Preview Of SteemGigs



You must have heard of Freelancer, Fiverr, Upwork etc. These are some of the mainstream freelancing-marketplaces across the internet. 

A freelancing marketplace is simply a place online where people offer their service, expertise, craft, knowledge etc (in a variety of niche or industry) in exchange for a payment and where businesses, companies, individuals, recruiters etc visit, to seek out freelancers. 

Freelancers may not be experts, may be experts, may be better-than-experts etc. 

Bottomline is, freelancers work on their own terms thus, their service charge/fee etc may sometimes be less expensive as they are free to create their charge or service-fee e.g a doctor working under the premise of a hospital may be required to shape his fee in accordance with the hospital's specification; on the other hand a freelancer, may decide his own rates.

There are masses of freelancers around the world and even here on steemit. 

On steemit for instance, there are many who prefer to spend their whole day designing a logo for a client (another steemian) for 5 SBD, than spend time writing a personal blog that earns 50 SBD. They simply may find "honing their craft or expertise" more fulfilling! Many of these freelancers may like the word "client" or the feeling of having a client of clients; may like to be of help to others; may not know how to write a killer-blog; may prefer a guaranteed fixed amount; may like to exert their creativity under pressure etc

Many new steemians want to know of other ways to earn steem/SBD, without having to become a blogger and some steemians who take breaks from blogging (for a period), want to find ways to keep on evergreen on steem e.g by having a service they can offer even when they are offline steem

Also, we have that amazing community of great minds but how much do we know this community and its depth! It is always said; "exhaust all your resources"; but do we know all our resources? Do we know our steemians well enough? Do we know what each steemian can really do? 

  • How many steemians, tire out a bit and take a steemit break from blogging and curating?
  • How many regular internet users are turned away, the first time they find steemit as they aren't bloggers and may have seen only the blogging aspect of steemit?
Each Steemian has something to offer!
In reality, if we combine every steemian head and analyze fully, the combined brain power; "it is enough power to find cure for AIDS or move and displace Kilimanjaro by 20km at 20km/hour".

We took particular note of the above and #steemgigs was born some 9 months ago to start these new ones to life on steemit and give them a home. Moreso, to "exhaust all our resources" by getting to know something extra about our dear steemians; "what and just how much they can do!"

Many new steemians at the time, felt more at home upon getting on steemit, when they realized that they could also offer their service in exchange for steem or SBD and that they could also accomplish this using a transparent blog #steemgigs post. Hence, they would do a post under the #steemgigs and within this post offer a service in exchange for steem or SBD e.g i would design you a steemit logo for 5 SBD etc

We also admonished people to exert their creativity in newer ways e.g i would write your brand name on the sands of a Jamaican sea or i would write my your steemit brand name 10 times on my class' whiteboard for 5 SBD etc 

Thus, newer breeds of creativity and a new generation of service types started to occur e.g a wooden steemit library was built courtesy of a steemgig or a particular steemian who was paying steem to have food delivered to his house etc

Then, the Steemgigs discord server was created to facilitate community, foster relationships and allow for communication. 


Our intention was to get to know the true value of our steemit community first, to where we have come to know at least one reputable steemian or steemgigger in almost any niche or industry. 

With this sole knowledge, "every steem-dream or dream becomes ever-more buildable.

We decided to pace thing aright for we weren't in competition. We used the entire slow movement to evolve our vision into spanlessness, plus we wanted our vision to become deeply-rooted and unshaken. Too, we wanted it to be community-driven. (This means that we are delayed with our roadmap but still ever-present and on track. You can read the roadmap here!)

A Special Beauty Of Steemgigs

Steemgiggers could also document their progress and clients (steemgiggers) could document their satisfaction etc. 

Hence, one transaction (SteemGig) between a steemian and another can involve several steemit posts (with each post having potential to earn as a steemit post.

e.g 

  • the steemian offering his service may want to make a number of #steemgigs posts documenting his progress
  • the steemian receiving this service may want to do a SteemGig testimonial post about the experience
  • the steemian offering the service may also feel like doing his own SteemGig to document the entire experience with this particular client
  • Both steemians may want to create a SteemGig portfolio post
  • etc

Note: each #steemgigs post from the above scenario has potential value in terms of rewards, improves reputation and accomplishes steemit growth

Apart from getting paid for their service, each party can earn rewards courtesy of their #steemgigs post alone, promote themselves in the process and improve their reputation as well; "special features that centralized freelance marketplaces like Fiverr, Upwork, Freelancer etc can't pull off"

e.g look at this #steemgigs relationship below, between @kus-knee and @fisteganos from 8 months ago. 

Notice how much both parties earned as well just by documenting their experience.

Please notice the comment by @andrarchy in the screenshot above!

So don't be surprised to see a steemgigger offer up his service at zero charge! 

There is also a love & gift-economy paradigm to @steemgigs, stirred by the presence of a reputable community that is not findable on any centralized or decentralize freelance marketplace online.

To crown things, we added hashtag "untalented" to the mix to leave no stone un-turned when it comes to talent and potential talent. Along with "proof of reputable deed", we started to seek to reward "attempts at out-of-the-boxness" etc completing the model; "everyone has something to offer".


Freelancers Out there Aren't Actually Free

On centralized platforms, freelancers aren't exactly freelancers or are they? 

There are third parties involved! In the case of Fiverr for instance, Fiverr is a third-party as they get a cut from your potential pay and can determine what service you can or can't offer. 

Then there is paypal, that also act as fourth-party, when it comes to getting your actual cash on hand.

There is no doubt that @steemgigs has many advantages being on a decentralized and capable steem blockchain. For reference, read this article also written by @stellabelle:

Note that: there is also no real community on marketplaces like Fiverr, Upwork or Freelancer etc. Yes, you can DM freelancers but it is hard to stir real brotherhood because while Steemit is the home of the internet's greatest and reputable minds, incessantly rehearsing creativity using the beauty and advancement of steem technology; Fiverr acknowledge themselves as the world's largest freelance services marketplace allowing lean entrepreneurs, to focus on growth & create a successful business at affordable costs. 

SteemGigs offers a real community. Places like Fiverr, Upwork etc can mostly offer business relationships.

We Are Not Out To Disrupt Fiverr

Read this post; you will easily see the "many advantages" that decentralized @steemgigs has over marketplaces like Fiverr, Upwork or Freelancer.

But there is more......

Our vision is giant. We are on the high road! 

Steemgigs is taking a route that removes "all barriers to entry" and we accomplish this by adding an untalented paradigm to our model. We don't want any level of talent to go amiss and ofcourse speaking of talents, steem holds the best talents on planet Earth as we are incentivized to "incessantly mind with our minds" in a transparent community that values reputation.

Untalented will hold a segment on Steemgigs allowing all levels of talented to shine and rewarding attempts at out-of-the boxness

We will actively seek to spot potential talents and mine this potential. Then, we will direct them aright into the @steemgigs community to put there talent to testimonial good use in helping others build their dreams.

We want to create legends! We want to gradually have everyone tap into their superstar. We want to play a testimonial role in history, by parting part of the history that bore your dreams. We want to passionately, loving, heartfeltly bring your innovation ideas to life under an "everyone" paradigm, where each human is celebrity and were even level of talent is negligible, for "we are genius" and more than ever before: "we have each other".

Don't worry, it is possible and the untalented curriculum that has gone on on steemit for some months now is proof of this. 

