Hello Steemit!

in firstpost •  7 years ago  (edited)

Recently (few months back), I started learning more and more about crypto currencies. I read a lot, watched YouTube videos and was hooked. Soon after I made my first purchases of Ethereum and Bitcoin. Few days later their price doubled against USD. I think was the final push for me to start heavily exploring the world of crypto.

It feels like it's been forever since I heard about steemit and I'm just now starting try it out. Since I do write blog posts and been featured as a guest author for several other blogs I though why not publish some of my content. I got inspired by @jerrybanfield (https://steemit.com/@jerrybanfield).

Hi, this is me:

I'm an entrepreneur, digital marketer and super excited to try out new things and be the early adopter. I currently work on my own digital marketing agency. Most of the times I help small businesses get more business with the use of online channels such as social media, Google Adwords, SEO.

I do Instagram (instagram.com/gettinggrowth), I blog (https://gettinggrowth.com) and I almost started a YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/dashboard?o=U) <- when you're reading this few months from now hopefully I've posted several videos by that time.

I also play the guitar and sing in a band called Close to Infinity. We actually released a new summer song. Would love to hear your thought on it:

We're into alternative/pop/rock music, but also like to experiment around with different styles.

I guess, I'm this post together to get a better understanding of the platform. So whoever stumbles upon this post, I'd love to hear from you why you started "Steeming" (is that right?).

I'll keep my first post short and see what happens! :)

Welcome to Steem @johanneskanter I have sent you a tip

Thank you! Glad to be here ;)

Hello and welcome!

Hi! Thanks! How are you?

I am well!

Good to hear! :)

The cryptocurrency stuff is so interested. I joined Steemit last week, before I knew a thing about any of it, and am finding it a steep but fascinating learning curve. And.. it's already generating income for me (you, too, apparently!) This is amazing news for a struggling artist (I'm a writer and a singer-songwriter, in case you have any interest in checking out my videos I have up here).

Welcome to the platform. You will seriously love it.

Xx, Kay

It's interesting absolutely! Great to hear that you've already maybe some income for yourself. I bought a few Steem few weeks ago, but just now started this account. Let's see where it takes me.

I checked your content as well. Great stuff. As a musician myself I really enjoyed it (especially sound of silence cover). If you have a moment, would love to hear your thoughts on my song as well. I write music as a hobby.

Thanks again! :) Very nice to meet you.

You know, it's not really my style normally, but I am enjoying it. Cool vibe. I hope you do well. I'm trying to connect with other serious writers and artists on here as well to build a stronger cultural presence, so it's cool to have someone like you to connect with.

Awesome! :)

Ideally I would like to dedicate more time on music and get some recognition from larger audience. Right now it has just been so busy with work and everything. Great to be connected with you too. If you release new music I'd be happy to give feedback. ;)

Thank you! I'd love to hear more from you in the future--keep in touch. I do have some of my tracks online through my website--free downloads as well. xx

Welcome to the community ! I hope you will enjoy being here just like I do. Stay active, post quality content and you will succeed :)
@trendo

Thank you! Really cool to meet new people here. Seems like a fun community. :)

I'm actually going to follow. Way to be a go getter as I would have missed out on that otherwise--the extra effort in relationship really helps you out here.
