”you haven’t been working lately, how u keepin on? Ye seem comfortable.”
“Oh, steemit.”

My brother introduced me to steemit. I had and have been taking photos and blogging on other sites. I just got two of my friends on the site. I feel people are stubborn and don't get the potential for exposure and networking. I really like @dandelion approach.

Part of the problem for me is that people look at it and see an echo chamber. A lot of people into Steem and Steemit, talking about how great Steem and Steemit is. It adds to the sense that we're a community of people just trying to push the price up on something. I think it'll get better and easier when the community upvotes and supports more divergent interests on a range of topics as often as they do posts on Steem's price or Steemit's popularity.

Well, that's one of the reasons I am trying to get my friends who are professional writers/artists/musicians/filmmakers, etc., on here - that and it'll be good for them. None of them know the first thing about crypto. That said, a high SBD price is a massive incitement for people who expect to get paid in exchange for valuable content. I know a few people dropped off over summer because SBD was too low and they were making content they had put in a lot of effort into only to get $0.50 which at that time was only like 30 pence.

You are right, we need those people. They also need support by the people who are here. Upvoting content and the like. It can be extremely frustrating when you get little for your effort. It takes a special kind of person to be both hyped about Steemit and patient at the same time.

All I can say is that people are always scared of joining a new bus until it is about to get filled.
Give them time. They will probably come around.
Also having that kind of difficulty with my friends here.

What I miss on Steemit is an invitation option. Most Social Media grow virally by leveraging the networks of their users, Steemit doesn't bennefit from that. I guess your friends would readily create an account if it would be easy for you to share your content with them somehow. Never underestimate the power of email. So if any of the Steemit overlords are reading this...

Hey - that's a good idea. Mainly I've been telling people about it and posting on Facebook, but I think because they don't understand it and don't understand where the money comes from they are too suspicious. It's also tricky for a n00b to get money out - which is the thing that will draw people to the platform (before they make connections and get properly hooked on crypto!).

I'm on winter break from uni right now, and I've spent a good portion of my time getting friends and family on here. I've had only minimal trouble, because we're all college kiddos who need money for non-ramen-tier food and for our heating bills. I've found that (if you trust said individual) showing them your bittrex account (or coinbase, or whatever) and giving them an idea of the possibilities is a good way to go.

Honestly, my pals are the same! Many are in uni but a lot of them are also just skint in general and are super talented artists. Others are professional content creators (I hate that phrase but it's useful) and would expect a decent remuneration from their work. Steemit now should be a no-brainer.
I like the sound of your approach though. I've not been in a situation to sit someone down with a laptop, etc., and talk them through it. So far I have been posting on FB and also just talking to people and it's not working and there is real need for me to do it apart from it's good for my pals and it's good for Steemit.

I've gotten five mates into it, and luckily I'm near enough most of them to sit them down and show them the ropes/walk them through everything from account creation to swapping SBD to BTC. The only one I haven't been able to do that with lives in Australia, but we managed over Fb chat! I'f you like I can dig up the links to the "steem for dummies" guide I sent them all!

I know man, it is so fucking annoying people don't just jump onto this. I've seen poets (poets!) making hundreds of steem dollars a week (and that's underplaying it). I'm like, this has literally never happened before in history, omg.Anyway, I know you know this, but man it's annoying! Thanks for the video!