We don't believe spam is the entire issue. We sift this situation to pick out "passion" and we divert this passion aright into more testimonial good use and there are testimonies that this is possible. Moreover, we are working on curriculum's and tools to help. 

If it becomes proven that "everyone has something to offer", spam will reduce.

We aren't going to be just a freelancing marketplace on a decentralized blockchain, for we want to have a heartfelt role in helping you bring your dreams to life and one more special power we have, is "utmost knowledge of our community". 

By running #steemgigs as a tag on steemit first instead of hurriedly create an interface, we built a solid community of "reputable steemians in need" and "steemians indeed". We know this people as they have laid themselves bare on the steem blockchain while accomplish #steemgigs and they have maintained "reputation" all along. 

Now than a vibrant community is in existence, it is time for the SteemGigs interface to come to life. This will help us create a hub for every steemian to keep their talents alive in the service of others. 

In another post, i will breakdown the various aspects of the steemgigs interface. Basically, it will have a separate database to store profiles of steemgiggers as well outside of steemit, a specialized editor, a search functionality and many other fun things

@steemgigs Is Now An Open Source Project On Utopian

We await your heartfelt contributions!

The one to look out for is: https://github.com/steemgigs/steemgigs


@steemgigs is now on Utopian. There has been delays and we have been behind schedule when it comes to the interface. My mum's illness changed events, then she died and things took a momentary hit and slowed down. I am very stubborn though and like to push things on my own at least to an extent and with the "too many things that i do with regards to steem", the steem community and its growth etc i can be said to be broken and needing of help. 

#steemgigs has always been a community-driven endeavor....... Even the "steemgigs" witness was named so instead of "surpassinggoogle" to represent community. Thus, putting the code on GitHub and synched with @utopian-io is the current route we are taking, so that together we can complete it. 

@elear is willing to help out too and so is @ekitcho and @fabien on @busy.org

I also want it to serve as a standing model of inspiration to many steemians who dare to dream, to tell them incessantly to "too-lazy-to-quitly dream big first (forget reality), for dreams now equaller reality".

There are many plans and the gianormousness of this plan especially for us all, we will gradually see as we build @steemgigs together. 

While steemgigs is ongoing on utopian, we will be working on the other interface behind the scenes on https://surpassinggoogle.com and create a really fun steem-interface that takes up the next piece of "steemgigs" paradigm, which is to make "everyone" a celebrity and fix content discovery and curation challenges on steem.

The third interface @teardrops, will be a hub of breakthrough testimonies filled with our tears of joy and modeled in such a way that even our saddest testimonies will have testimonial good use for the masses in the world needing incessant inspiration and for masses yet unborn, to know when they arrive that we were here and ultimately for any suffering we have done to have essence

Then we will pack the awesomest version of ourselves and mold these into a token called "@teardrops" and serve it to the nations, till each and every teardrop is rewarded.

We will use our "human" to bring some healing to humans and direct to the ultimate healer Jehovah.

Are You Ready?

We now await you on @utopian-io

Overtime, i will start doing specific task requests for @steemgigs on utopian, with hopes for contributions. 

For starters, i will be doing task request for simple things like logo, banners etc but you are all welcome to submit suggestions too.

Read this post for for knowledge on how to contribute on Utopian!

Together, we will complete the building of @steemgigs. It is already up to 50 percent done as we started with a fork of @busy.org

Incase, you want to contribute to an open-source project on utopian-io during your spare time, please feel free to remember "@steemgigs" as it an open-source project and it is enlisted as such on @utopian-io

Remember that we apply an untalented paradigm where every participant gets some rewards; "no losers". 

"Receiving itself is an art" is a core part of our curriculum.

You can have a preview of @steemgigs on steemgigs.org 

The URL is not yet secure, so we disabled the login part of it till it is considered usable. For now, it is kept on a small 16 GB server.

Hi - Thank you @surpassinggoogle! Your post is quite timely, just a couple of weeks ago I was lamenting the current gigging services, and I could see how the Steem blockchain could make a much more cost effective version of Thumbtack, Gigmasters, Gigsalad, etc. Right now, the people that bid on the services pay big bucks to be a part of it, and can get very little return.

Case in point. I am a magician doing services mostly in Indiana. I recently bid on a gig using the service Thumbtack. Here's how that panned out:
Thumbtack.png
Me and 6 other people bid on a gig. Each of our bids cost us around $5. The customer looked at all of the bids, and rejected all of them. On Thumbtack, the best case scenario is 6 magicians get nothing for their $5 bid, and one performer gets something. Worst case scenario, like this, the customer walks away, the performers get nothing, and Thumbtack pocket $5 per performer.

Another disadvantage against the current services is, it's all a "black box". I don't really know what the current market value is of what I'm bidding on until after I bid. That's because there are so many different factors in bidding on a performance. Buying a magician is not like buying a pizza! :-D I have equipment, and years of study, and gas, and insurance, and a website, etc. So, I vary my costs depending on the number of people I entertain, whether it's for a personal performance

In this particular instance, I was bidding in a blind bid. I ended up bidding $300 for a family magic show, which ended up being the highest bid. That's really what I need to bid to do this lovely hobby as a job. The lowest bid turned out to be $75, which is how you get a hobbyist hack who doesn't need the money to live. Not that I'm bitter or anything! :)
Thumbtack2.png

So, being pissed off about this, I was considering THIS VERY IDEA that you were working on. I would love if @steemgigs could implement and improve on some of the features of Thumbtack, Gigmasters, Gigsalad. Basically, allow the people wanting a worker to describe what they need, and shop for just the right person to do it for them. Allow workers to bid on projects. Allow workers and customers to rate each other.

Those are just my thoughts off the top of my head. So, hell-yeah. I have a bit of programming skills. I've got a lot of ideas. I'll catch you on Utopian.

Very special. Will return to look at this and yes catch you n utopian. Thank you for the effort. I truly didn't know of these bid-type service marketplace. I will have to look at them and add something to the steemgigs model where needed. Thank you very much

Hi Terry Boy! Thanks for this. I am writing @teardrops for now that and hoping that you can read it. I ask a fellow Steemian to teach me on utopian and i am crossing my fingers that he will do it soon.. ;) he's quiet busy for now for he has a newborn son and he is just savouring his "tears of joy".

Thanks @surpasinggoogle for continued support to all of us. You are really a great inspiration. Thank you.

Very special. Will return to look at this and yes catch you n utopian. Thank you for the effort. I truly didn't know of these bid-type service marketplace. I will have to look at them and add something to the steemgigs model where needed. Thank you very much

@emekaorjinani, I have to agree with you on this one..

Breaking News................

SteemGigs presents Steem-Based Freelance Market Place. No need of freelancer, upwork & Fiver etc anymore.

A big Thanks to our beloved TERRY on launching of this massive opportunity for this community. Here is a small gift, which I created shortly:

b8.jpg

This is not only an opportunity but in my view point: This is life changing milestone for the people who tried there best to win a project at freelancer websites. but despite having outstanding skills they never got a job only due to low rating / zero rating or having no portfolio.

You have already earned but here is once again I personally give you this one:

images.png

@surpassinggoogle, you are not only a MENTOR but also savior of thousands of people and we are witness of this reality. Here in Pakistan everyone prays for your long life. People know you by name and want to remember you for long time.

