Email to Steemit,inc in relations to developing a coordinated marketing strategy with the Steem community

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)


Hi,

I have a question related to the distribution of marketing material created for promotion of Steem blockchain and SMTs.
As a part of the community for a long time now, i have noticed many steem users showing an incredible amount of interest in promoting steem externally.
Due to a lack of knowledge and know-how those attempts are lacking in many aspects.
I would appeal to Steemit,inc to help create a marketing strategy for those individuals simply by sharing relevant information and a basic template of your marketing strategy that will allow the community to spread information in a positive way outwards about the blockchain and the incoming SMTs.

I am of the opinion that Steemit,inc is not taking whole advantage of the strength that Steem holds. And that strength comes from the simple fact that you have tens of thousands of willing and eager individuals that are ready to spread the word. Individuals that are by trade on the blockchain mostly writers.
Utilizing that strength is a must which is why i would ask you to share, over the @steemitblog,@ned or otherwise, your summation of the relevant information targeted towards investors that could be spread across the internet even by those that do not have a highly developed understanding of the underlying tech (token distribution, SMT use case examples, economic model, etc.) or have the ability to collect all the statistical information relevant to attracting investors.

As i said above, utilizing the enthusiasm users have for STEEM could potentially create a cascade effect and positive word of mouth that could spread over the internet, if there was a coordinated attempt with quality information being spread in

  1. Long format with relevant investor information
  2. Short format for social media promotion.

This is not an appeal for support by delegation to any currently existing project on Steemit that works on promoting Steem. This is an appeal to provide tools for the general user that maybe does not have a complete understanding of the relevant points needed to promote Steem and SMTs thus avoids to do so, or has little to no success off-blockchain when doing so.

Keep on Steeming.

@val-a, @val-b,

I agree, absolutely - huge opportunities are being missed constantly. The @promo-steem team are making up some ground through hard work, but something from Steemit Inc. is needed now.

Exactly. Not really as a open support to one community project but rather creating a marketing strategy with pointers and tools for the regular user to take advantage of in their attempt to promote steem.

Looks like we have a Social Media/Marketing Manager at Steemit:

Our marketing team has been steadily growing over the past few months. A lot of things in the works now, so stay tuned.

Well, we’re the first “official” marketing team for Steemit Inc., and we’ve only been established over the last few months. But rest assured our community engagement strategy is in the works. :)

I saw that, yes - it's news to me!

You are right. I believe a simple communication toolkit might be very useful for us users to be able to explain how steemit works (steem power, steem dollars, duration etc...). As a new user, it still is a bit confused for me and I can see the use of a simple communication toolkit for a wider adoption of Steemit.

Yes. That is the basic crux of my idea. Wonderful thing about steem is that steemit.inc isnt the one that needs to carry all the burden of promotion. It can utilize the community fairly easily.

I am very much in agreement with this matter which you have told in this post. @PushkarSingh has voted for you.

Great! I think steemians can support the Marketing a lot better.

Our marketing team has a lot in the works and in the backlog. Thanks for your feedback!

No problem... Thank you for reaching out.

Of course :)

Nice mail,

Some of my followers and me also had the idea to look for some external promotion/marketing opportunities to make Steemit grow.

Thank you for your initial steps

Regards
