Prowritershub-wk4:Steemgrowth - Recruit a new user and help them write their introduction post

It is good to be part of this week4 of Prowritershub. I can say that this has helped so many of to have what to write daily without thinking too much. In this requirement part of this Contest, i can tell you that I had the opportunity to tell people about steemitm

This is Mr Ogboma whom I met in a school when we had presentation organized by @okere-blessing. He has asked a lot of questions about steemit and finally made up his mind to join steemit. He asked hiw much he will pay for a start but i told him that to join steemit is free. He asked what is his requirements to join and i told him that he needs smartphone, data and his brain as the capital to start.

He quickly send email and phone number to sign up and we did it immediately. His Username is @ogbosky. Immediately i sent a voice message to him that will help him set up his account and subscribe to newcomers community. I also told him what to do as soon as he subscribe to newcomers community. He was happy and send the message you saw here.

Here comes @isaacuwe, He is an inactive steemiain. Last 2 weeks when we had contest on help revive inactive steemiains. I reached out to him and he became interested again. I helped him recovered his keys and drop message for him on how start again on steemit. I also added him in our training group so that he can flow with others.

What are your promotion methods.

I used phone calls and wathsapp messages in this 2 Promotion. I also used voice message and link of quality post in newcomers Community and in steemalive for the Promotion. I also have flyers which is always in my bag so that i can hand it over to anyone who is interested.

What materials and branding did you use?

When I met @isaacuwe was during steemalive roadshow which he saw us in group and asked questions about what we are doing and he joined steemit. For @ogboky it steemit presentation in his school that brought him to steemit. I showed him my wallet. I showed him how reward is distributed on steemit. I also showed him some exchange where he can exchange steem. He asked me a lot of questions that I answered with some post made in steemalive Community.

What are the challenges you faced in promotion?

Challenges i am facing now is cash to sponsor Promotion because earning on steemit now is challenging. Another Challenge is people need a business that gives quick money and when i explain how earning comes on steemit. They look at as it is too small to family man or a young Man or lady to bury his time on it.

In this case I have to explain crypto and blockchain to them and tell them is all about future not now. As a result, i am spending much hours on 1 person now than before when earning on steemit was high. Sometimes it is discouraging but I know is for a short time.

How can we make Steemit more attractive to new users.

Well, steemit was more attractive before than now. We had a lot of promoters in different Communities. I remembered when @talktofaith, and when we had cryptoaccademy promoters. Steemit was lively then than now. Greeters then could not finish achievement1 that was coming in in a day and newcomers Community was increasing daily with active members but today it seems steemit Promotion has been put aside not really interesting again.

If such arrangements on Promotion should come back and promoters get surport. Steemit Promotion and training, commenting and engagement will flow naturally.

How I convinced the newbie to join?

I did that by explaining why steemit is different from other social media platform. I explained the blockchain and the reward we have on steemit. Anyone who is looking for additional income will join steemit.

Promoting, recruitment, mentoring and engagement is what we steemiains understand very well and we are helping others to understand it very well. We promote steemit with flyers, banners and branded t-shirts.