This world is so cruel for poor people. They can't survive in front of powerful people. There is only one Rule in this world:

Whoever owns the stick eventually owns his buffalo.
One who owns power owns everything etc.

But you changed this definition. Yes you have changed entire scenario man. Looking forward for the things on steemgigs specially for the poor and needy people.

All the best and stay safe. Stay Awesome and God bless you Terry!

Regards: @jawad09!

I love steemgigs.
You have a home, with steemgigs! If you have an entire vision that you want to build, that looks all impossible because you can't code etc; simply write a #steemgig or join our discord server because yes, we know several steemian developers and ultimately, we know what they can handle.

What do you want me to say, you have rendered me speechless. Thank you. Will look for your contributions on utopian soon

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

😊🤗

Hey, I am totally agree with @jawad09. Its wonderful and excellent blog of @surpassinggoogle. I like it because sir Terry @surpassinggoogle my inspiration on steemit. His way of project very excellent and useful for steemian community. Wish to best of luck

@surpassinggoogle, this is undoubtedly an innovation in the freelancing and client-customer relations industry, the paradigm to which strengths tends to portray is an enviable foresight not just into the world of cryptocurrency and service provision, but also poised to change the socio-cultural, demographic,economical and international relationships of STEEMIANS and the world at large. I sure hope that some of the challenges faced by participant in other freelancing communities would be curbed and renovated to give an awesome user experience in steemgigs,i would be up for suggestions to improve on the accessibility and user experience for @steemgigs when required. This is undoubtedly going to change the ideology of people and will be an intentional task to fortuitously enhance the skillset and originality of people here. Once again I commend you for the great work.
Also am a web designer and a Tailor, I would so much love to contribute as much as I can during this nascent stage and always. I also hope that a spot would be kept for me in the "untalented" Section to showcase my little skillset.
Please keep up the good works.

Hahaha the table is all yours. Contributions are welcome. Will do task requests soon but you can always add suggestions on utopian

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

I agree with You bro !. plz flw me n give me vote !

On steemit for instance, there are many who prefer to spend their whole day designing a logo for a client (another steemian) for 5 SBD, than spend time writing a personal blog that earns 50 SBD. They simply may find "honing their craft or expertise" more fulfilling! Many of these freelancers may like the word "client" or the feeling of having a client of clients; may like to be of help to others; may not know how to write a killer-blog; may prefer a guaranteed fixed amount; may like to exert their creativity under pressure etc

Sincerely I must say i don't really understand why people prefer to work under others than build their own empire. Today in my country most people work under the government and at the end of the month earn less or are even not paid at all for their work, So many have hand works they can explore but the courage to carry out this particular plan is not there and most times they are scared of what other people will say. Taking a step in life is one of the major thing you would do that will make you lay a foundation, when you refuse to take a step and keep procrastinating at the end of the day the vision and zeal is dead.

Why work for a government that care less about you? Why not build an empire that would be around as long as your generations live?

Well @dayjee you actually pointed out the issue of Dependency Vs Freedom. Yes it is true man earn less under the umbrella of State than it's own Empire. Actually it is due to less awareness and lack of education My Friend. But on steemit it is totally a different scenario it is a very unique place where none loses the game means it focus on Win/Win thing. Terry Boy @surpassinggoogle is also a very unique guy who is promoting steemit to every corner of Glob with his selfless efforts <3

I think for huge services and promotion for steemit @surpassinggoogle deserves a Huge Respect <3 <3

You are right bro. I use to work with a government agency. The truth is that the take home is nothing to right home about, we survive on loan. Moreso, we are always at the mercy of the directors.
This is an opportunity for everyone to be free and plan his or her life. Determine what you want your income to be and be the boss of yourself.
Thanks to @surpassinggoogle

Exactly

Steemit without restrictions. I like the sound of that. A high five for you sir!!!

So many have hand works they can explore but the courage to carry out this particular plan is not there and most times they are scared of what other people will say

I believe they are scared of taking the risk of starting their business because of the fear of not meeting their end means and the sustainability of the business.

Yes, but we will explore the possibility of adjusting there by passionately helping people build anything

What a guy you atr Terry always try to help people...
steemit is growing because of you Terry...
Thanks for all your love

It has to be disheartening for anyone when the amount of work they put in doesn't influence what they take home. There's no drive to sweat and bleed every day to get what you want in life.

Yes i agree with you @dayjee. If you let others control how happy you are, you’ll get hurt in the long run. By letting people decide how happy you are, you give away the most basic control of yourself to people that may or may not turn out to be good for you, or even responsible enough to be trusted with your happiness.
Thats why #untalented is there for you and for inspirations and motivation.
@surpassinggoogle has encouraged me so much from his posts and his life.
Set yourself one or two things you really WANT to do with your life, and work towards them. I keep mentioning this on this blog, but that’s because it’s so important! It’s probably the most important thing you can do with yourself, is to figure out what you want and how to get it! If you’re aligned with this, and you’re moving towards your goal, you’ll find small trivial things like arguments don’t bother you.

awesome post very nice @surpassinggoogle

I think this will help many stay on steemit further. Utopian proves it as well as many now have a home there.

Yes, we will gradually fully explore that market

So true @dayjee. We sure need to pursue our own dreams, taking the bull by the horn, and going all out in faith.

I want to pursue my dreams for several reasons.

  • They’re my dreams. I have a personal stake in making them real. Showing them to other people and having them enjoy them validates my experience and brings a bit more of what I value into the world.
  • I need a purpose in life. I’m not someone who can be content with an idle life. I have to be doing something in order to be happy. I have to pursue a goal. The best goal I can think of is helping others by pursuing my dreams.
  • To have a better life. If I succeed, I will be able to make adjustments in my life to make myself happier. Just because I want to pursue my dreams doesn’t mean that I don’t have more selfish goals as well.
  • To make other people’s lives better. I’ve always had the conviction that life should be about helping others and loving them. I haven’t been able to act on it due to my emotional problems, but I still want to.
  • Because life is a game and games are more fun with goals. Even mini-achievements can be satisfying. Making dreams come true are level break quests. They’re a big deal. I want to do well at this game.
  • I want to be happy. The thing that makes me happiest is dreaming. Logically, sharing my dreams should only help that. If it doesn’t, at least I’ll be able to say I tried before going back to dreaming.

I guess the reason why we have @surpassinggoogle is because he chose to pursue his dreams, one of them which is being able to help others achieve their own dreams.

How do I get more involved and where can I assist. I tend to be part of the "untalented" group... LOL.

Thanks for the post and the update.

He is building an empire, and I would love to be among those set of people that will be around.

i like that, "EMPIRE OF HUMANITY"

Everyone wants to be part of the group that is moving things and changing the world lead by no other than @surpassinggoogle himself

Hahaha it is quite similar situation with me too. The more i Read the Blogs of @surpassinggoogle the more i get involved to this world. Actually it shows that how much passionate this Terry Boy about Steemit.

I have suggested a title for him The Encyclopedia of Steemit Aka Terry Boy ;)

Oh that was you. Hahaha thank you much

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Yes it was me who suggested this title Do you like it @surpassinggoogle ?? <3 :D

Sure thing!. Thank you

Thank you

Untalented will hold a segment on Steemgigs allowing all levels of talented to shine and rewarding attempts at out-of-the boxness.
We will actively seek to spot potential talents and mine this potential. Then, we will direct them aright into the @steemgigs community to put there talent to testimonial good use in helping others build their dreams.

