they asked me; "what is your favorite quote in life" and i told them, how my favorite quotes were all created by me and here is one quote, i like to share with you, in relation to steemit:
The best version of "YOU" is awesome and it is a gift to humanity.
It is that simple. Become the best version of yourself and that will serve essence to the brother next to you and humanity because you would have innovated something.
"People do sleepless nights to cure Cancer"; doesn't mean they have Cancer!
Anyway..........
These are prints for plain T-Shirts, now available for everyone:
You can decide to print front and back, like this below:
Or you can use the first whole print, just on the front of the shirt!
I will have to print a few shirts first, to be used in a large meetup of students in the University of Baguio Philippines this Friday. I may not be able to print out too many, so i will just make enough to give out to University staffs.
Plus, sending some shirts will be made available for use in the ISDEV Hackathon, on the weekend.
Shirt design is available to use for any who wants to print shirts and i am available to help newbies who have questions, thus, i expressed responsibility by having @surpassinggoogle on the design.
There are plans to make such shirts for different countries, available for re-use. I used the services of @deveerei for designs.
There is a fun part too! Well, just a fun experiment, that i will like to try over time and i will be posting educationally about these methods. For one, i will be arranging sporting events like One-Day Leagues on different sports like Football, Basketball, Volleyball etc as popular in the Philippines. I am still in discussions on how to make these things grand even on a small budget!
For this post however, i would also like to offer another set of printables! I will be doing the distribution of this with @pinaynomad and we'll try to give them out to just the right people, so we will walking around Manila to look for just the right people.
Basically, it is like a "redeemable steemit gift card". The card looks like a small airtime card, with instructions on how to redeem a gift amount. This gift, is something i will pay out to new users upon completion of my simple instructions:
FRONT
BACK
You can also print this out if you want and give them out if you leave in the Philippines and you can apply the idea as well, in your own nation of residence!
Normally, when new people sign up to steemit, they get a portion of $ gift in the form of steem power but for recipients of this gift cards who take action, i will tutor them on how to go about making a top-notch introductory post, then i will send them my own gift.
I will pause for now!
Your Boy Terry
