"Never give up on your goals... the beginning is always the hardest and those who work hard will be greatly rewarded ~ Charles Fuchs.
Yoooo Steemians, It's been a few days since my last post... you guys know how I do it, I'm busy with that Hustle and Grind. 😎🤑
One of the hardest things to do on Social Media is to build a huge following... there are so many people who buys course and spends tons of time trying to figure this out but never do. 🙇🏼
So what is the "Secret" in building a huge following? It common sense and the answer is right in our faces. 😬
You see, building a Social Media following is one of the easiest things to do... so here are my simple steps that I everyday. 👨🏼💻
1. Transparency - You don't have to show people "Everything" but if a person displays his or her life on Social Media with lots of transparency... more and more people will think you are more of a genuine person and will want to follow your journey in life.
2. Consistency- This is also important, people will want to see if you are committed to something. By posting almost everyday, you will get their attention on a daily bases. Don't start posting tons of times... people will get tired of you and will think you are just desperate for attention.
3. No Negativity - You know people are drawn to drama, disputes, and conflict. This may work to get people's attention in the short term but many will then realize that the consistent bad vibes from you affects them and will eventually don't wan't to deal with you anymore "unfollow" lol.
These are just simple steps guys in building a huge following on Social Media like a boss. 😎
Have an awesome Sunday Steemians! 💞
P.S. I finally finished my Steemit Shirt Website but I just heard recently that Steemit might come out with a new logo design, if that is the case I will hold on.
Do you guys know if this is true or not? 🤷🏼♂️
wich social media? i left all others, just on steemit now lol

Being genuine is so important. That is why I always recommend real name accounts over personas and I tell folks to just be themselves. This way their tribe will find them.

Charles @stackin I never thought that anyone would even care to Follow me on STEEMIT and now I am close to 1000 Followers. Not Bad for an OLD Guy that just posts on occasion. The one important thing that I do attempt to do is Comment everyday on other peoples postings. Showing UP everyday on STEEMIT is what gets you to Grow.

Great advice as ever dude.
Giving something of yourself is important to success however some of us can't give up our real names for many reasons. I give everything I can without giving away my identity due to my current employment. Steemit is my first outing into social media so it's still new to me.

I think the consistency is the hardest part. With YouTube it is a ton of work to produce solid content, edit, upload, tag, make descriptions....etc. Then when the money to support yourself could be two years down the line on that it makes it tough for someone to put in the grind when bills are piling up.
Often the best people I see really make it there were people who were subsidized to some respect either by a spouse or they were a kid in high school living with their parents.
It's almost got to be like a 2 year + grind where the majority of your time is focused on social media.
That is the situation I really want to focus on because these huge followings are going to become more and more important as people's attention continues to gravitate away from traditional media and toward independent content creators online.
STEEM is going to be a very important element in that equation!

To put it the other way, be yourself. Don't copy other people's posts. My latest strategy is to read other people's posts, upvote and leave a positive comment. By so doing I'm sowing a seed with the expectation of reaping a harvest one day.

@stackin I think you left off one important point and it's something that you yourself do very well but I think forgot to mention. That's connecting with your audience, responding to comments, etc.
I remember a few months back when you were new on this platform and really building a buzz for yourself you were creating a ton of content and had a lot of people commenting on your stuff and I notice you still even with that high volume manage to upvote peoples comments, respond to comments, etc. Essentially you have a connection with your viewers/readers and I think that goes a long way.
I credit that to a lot of my growth on youtube in my early days. I would literally respond to EVERY comment whether it warranted a response or not and I think people appreciated that. I still try to do it but obviously at like 67k its harder to respond to every comment as opposed to when I had 5k or 10k.

Regardless of one getting all the attention he or she may need or want, staying real is one thing in life that none of us should every compromise on. I would rather stay unknown for a longer period of time, as compared to people knowing the existence of 'me' that doesn't really exist at all!
Be real.. stay honest. Everything else will just fall into place itself!

I am trying to build a following on steemit.. it doesn't seem like I have that many active followers tho. Instagram and facebook was so much easier to build!! So if anyone reading my comment check out my stuff!! I am a random poster but it is always positive stuff....

I agree with you. Building followers on social media is really hard these days but at the same time it's also easy if someone is consistent and keep adding value to others life. It's actually a secret which rarely people understand.
The biggest hurdle which everyone has to face (or will have to face) is when they post an article or make a video on youtube then they expect tons of views. They want people go and read article / watch the video but in initial stage it doesn't happen so eventually newbies lose their little faith and give up. That is the single most reason why so many new blog sites start everyday and go offline just after a few months or an year or so...
You mentioned eye opening fact...
So you said exactly right and if someone follows your advise and have:
Transparency
Consistency
No Negativity
then he/she can really move the mountain.
Thanks for sharing, I love it.

You are absolutely right boss. I've been learning a lot from great leaders within Steemit. The most important points I can see are:
Wait I think I'm quoting you :S. Well I guess it's not wrong if I quote the truth. I could also add: thinking out of the box. I feel amazed while watching members joining in and getting massive followers in just a few months. You are right while giving away so much free lessons. I hope every member may follow you closely ("stackin you") so they could get the best of your teachings. I really appreciate each and every one of your posts. STEEM ON.

HI. Albertus de Saad here. I have a pet rabbit that keeps telling me all his depressing life stories. Sometimes i just want to strangle him. But then i realise that if i do, I'll probably get a call from the SPCA, or worse, he might leave a blood stain on my carpet. It's a really nice carpet and I don't want to ruin it with filthy rabbit blood. This onetime I almost spilled some red wine on my carpet, but luckily i have lightning reflexes and i was able to catch it all with my mouth. My rabbit still has the video somewhere on his smartphone. So you know it's legit. Anyway, i just thought I'd share this story with you. I think it relates to your post. Enjoy and peace out homies.