Great idea @surpassinggoogle embedding untalented into it to spot potential talents and to help them define their path. Great work sir Terry

Hahaha you warm my heart. Thank you alot. If you have time, i would love that your read two posts resteemed on @teardrops. I think it will broken where we are headed. There is a Facebook page you can reach me on too. If not, discord!

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

@steemgigs is now on Utopian. There has been delays and we have been behind schedule when it comes to the interface. My mum's illness changed events, then she died and things took a momentary hit and slowed down. I am very stubborn though and like to push things on my own at least to an extent and with the "too many things that i do with regards to steem", the steem community and its growth etc i can be said to be broken and needing of help.

#steemgigs has always been a community-driven endeavor....... Even the "steemgigs" witness was named so instead of "surpassinggoogle" to represent community. Thus, putting the code on GitHub and synched with @utopian-io is the current route we are taking, so that together we can complete it.

Yipee. This is a good news becuase gradually those dreams are becoming reality.Congratulation @surpassinggoogle step by step and precept upon precept we are actually surpassing google. Always praying for you.

You have all the strenght that you need.


More grace

I want to catch you on Facebook too, Please let me know your Fb i.d ?

i would love that your read two posts resteemed on @teardrops. I think it will broken where we are headed. There is a Facebook page you can reach me on too. If not, discord!

You are selfless. I was told by @olawalium to follow you when I sign up and now I know why. You have so much depth and your heart is amazing. How do you do all these you do? I am excited to join this platform. Thank you for having the interest of everyone at heart.

Many new steemians want to know of other ways to earn steem/SBD, without having to become a blogger and some steemians who take breaks from blogging (for a period), want to find ways to keep on evergreen on steem e.g by having a service they can offer even when they are offline steem

Yes you are very right Terry. Even sometimes when it's still not convenient to blog, because you need to keep up with steemit, you are forced to do it. To be able to offer our services off-line would be highly appreciated as a welcome development.

So true. Thank you very much for visiting

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

It's amazing how much is going on behind the scenes here on the platform. There are several ideas that I've had over the past months and I've wondered how they could ever come to fruition, but low and behold I am not the only one with these ideas and there are many people working their asses off to build the steem empire. now if we could roll it all into one big bundle and make everyone aware of all this awesomeness that is going on, then we would have liftoff

Yes, lift off, is part of our aim. Know the extent of our depth and awesomeness and combine this strength to create world renown beauty.

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

This seems to me to be an awesome venture not only because of the opportunities it offers to individual people here, but also because it establishes a "Steem Economy," which is good for the Steem currency overall; it would look really good in the eyes of possible new investors.

Thanks for the many things you do @surpassinggoogle, to help people here on Steemit! This is what a giving economy should be all about.

Thank you very much. Together, we will pull this off and ofcourse with the help of our creator Jehovah in Jesus' name amen

Amen. You have my support 100%. I can only hope it amounts to something.

You are selfless. I was told by @olawalium to follow you when I sign up and now I know why. You have so much depth and your heart is amazing. How do you do all these you do? I am excited to join this platform. Thank you for having the interest of everyone at heart.

Sorry for the loss of your mum, accept my condolence as my token of @teardrops

My the grace of God be more sufficient to you.

As per this innovation. I am so much falling in love with this, this will certainly give everyone a more better chance on steemit. This has decentralized the notion that you can only thrive as a writer or blogger on steemit. This will create a path for artisans and professionals who are not into the idea of writing.

This will encourage a level play ground for everyone to come board and exercise their potential.

I haven't see a freelance that is totally free, they always provide their services either cheap or for you to help them market their business and in return they start making more sales.

This new platform will put more smile on people face and will also generate more income and connection for the people within the community.

Stay strong @surpassinggoogle.

Indeed the biggest loss in one's life is the Death of one's Mother :(

Thanks for your support and kind words @fadiji09. This shows how much audience love this Great Human Being @surpassinggoogle and actually he deserves this Love, Affection and Care.

Terry! thank you so much for giving us so so much <3

@salmanbukhari54, i actually envy him. He his a strong believer in good course. He has really shown why this community has come to stay. He has really lifted the weary soul on steemit and has also be a source of courage ti anyone going through hard times now. May God continue to sustain him.

Yes and there is prove that it works. If you check the sample links, among the first steemgigs was carried out by @fisteganos a naija bro and he got more than 300 on the post alone at a time when steem price was very low. He also got paid by @kus-knee for the gig and they spurred a relationship that involved a facetime call
As for my mum, may Jehovah help. I did sheer depression and hauntedness and alot of wailing before this post.

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

I am sorry about your mom @surpassinggoogle
Resurrection hope really helps us to cope with the sorrow the death brings.
Jah will strengthen you brother.

Thank you very much. Yes, resurrection hope helps matters

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

It takes a strong mind to be courageous in the face of difficulties and depression.

Even with downward step in your life you still pick up your mantle of achieving and being successful

You have actually done a great research in up staging #steemgigs into containing a who lot of people and also creating the interactive environment between buyers and sellers of good works.

I wish more talent will be discovered and developed using @steemgigs channel.

Thanks for this new research. Stay strong @surpassinggoogle

I am deeply sorry about your mum. I know how that feels myself. Strength my brother. Courage.

@surpassinggoogle, this project is awesome! Today is the first time I heard of it by reading your post and I'm already in a better mood now ;)
I ended my regular job three months ago and now I'm looking for different ways to make a living by doing some kind of freelance work (I'm a programmer and a translator). I am now working very very hard to gain reputation on Fiverr and Upwork, but as you have hinted in your post it is really hard, because there is NO community, just a raw "fight" to make a better offer (by sacrificing monetary blessing). And there are 3rd and 4th parties that take a big chunk of your hard work - it can be so dishartening! :(
However, what you have outlined here (I also previewed steemgigs.org) brings a bright light of hope for me.
I will be glad to support the project in any way I can, just to make this happen! Keep up your super great work!

Good to have people like you. Welcome on board.

Good to have people like you. Welcome on board.

Very sweet to hear. May i please ask, do you code on steem as well. Are you familiar with react language?

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

No, sad to say, I don't code on steem and I learned only some basics of react. However, I'm pretty familiar with JavaScript and other scripting languages. At the moment I primarily work on making all kinds of automations, mostly written in AppleScript and Swift (also VBA automations), but this is of no use here :(
I'm a fast learner though and I already have React and React Native on my wish list (to learn as my new items of my Swiss army knife). Hmmm, when I finish my ongoing projects, I may start with React...

SteemGigs is another brilliant and wonderful macro project that gives body and shape to all the talents and even those to explore, this project involves us all, you have always said, everyone has something to offer! A market place based on Steem solidifies our Steem and all our beautiful community. So we must all get involved in it. Of course, I am organizing my activities and I will also join to offer my services with steemgigs, with God's favor.
I'm still not clear on how to make the contributions in Utopian, but I'll read these post you've referenced and I'll try.
I put myself in the task of sharing this information. I am present and very happy that your projects to enlarge this community are advancing! Tqm.

Sweetie. It is all small now but you will have a big role to play when it becomes big. In the meantime, do you think you can have time to translate this post in Spanish? And do you by any means know anyone who can translate into Korean?

Of course, I will gladly translate your post!
I do not know anyone for translation in Koreano, but let's investigate
If you need German, I know someone who can do it.

