I don't know about you, but Come for the rewards, Stay for the community just doesn't sound very exciting to me.
It gives me the impression that I'm not going to get what I want.
A more accurate use of this slogan would be Join the community. Get the rewards. That, to me, feels a little more exciting.
But if we're talking about marketing, and there has been quite a bit of talk about marketing around here lately, shouldn't we be using a slogan with more power? Something that captures people's attention and embeds itself in their subconscious? Something that makes people think they have found a product that will improve their lives?
Of course we should.
When I first joined Steemit in August of last year, I thought I had joined a content sharing blogging platform, a place for article and editorial-like content. Now, though, I feel that Steemit is becoming more and more a place where any content has a chance at being appreciated and rewarded: art, music, comics, education, technology, medicine, science, news, hobby, cooking, personal ramblings, etc.
This platform is highly open and customizable. And the more members it has, the more I think it will diversify.
That's why, more and more, I am seeing Steemit as a platform that gives individuals the power to be just that, to be individuals. It rewards them for living their daily lives and, as you all know, it incentivizes them to pursue their hobbies, interests, and dreams.
It rewards YOU for being YOU!
Now that is exciting! And the way Steemit rewards you is pretty unique.
To me, this is Steemit's selling point, and I think it should absolutely be included in Steemit's slogan.
Some of you may say that we don't need just one slogan, and I won't dispute that, there may very well be room for a variety of slogans, especially considering that there are a variety of platforms using Steem in separate and unique geographic regions.
Agreeing on one strong slogan to represent Steemit is very important. Secondary slogans will be great to have too, but to begin with, let's choose one powerful slogan to sell the power of this platform to the masses.
I've thought of five possible ideas here. Two of them have been used elsewhere before but don't appear to be copyrighted. I'm sure all of you have great ideas as well.
In the comments of this post, please tell me which of these slogans appeals to you. Or, if you have a another idea, please post that in the comments as well.
Let's take these slogans to the Steemit marketing team and power this platform up so that we can bring it to the masses!
