I think that getting new buyers is even harder when getting new users. I have recommended Hive to a few people. I thought if they will not like it here they will just leave with no harm done. But I fear that if I will convince someone to buy and Hive will not work out I will be the one to blame. And more importantly that I will blame myself.

One of the people who I tried inviting to Hive at that point claimed that her time is more valuable then rewards she would get here. Few days ago on facebook she made a post about lacking the funds to buy food. I can't stop thinking that she would likely not gotten to such situation if she had acepted my invitation to join Hive in the past. Would she become rich from writting on Hive? probably not. But would she at least have enough money to buy some food?most likely. Also she knows many people and her posts on facebook are being seen and read by a lot of people. So maybe she would have attracted more users or even buyers here. But I could not convince her to join. Shame.