Okay German too. I can the link. Thank you very much

This looks like an amazing platform!

wow! Terry this seems incredible! It seems I should really find some time to thoroughly understand Steemgigs! Do you have any partners from CN community to bring this to the Chinese speaking world? I'll find time to learn more about it and see what I can do to promote it further.

Cheers, Dean

What a pleasant surprise to see a very prominent name from CN Community Sir @deanliu. I think this could be a wonderful idea to translate this project to Chinese language so that people from china could understand and participate accordingly. in this regard I can offer my services and I with the help of my dearest friend @rivalhw can provide a detailed translation for CN Community. @rivalhw is a great and very kind person towards mankind. So I hope we will do it within short time @surpassinggoogle. Thanks for your comment @deanliu and Thanks Terry for your awesome idea and implementation here at steemit. All the best!

Really, how about for Korea? I dont mind seeing a translation from your friend

Gosh i will so love that. SO so so. I wonder if you have time to help me translate this post. And you by some chance know someone you can write in Korean too? Steemgigs is mostly an interface where you will find out the service that steemians can offer in every field or industry and avail of their service by paying steem, sbd or steem power etc and where you can come to request tasks to be done but beyond that we will actively help recommend connections and we will have untalenteed side to it, where will will spot and reward potential talents and help them get better by encouraging to offer a service

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

I probably don't have much time, but if you need me I can find someone who can like last time. Let me know if you still need me for this purpose (message on discord seems a better way to inform me). Actually, translation is the most basic job for promoting sth to the CN world and tons of people can do that too. I have always been a fan of freelance jobs and I tend to think that modern jobs should all be dissembled into tasks in the future with the help of blockchains. That's basically why I am interested in knowing more about your project. Well, I'll find time to learn more and then talk to you later.

Cheers, Dean

Yes. I will be on the discord soon. Yes, i would love the translation. See you on discord

Terry, I am glad to witness the birth of steemgigs.org . Big CONGRATULATIONS!!!
congratulations.jpg

@maryfavour.

Too thank you

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media ToKens)

We took particular note of the above and #steemgigs was born some 9 months ago to start these new ones to life on steemit and give them a home.

You have earn so much respect and of cause you are a good example. @surpassinggoogle

Amazing!!!! Voted!

Thank you for sharing, God bless :-)

@surpassinggoogle, why is it that is hard to get upvote on quality post this days?

There are many posts and many queues. So the aim should be to stand out not to simply create content

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

For a broken man, you sure to keep that mind moving. I'm still getting immersed in trying to understand how everything fits, but I completely get the concept you are going for here with Steemgigs. I wanted to drop you a note and let you know that I read it and I'm paying attention, plus I also wanted to tell you that we are amassing troops to help your causes. There are many people out there that will help once they understand things, the trick is to coordinate the process.

Keep doing the wonderful things you do, but I also hope you get the time to heal yourself. The world will be a better place when you succeed with your visions, so make sure you take care to protect our biggest asset.

Cheers Terry, and once again, I'm impressed young man!

Thank you very much

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

As someone who has been frustrated with hiring from Upwork, which has a myriad of issues and lacks any sense of community, I welcome this! I would love to outsource my next project on Steemit. I am resteeming this so that I have the info when ready to do so.

Thank you very much. We will work hard together

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

That is really great. I am impressed with the work and can clearly see people using it in future for all the sort of freelance work with no problem of payment method or money.

@surpassinggoogle have you considered making SP as the reward for the Steemgigs so that both the parties involved in the trade will have long term perspective of Steem on their mind?

I wrote about it in my post https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@gokulnk/why-prize-money-tips-and-gifts-on-steem-blockchain-should-always-be-in-steem-power

Yes it is in the plan. If you check the #untalented paradigm, every participant gets rewards

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

The truth is you can send sp directly. Infact i just sent you small sp directly

You simply need to click on power up then on "Advanced"

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

This is a handy feature. I didn't know about this. Checking it out now.

Yes, it is. I have used it many times. Just attemt to power up, then go to advance and change the username and it will power up the new account

Cool! Thanks, this is inspiring to me. I'm going to play with small welding and brazing projects that I can do to sell for steem!

This is a welcome development sir. I have utmost respect for you, this project with the teardrops is a testament to how human you are. I have learnt so much from you and I will continue to do so.

The possibilities is endless, I mean a "triple win situation" where you earn while doing what you love and in so doing foster relationships while becoming popular or known.

You grasped all the graspables. You awesome bro. Stay awesome

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

I do not find anything that speaks about you!!!

twas more about us

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

I like that Steemgigs can potentially cut out the middleman such as Fiverr from the equation. That allows both parties to benefit more from the transaction. I also like the fact that we can get paid in Steem or SBD. It also gives us a stake in the Steem platform in the future.

Yeah very true. Steem all the way, In our life we use many types of social platform like facebook, instagram, snapchat, what's app thanks to the technology but i don't know social media that pay except steemit. Social platforms are using our data to make millions but what we get free chats, video calls etc. You know that's not lot of things compared to the millions. But in steemit we paid for what we do. In here we can share our thoughts and stuff we like and you know lot of people are making hundreds even thousands. I think who doesn't like making money with sharing their hobbies and stuff. The point is 2 or 3 years later steemit may become most popular social platform. #untalented has given me so much confidence in steem.

You're so nice for commenting on this post. For that, I gave you a vote!

Yes @xalos you're right and i second your opinion 100%. Actually this is what i have learnt from this great platform it is all about Win/Win and none loses in it :) Surely it will give the masses a stake in the Steem !

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Hiiii @surpassinggoogle.you are really great!

I feeling much excited when saw your new post and desired to be top comment here. I am realy a big fan of you because of your multitalanted personality. you always do for steem community. your every post has a guideline for us.your every plan is a symbol of your creativity.
your that new feature is appreciatable. and hope much active as usual. thanks.

"SteemGigs" Our Steem-Based Freelance MarketPlace Where "EveryOne Has Something To Offer" Is Now On Utopian-io. Join Us In Bringing It To Full-Blown Life.

I think steem and steemit is a very good opportunity to invest in.
I think that you should definitely invest more in Steemit. This will give you the confidence that the Steemit platform is here to stay and that hopefully the value of Steem will also increase.

These are some reasons why the Steemit platform awesome, and why you should invest in it?

First, it is awesome because you can start a blog and earn money immediately with it. Of course, you won’t get hundreds, even tens, when you are starting, but this can come very quickly if you persists.

You can look at some other accounts and see that at one point, posts that were earning cents are earning twenty or thirty US dollar when the posts are of quality of course, and you have built some followers.

Second, Steemit is great because other users can build apps over the Steem blockchain.

Have also a look at the new DTube video site built on top of the Steem blockchain where creators can earn Steem by posting videos. It is perfectly integrated with Steemit and was created by user @heimindanger

There are many more apps that I can’t show you that will help increase the value of Steem in the future.

The third thing I will mention is that you can power up your Steem so you can use your Steem Power to upvote your own posts, upvote others’ posts and comments to build relationships and earn curation rewards.

You can also loan your Steem Power out and get paid Steem back for this. Have a look at MinnowBooster to loan your Steem Power out.

I do not know of another cryptocurrency which has so much potential with a great community and tools.

And finally, steemit is a site that is giving somuch hopes to a lot of people who have lost hope. Look at the #untalented, developed by @surpassinggoogle, it has given somuch hope to people, me in particular.

