RE: Onboarding the masses - SteemPress updated roadmap and growth strategy

in #steempress5 years ago

Thanks in return for your amazingly kind words, @fredrikaa! 😊

I'm happy to hear the social media following will be a guideline, not a hard & fast rule, because I can definitely see it being an important part of the overall vetting process.

And needless to say (and yet I'm saying it...lol) the idea of direct signup codes for trusted referrers sounds wicked awesomesauce!

I agree with your concern on this, @traciyork. This is all so awesome! But that metric does seem extreme for vetting people. I'm glad it's a guideline, @fredrikaa, and the trusted referrer method is a great idea. I recommend 1k or 2k as a starting point, though.

It's just a matter of how we will prioritize giving away a free Steem account + delegating Steem Power. As I'm sure you know, those things are not free, so we don't want it to get abused, and also prioritize where it has the most impact. But as I said, it's a guideline and one of the metrics we'll look at.

Anyone who are interested in joining Steem can of course still get hold of an account through other means like on steemit.com and then still use steempress afterwards.

That makes sense, @fredrikaa. Thank you for the additional info. This is all so cool. Great developments!!

Thanks for the feedback, @jayna! 😊

Happy to get recommendations by people on who would make wicked awesomesauce-referrers ;). Also, would it be beneficial to have a Discord server, forum, or post dedicated to sharing marketing material, invitation letters, and other tips and tricks for the community to use to be the best referrers they can be? I'm thinking that we all win if Steem grows!

I completely agree that we all win, but I'm gonna say "when" Steem grows, not "if." 😊

I think a new channel in the existing SteemPress Discord server specifically for referrers would be an excellent idea. It could be a closed channel accessible only by people you've promoted to the role of Referrer, so everyone there would be on the same page.

Also, you replied to @amico and said -

Would love to hear suggestions from the userbase of who they believe could be amazing Steem ambassadors and referrers.

I think, when you're ready to do so, this would be a great subject for a Steem post, so everyone in the community can recommend people. I'm sure you'd get a good number of names to start off with. In fact, I already have a few names in mind... 😎
