My Shameless Self-Promotion

in introduceyourself •  6 years ago 

As they say, the best way to learn is to teach. So I'm forever learning all things communication and business development, working primarily in the IT industry and most recently Blockchain.

Our industry is in a crisis when it comes to understanding what the hell is going on, despite managing big data. It's way too easy to get lost in the contradictory signals and burn out while the rest of the world is moving past you into the stars.

I aim to help entrepreneurs, managers, and founders up their game in various ways, from equipping themselves with better tools to developing a clear vision of where their project is headed. This is why I send out daily e-mails with tips and ideas.

To talk a bit about how I got here: I started out in freelance copywriting and moved on to being a technical writer. This was my gateway into the IT world as a whole. Preparing project summaries, marketing materials for software platforms, writing presentations for investors and so on - all this eventually got me into SaaS sales.

During my career I arranged web development for SMEs, managed software projects involving Blockchain, organized IT outsourcing for clients in over six countries. All this time I self-studied and worked on my business development; embarked on ventures and built relationships with partners all over the globe. Now I'm back to my roots as a writer with a mission to build mutually beneficial relationships between great projects and audiences.

Recently I delved deeper into the Cryptocurrency sphere and often talk about the principles behind Blockchain. I also discuss global industry trends such as IoT, Smart Cities, Machine Learning, etc. My writing is usually about ideas and principles, not always news - usually large themes and long-term ways to build a skill stack that will help position yourself for the coming future.

Hello anster! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