Thank you very much @surpassinggoogle .I have indeed used Fiverr before .This is another useful tool to tell all my friends who joining .Iam still relatively new myself .Are there any other Steemit related tools that we can use . A good friend of mine @Clivemartin told me about a useful steemit tool where we can get all our statistics https://steemworld.org/ with your username after the / .I will look out for your future posts to get more knowledge from you are more experienced steemian

Totally agree with you! 3d and 4th parties are not interested in how we are doing, they don't even know us. Here is different, you can feel the connection with the real people and in the end that matters the most.

So exactly

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

I see a bright future for Steem no matter what the current market reads.

The fact that payment will be in sbd and STEEM will give more value to the. I see Steem being the number 1 cryptocurrency in the nearest future

Yes, that and more

Hey @xalos
Its very nice idea of @surpassinggoogle. I totally agreed with you.

Boy Terry aka@surpassinggoogle. Do you know is not easy for me to write a post without mentioning your name. I so much believe in your dream and all that you represents on this platform. Just like the last two post i just finished writing some few hours and minutes ago. I wish a lot of guys that critcize you can see what am seeing.
You have such a big dream for this platform and you have a good way of expressing it.

Even of some peole think i don't have talent.Your word alone has convince me that ibhave anlot to offer this platform abd the word at large and am not going to stop.
You are not alone becausr somenof us already joined #steemgigs on utopia-io already.
Thank you for makingsure that everyone is useful and appreciated.
You truly a blessing to us on this platform.
Of a truth you are mine steemit crush.

Hahaha thank you very much. We have a long road together. Thank you for persistently remembering me

It’s enough already for me to read all your inspiring words here. This business you are making is the future of steemit and you are leading all of us to a much better path.. you are the legend @surpassinggoogle! :) and also the @teardrops project is one of a kind. Si much positivity you show to people. Thank you for being the light on our roads :)

You are welcome!

You welcome sir. Always proud of you.

This is good news. Business relationships should be more than based on just a transaction of goods and money.

So exactly

Yes sir! Thanks for the post and the update . we always love to read your post. Upvote and resteemed.

Very true! Business should also be fun and make you happy when ordering, discussing the requirements, when delivering the product or service, when getting payed, when reading the feedbacks. Yes, business model is due to be changed ;)

steem future will be very shine for this kin of work .

BY THE WAY HOW WAS YOUR MOTHER @surpassinggoogle
great post
resteem and upvoted

I believe @surpassinggoogle mum is fine, she is having a good time with God in paradise, waiting for us to finish our course here, and come join her.
Keep up the good work @surpassinggoogle

My mum died

After the huge loss this guy is still doing so much for steemit ...
he is the legend

O, I'm sorry to hear that☹️ @surpassinggoogle. She is resting from this worlds stress and corruption😇. Seemed like my life was over when my dad died, when I was a child. Thank GOD I made it through!.😁. I'm happy to be here on steemit because i find comfort here reading your posts. Thanks @surpassinggoogle

I know how that feels. You are so strong. Going through all that and you still came out fighting. Your @teardrops challenged me and while i wrote and posted something about it two days ago, i could see flashes and memories weighing me down. God is your strength sir!

Yes you are right, because the Future belongs to Crypto World and Steemit is rocking under this scenerio.

Great Authors like @surpassingoogle is working Really Hard to make this Platform a place of Kindness and Love.

Hopefully it keeps rocking on! Gotta have faith in these trying times :P

Yes, Steem future is very bright.
I'm also planning a steemit trade fair where people can buy different things with sbd and STEEM

Steem sure is the way forward
Steem is Most secured social platform with so much connectivity and relationships.
It's 21st century , century revolution of technology and data is one of important thing i think you guys heard about lost their data to hackers. It's not just money stuff you know nowadays hacking is one of the thing people fear of the exchange thing you know . I think i heard news about facebook hacked 2 or 3 years before i guess. This is showing how risky it becomes everyone don't want to loose his or her private thing like nude pic or password etc. In steemit you don't need to worry about this because is safest place that you ever had
Thanks @surpassinggoogle, #untalented had been a blessing. Its a family indeed

Many new steemians want to know of other ways to earn steem/SBD, without having to become a blogger and some steemians who take breaks from blogging (for a period), want to find ways to keep on evergreen on steem

thank you @surpassinggoogle for another of your hi-tech initiative

You are very welcome

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media ToKens)

I love the idea, the more services are being created where Steem currencies are accepted, the better. And sharing the progress using @steemgig and make a little earning on that a beautiful little bonus. We're in the market for some new logos. Thank you for putting so much time and effort into this.

Exactly. You are welcome

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart Media tokens)

Steemgigs sounds like such an amazing project. I did some free lancing work on Fiverr before but I didn't it like it too much. I felt that I was being heavily limited by Fiverr by what I really wanted to do. I feel that I can offer so much more using Steemgigs instead.

fiverr and Upwork both have changed their policies. that's for the newbies​ it is very difficult to work on those platforms​.

Yes i agree with that there is hundred of bids on small projects. Its very difficult to get work on these sites .It is better to read some posts & make good comments on steemit. You will earn more than work for a week on freelancer sites.

And you will learn additional by rendering your service to others hear and the currency its self even steem has value as steem power etc

Very well expressed ;) Steemit is a way more rewarding platform (financially and personally)

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

Yes, I definitely agree. I really didn't have a pleasant experience on it even though I reached a level 2 provider on Fiverr. I always felt I was being exploited by their platform.

yeah. I​ have done 75 Projects on Fiverr​. but after I was busy in my ​exam for a month. so when I came back​ they have rated down my account. which was really a panic. so I left Fiverr.

No doubt

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Yes, it has worked successfully for months even without an interface, an interface will give it more life

Yes. Same applies to me. I'm very sure I will like this one and you will like it too.
@surpassinggoogle has a record of doing the best when it comes to doing things

Steemgigs is awesome project you are right everyone has something to offer. Steemit is more trusted than other frelancer sites like freelancer.com upwork etc. It is easy to pay directly with steem & built good relation with clients. steemgig is very innovative idea.It is good news that steemgig is now on utopian.io.

Thank you. Looking forward to contributions soon

I agree with you on that. Steemgigs is more trusted

Well said

Well said

After reading this post, I was totally amazed of how wonderful is the concept. The fact that you have brought this idea, it shows that you don't just have a great mind, but most of all you have a great heart especially to the poor people...Now, I am thinking on how am I able to contribute on steemgigs. I wish I could also share my best talent not only to earn , but to inspire and help... I checked out steemgigs.org and I saw how awesome it is. We continuously support #steemgigs and we are proud of you Terry @surpassinggoogle

great this is. A great community for great people inside it. Thanks for sharing this.

You are welcome

Cool @steemgigs. An amazing platform that will give open source project contributors fair rewards for the output that they provide. This will in time become a game changing platform for freelancer, developers, etc. cant wait to see the site 100% completely.

Aren't you just adorable. Amala and Gbegiri is waiting here for you in Ibadan, Nigeria. Massive respect!!!

Great work @surpassinggoogle

Steemgigs is taking a route that removes "all barriers to entry" and we accomplish this by adding an untalented paradigm to our model. We don't want any level of talent to go amiss and ofcourse speaking of talents, steem holds the best talents on planet Earth as we are incentivized to "incessantly mind with our minds" in a transparent community that values reputation.

