Hello Steemians,

I am @theessential

We have all heard of the many minnow support groups that exist on Steemit and Discord. All of these groups are doing a service to the community. Not only do they help new Steemit users, but they help publicize new quality content here on Steemit.

As much as these services help minnows, I think we can all agree that at the end of the day, it becomes very difficult for a new Steemian to be recognized enough to receive large payouts without the use of bots or resteem services.

A person can spend hours making an awesome post that will receive next to no views/ rewards in the 7 days prior to its first payout.

The basic solution to this problem is be persistent. A new minnow must work everyday to comment, and author quality posts until he/she builds a following and attracts the attention of the whales.

Obviously this is the generic version but essentially, this is what it takes. Sounds easy right? Well yes and no. If a person comes here with the drive to be successful and puts in the work, they will more than likely have success eventually- assuming their content is making a contribution to the community.

But how long will this take?

Well, it depends. With the top dogs taking the bulk of the reward pool rewards every week, it feels as if minnows will never prevail. Sure, we see new people break through the ceiling every day, but what about you? Haven’t you been working tirelessly? What if there was a way for a minnow to rise up through the ranks a little quicker?

Minnows-R-US

I’m proposing a new refined minnow group. We’re gonna call it “Minnows-R-Us” Or MRUS. This is not meant to compete with the other minnow projects that exist but rather to simply add supplementation. I want to create a network of minnows and who wish to support each other. If we have the backing of the whales too, that will be an added bonus but right now we need each other. This will include a discord group and a hashtag also.

Know that I will be working hard to make this successful. I know that with your support, we can bring something new and meaningful to the Steemit community. It’s time for something new and fresh..something that you can be a part of as a new Steemian! We will grow together!

WE NEED YOU!

This is still in the very early stages but I’m looking for those who wish to be a part of making this happen. If you have any interest in being a part of MRUS or supporting it- please leave a comment below.

If you have a particular skill that you could use to contribute, leave a discription in the comments as well. For example: I’m in need of those who have knowledge programing bots!

I know that this is relatively vague right now but I wanted to at least put a bug out there for now and see if I could get the help of some fellow Steemians.

Please comment below with your support!!

Also, if you want to support MRUS- please upvote this post and Resteem. This will help get the word out there and make this happen sooner!!

Thank you all,
@theessential
