Dear Minnow (part 44): ON STEEMIT, CONTENT IS KING WHILE COMMUNITY IS QUEEN!

in dearminnow •  7 years ago  (edited)

Dear Minnows,

Today I'm going to be a little playful but still relay my messages. There's a serious pun (pawn) right in this article. From the number 44 to the title to my first few words. I'm going to use this to pun-ish some people who dump articles on Steemit like its a waste bin.

Alot of time you hear it over and over that CONTENT IS KING. Some newbies just read that literally. Fine you did your research and produced amazing articles. WOW! We are all happy for you... init?!

NOPE! We aren't totally happy. Our happiness based on your logistics is still loading...probably around 49%. You know why? You haven't connected with us. SO WHY HAVEN'T YOU?

COME FOR THE MONEY, STAY FOR THE COMMUNITY

You see the mistake that many people make is to come for the money alone...until you start staying for the community, you ain't done yet. You are missing out on the sweet part.

Infact if you come for the money alone, you will get tired of chasing money I swear. You know money is a fast runner. It will deal with you the way Usain Bolt used to deal with his fellow competitors in the race. You will sweat and sweat...but no glucose for you. Why not chase something else that already knows how to catch money?

COMMUNITY CIRCLES MONEY!

You see those circles that communities form; any money that enters that center never leaves again...it only circulates. They say 2 heads are better than one. What of 3, 5, 10, 100, 1000? That's when you begin to see the magic of geometrical progressions. You begin to grow like say them dey jazz you!

WHEN YOU GET TO ANY KINGDOM,

  • First pay homage to the king and immediately follow that up by paying homage to the queen too. Dear Minnow, know ye that women have immense powers oh. If you don't pay homage you may have your head on a platter like that of John The Baptist. In this case, you will have your wallet empty like the plates of those 'Almajiris' begging for alms in the streets.

SO if the community is the queen, you must find a way to pamper the women. Make them laugh. Tickle them. Befriend them. If you love somebody walk up to her... Mmmmh. mmmmh. Clears throat.

SO HOW DO YOU CONQUER THE QUEEN OF STEEMIT?

The ideas shared on are really helpful @nairadaddy the part I took most dearly is coming for the money and staying in the community and also connecting with others because two heads are better than one. Was really funny when you said chasing only the money you will sweat saaa like Usain bolt does to his fellow competitors. Lol

Lol, Dr George, this post indeed is playful. I laughed throughout. Thanks for the advice. You're indeed a mentor.

Thanks dear @alisonudeme. Keep steeming!

Doc, I enjoyed every piece of it and I have leant a lot. I believe in connections than quick results! I send people message with my sbd just to find ways to connect. Thanks for sharing

Great advice bro! I honestly wish I woulda read this about 2 months ago.. You are right! I feel like I have better than average content and I have always commented a bunch on other peoples posts, but never really got into friending people on discords. Now I see a lot of people I started with way ahead of me in SP and in profile score. You definitely have a gift for this so I am taking more of your awesome advice and becoming more active in discords from now on! Hopefully I'll see that 60 profile score before I leave for costa rica in a few months :)
Take care my friend!

Respect to the king... Am new here and I need a mentor.. I trust you won't mind. I just DM you on discard and am following you right now.... The cool @nairadaddy

Waoh, this is my first time of reading your article and i must say; i enjoyed every line...i love the way you play with words...seriously coming for only the money is tiring, it's better to chase what brings the money instead of chasing the money itself. if you love somebody walk up to her and tell her you.... no need completing it since you didn't complete it. I love this write-up and glad i stumbled on it this morning.

Awesome well said! Content is KING! Community is QUEEN! Love this! And this has been the topic of discussion among Team Malaysia recently too. And Come for the Money but Stay for the Community! Totally AGREED! And never chase the money! Engagement is very very very important. As important as good quality content. We need to go out and make friends. This is a social platform after all.

I am so new that i do everything wrong. Thanks a million, this is helpful.

thanks for this enlightenment. i guess i have a lot of work to do as regards being active in communities. i am heading straight down to one....

Thanks so much @nairadaddy
The work you put into this community is limitless