God bless you for this and many more Oga Terry.

Thank you bro

Again, I want to say kudos to the boss himself @surpassinggoogle for this initiative. I always ask myself if you have time to rest at all.
Meanwhile, I will urge everyone to make use of this opportunity open to us by @surpassinggoogle. See ya all there

I dont rest. My body doesnt any longer know how to sleep. I dont have anything that a regular boy has. This is my role though. For the sake of many, i have to push. When the tools are ready., i will have some rest

Potentially amazing project indeed! This will help the #steemit community to strengthen it's value towards digital currency. Hence, inviting more to #steemit, will create more and more practical source of homebase jobs.

It will help a lot of authors here good or not, showcasing there skills in this industry and so, it creates stable and more profitable gain towards the end.

Kudos to the TRUE potential of #steemgigs (I forgot the name I was talking to about the real job of #steemgigs here) but to both and the rest of #steemgigs team. KUDOS and Bless you guys!

Steem gives is more than a community. I am glad I found this great community within Steemit. Glad to be onboard.
Many steemians, upon reach steemit, get lost in only the blogging aspect of steemit and forget the other aspects of the steem blockchain. They also tend to forget who they were before they got on steemit but #steemgigs is already helping to adjust this!
I will reference a post by @steemgigs beliw
According to me, bring your vision, dreams, expertise, brands, that always existed before steemit and take it to a whole new level by virtue of steem technology.
Thank you @steemgigs. I want to say that @surpasdinggoogle has been a major driver of it. When i heard @steemgigs was going to be a witness, i immediately voted. Thank you.

Yes, we actually need to vote #steemgig more to help push it towards one of the most voted steemit witnesses.

Thank you bro

Very lengthy but loaded stuff..
Funny enough I've asked my friends most of the questions @surpassinggoogle highlighted via this post.
I'll sure copy all and reread...
I'm really inspired by this especially this

Many new steemians want to know of other ways to earn steem/SBD, without having to become a blogger and some steemians who take breaks from blogging (for a period), want to find ways to keep on evergreen on steem e.g by having a service they can offer even when they are offline steem

My post have weighthty intentions and especially for newer steemians, so please read as several of them as you can. Thank you for drawing inspiration from this.

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media ToKens)

I am ready to support every single endeavour of yours @surpassinggoogle. This is a brilliant idea and most of us can't wait for it to be launched.

Most people have found joy on steemit.com. Now imagine a platform where they can do what they love and get paid. This is sweet. I am already imagining what will happen. It is going to explode.

Thanks. You are so amazing. God bless you and keep increasing you everyday with knowledge that will help make our world a better place. 🤗

So yes!

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Steemit has its own Blogger (steemit), YouTube(Dtube), dlive(Fb/YT live) and now Upwork/Fiverrr (Steemgigs). This is amazing!

That's one of the reasons to proof that steemit is really beyond ordinary blockchain

Hahaha yes

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media ToKens)

Steemgigs is what was needed. Freedom all the way! Steemgiggs is making up for everything Fiverr and Upwork couldn't do for users. Thanks @surpassinggoogle!

Have a great day!

Exactly steemgig is very innovative idea for the community. We should spread awareness about it because most of the people on steemit don't know about it.

Thank you

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Amazing Approach and Innovation at its peak

We aren't going to be just a freelancing marketplace on a decentralized blockchain, for we want to have a heartfelt role in helping you bring your dreams to life and one more special power we have, is "utmost knowledge of our community".

Just let me know more about utopiani am quite intersted to take part in this to make your sure my contribution.

Other than than that i am a poet and can convey the message through my Poetry. last but not the least I can do any thing to promote Steemit @surpassingoogle :)

All d best for the new project @surpassinggoogle . Can't wait to use it hands on. Receive Rewards for Contributing to Open Source Projects! absolutely new project which you will definitely like!

Wow. Nice one. Thanks for constantly reminding us that

Each steemian has something to offer.
It keeps resounding in me that I'm #Untalented (Limitlessly talented) so I feel the force and energy in me to keep pushing forward and trying out new things everyday... Why? Cos I'm limitlessly talented.
Thanks for always trying to make Steemit a better place for every steemian, especially we the newbies.

You sounded funny when you said

our energy all together can be used to move Kilimanjaro by 20km.

Also sorry for your mum.

May his Mum Rest in Heaven Amen! Although this loss can never be fulfilled but We all Love you Terry BOY <3 <3

Stay Strong @surpassingoogle <3

Thank you. Yes humor is needed

Alright.

This is fantastic! I can't believe I wasn't even aware of steemgigs until now :O I'll have to check this out. Maybe I'll be able to offer something useful to the community!

Hahaha yes, it has existed. @kus-knee had a recent steemgig

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

I don't know about steemgigs before thanks for telling me about this.I'm actually web designer by occupation and most of the time i do freelancing on upwork but it is very hard to get work because these sites are now very congested .Now i will see the tag #steemgig so that i would get somework here.Thanks for love & support.

The interface will be ready to test soon. So no worries. BTW @kus-knee had a recent steemgig post

Freelancing is very interesting because his not part of the system but heir to perform the task due his professionalism and charge for his work done. Steemit blogging his also an exclample of freelancing if they found your work interesting people upvote.

Exactly

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

Wow? This is a massive project is going to go far and it will surely be helpful to the community.

Thanks

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

I everyone has something to offer and this is true, this is a great innovation sire terry and the man above s your guild on this one, i am happy for this project.
Steemians can make an order for the services they know nothing of and get it done by other steemians with such service professional.
LOVELY, step out of the boxness of untalented* @surpassinggoogle the gift i said i have for you for the #Untalented-curriculum is on its ways today kindly support the movement more on artistry when its out. thanks sire terry, the man above is your guild

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

Exactly, we will actively play a role in each steemian dream. That is how far we want to go and not that a major part of our voice is for the developing nations

its great and Lovely, we all who commented here endorsed this,
great concept

sire have you checked this out the song i made for untalented steemgigs?


find the post here

UNTALENTED ME, who I'm i to you

Steemgigs is a welcome development, where freelancers can display their expertise for additional earnings. What can be better than being rewarded for your skills?

What makes Steemgig even more intesting is: 'Steemgigs is taking a route that removes "all barriers to entry" and we accomplish this by adding an untalented paradigm to our model. We don't want any level of talent to go amiss and ofcourse speaking of talents, steem holds the best talents on planet Earth as we are incentivized to "incessantly mind with our minds" in a transparent community that values reputation.'

So exactly. It is sweet to hear. Stay awesome.

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

You have done so well @surpassinggoogle, multi-tasking every time, i wonder if you are human or a robot.. Lol
@Steemgigs is on my witnesses vote list.
Always supportive, @euronation is here for you. I can't wait for the completion of the project

They say i am robot with human heart. But i am broken

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Jehovah will refix you, Amen

Steemgigs! Here we go!!

So yes!

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

After translating your post, I feel a little interested to join and succeed like you and your other friends @surpassinggoogle. But, I still do not understand, what should I do from now on.
Maybe I have constraints and obstacles of language.

My greetings from Aceh, Indonesia.

With #steemgig being listed as an open source project, you can help translate the website and its components into your native language so that you and your tribe can benefit from the project

Pacing is key. If language is a deterrent to your posts under #untalented for a start. Then we go from there. Overall, write in your language if it convenient. Then join the steemgigs discord community link at the bottom of my post, and in general chat, look to mention either @artaddict @samic @ankarlie @sunnylife etc they will give you direction.

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Thank you for your advice and advice @dubem-eu and @surpassinggoogle. I will try it in the near future. May I succeed.

This is good news. Business relationships should be more than based on just a transaction of goods and money. People are behind every exchange that takes place and it's good to put some humanity back into the networks that we foster when we choose to work for each other or solicit work from each other. And yeah, those other junky websites should not be held up as models, they're pretty subpar as it quickly becomes a race to the bottom.

"500,000 upvotes for 5 dollars! Copy-pasted logo for 5 dollars!" Lol.

Yes i like the creativity at the end and ofcourse the "human" part, which is very key to what we do

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Nice development... I see this thriving fast... Congratulations to steemgigs

Thanks

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

This is an awesome idea! I definitely have used Fiverr before and really cool we can do this with Steem now.

Yes it has been happening for months now. The interface will make it better

Hey that is the first time I've seen something about teardrops since the initial post talking about it! Good to see it again :).

Love Steem Gigs!

Thanks

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

I need your support man, sorry I didn't use your tags but I did really write the post from the bottom of my heart, I really want to make a little change in steemit but I didn't find the right people for that, I spend all the day helping people in my facebook group with more than 18000 members, showing them how to post how to be better in steemit, here is my post that I want some suppport for it : Do you think steemit is good enough ? , sorry if you consider this a spam but I just want to be noticed a little bit, because I am working hard for about 8 months and I didn't get the result that I was expecting.

This is not spam to me. You can like my facebook page and contact me there. You fb page is huge. We can talk soon

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

this is the idea after my big group : Steemit for resteem group , I am also looking for active people there to make it huge and here is what I propose : Earn 30% with the group , I hope you will help me to make it huge and useful for the community, we have very low steem power now, just 1500 total between me and my partners.

I did send you a message in facebook, here is my facebook page : Senouci

Yes,I also felt more at home upon getting on steemit,when i realised that i could offer my services in exchange for steem or SBD,STEEMIT ROCKS.

Awesome testimony

Thanks I will take a look at it.

Steemgigs sounds very potentially for the steemian's to contribute. I've long heard the word SteemGigs from Terry or @surpassinggoogle, it looks like a very good project for us to participate in it. Because here also get real rewards, hopefully this project can run smoothly.

Yes hopefully it will. Jehovah is in charge

Wow! This is my first time of hearing freelancer and upwork my dear ,thanks for this costly information you brought to our door step free of charge.

You are welcome. Now you also know of @steemgigs

Steemgigs seems to be an amazing project. I hope your hard work will payout good for sure. It will be of great use to freelancers who dream big. I think Steemgigs will take freelancing in a decentralised platform to a next new level.
Keep up your good works and we are always with you. Thank you sir!

No doubt. This existed for long already. Now it is time for an interface

@steemgigs are like a family from a community. Everyone has duties, everyone is responsible for an affair. Everyone is trying to carry this ship. I hope I can be one of the family. I hope I can help you with such good work. I hope you guys love me and give me value. I hope this family grows together. @surpassinggoogle
I am taking the first step with you to grow this family. I share this post as more people see it and I follow the necessary steps to join this family. @steemgigs

I followed @teardrops, sir. what is the next step? I'm waiting for your answer

Actually, I have been hearing about freelance and freelancing services but none have detailed and explained it to me like you did in this post. Am much more educated on it now, thanks so much!

You are welcome

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

Can You please describe me what is utopan-io ...Please mate. I have saw lots of post by using utopan-io.. please describe it friend...

Utopian is a site build on steem, where you can conttibute to build open source projects findable on github. You can contribute logos, translation, ideas, suggestions, etc to any project on github since they are open source. Now when you contribute, utopian rewards your contributions by approving and voting on them if approved. If you have open source projects too, you can synch it with utopian using github and request contributions. Steemgigs is a project on utopian, so you can contribute to it. I will be doing a task request for logos soon

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

What is github?? How I will post my blog on github sir?????

You’re doing a great job @surpassinggoogle. We the Steemit uyo community are thankful to you.
This is a great development

Thank you much. i know many from UYO. Afang all the way

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Looks so awesome @surpassinggoogle! I followed you and look forward to updates! I also checked out the site, just an fyi...you have worpress instead of wordpress!

...I can tell this is going to be huge, keep up the great work!

Thank you much. Where do i have worpress? I missed it

This is a great project in being able to connect freelancers and those in need or client's.

It can be anything that they can do for one another.

It's great when people will be helping others free of charge because they are fully supported by the system that is the beauty of a gift economy indeed.

I know Terry that you are such a kind person and you want to help people but a lot of people misuse your tag of steemgigs without knowing what it should be used for but only to gain your attention and upvote.

It will be hard to educate people especially if what they want is just a free lunch but I know the people around you will help educate them.

More power to steemgigs and @steemitfamilyph and #steemitachievers are 100 % behind you.

Thank you very much for everything

#steemgigs is a viable service for a world that is opening its arms to creativity and removing barriers preventing the sharing of talents and ideas. I'm excited to hear about this!

Thank you

Take some imaginary @teardrops (smart media tokens)

Thank you for your generosity! I am very happy to support you and the #teardrops concept.

This is EPIC!

Steemgiggers could also document their progress and clients (steemgiggers) could document their satisfaction etc.
Hence, one transaction (SteemGig) between a steemian and another can involve several steemit posts (with each post having potential to earn as a steemit post.

I'm on Utopian-io part that I need to understand in more detail.

Excellent job @surpassinggoogle. You have proved yourself to be a visionary once again and this time with something very cool.

Steem On!

Thank you very much. You will understand when i do first set of task requests on utopian for @steemgigs

You're so nice for commenting on this post. For that, I gave you a vote!

Your post always power me up, cleared all doubts and confusion about steemgigs. Now eagerly wating to get my account working on steemgigs. This post made me clear why and how everyone have something to offer 👍

This is all so liberating and inspiring! The idea that I can do my work as a freelancer in 'real life' AND on Steemit is... WOW. I need to think how I can offer some of my services (photography, photo editing, simple but nice minimalistic graphics) digitally will be one I need to think about for a while, but I'll certainly register with #steemgigs #uptopia and make even better use of the world of Steemit. Thanks a lot for the energy, time, entusiasm you've put into this! It makes me sleep less hours but fills me with joy instead :D

Thank you. Very special comment with lot of feelings. Thank you. I already have a task request on utopian for @steemgigs. It involves graphics!

Take some imaginary @teardrops (Smart Media Tokens)

I initially thought steemit to be only a blogging site. Never ever it crossed my mind that steem allows so much freedom to create new things over it to add value to whole program. Just today i learned about zappl and now steemgigs.

Steemgigs is actually a great concept. I can get myself an intro made for my youtube channel which i am not able to make since so long. I can make thumbnails for other youtubers in return for SBD. A lot of youtubers have actually hired people to make thumbnails for them. steemgigs will be yet another solution for those who want to get their thumbnails done. Most importantly this may help steem & SBD have an actually scenario. This will help SBD increase in its value by increasing a demand for it. In other words most people will now be able to actually buy something from steem and steem dollars.

So yes. It is currently ongoing on steemit and has been for months now. The interface will making so much more easier
