We talk of how we can get the word of Hive to the world, how we can get more investors to know Hive but truth is, it all lies everyday on the new people coming into hive everyday.
We know how tough it is as a newbie on Hive, how hard it is to navigate through hive and understand what and what not to do. I am sure you do, because you are probably a newbie reading this or were once a newbie.
They help publicise hive, they help bring more people into the chain when they see it is less frustrating and easier to navigate.
One of the easiest way to bring in people in general and mostly investors to the system is through a face to face conversation, and who would do that: those who comes in the community as a newbie and gets to understand how the system works. They spread the word and I call this term: Tell somebody to always tell somebody.
They would be able to defend hive, preach hive and tell any available person they know or meet.
That's why, attention needs to be placed on newbies as well. The system grows as new people comes in everyday but, would they stay if they don't see the reason they joined the platform at the first place?
From reading the post of @pele23, It is our duty as long time Hivers to check and upvote posts of newbies. In this post he stated one true fact
All Newbies are potential dolphins and orcas.
This statement is so true, and the growth of the chain relies on them. I was once a newbie myself and I can remember how hard the struggle was but yet I kept building because @josediccus made me see the worth of doing so and the treasure in Hive. How well are we doing to make them see the treasure in Hive.
I am glad that the OCD team is doing a great job with the onboarder initiative and love-sniper going about helping to support #introductory posts of newbies. I bet, those $20 vote goes a long way to motivate Newbies to start up.
But yet, is the introductory post enough to make them stay. No it is, it isn't. So I probably advices dolphins and orcas to go about supporting more of these newbies out there.
If you are a newbie you should know that earning little on your account for now is normal because you are new to the chain and there are a lot for you to discover.
This post would try to make things easier for you most especially those who feel greatly discouraged. If you follow the following advice then you are good to go and hopefully everything would get easier.
One of the first things I always ask people before I bring them to Hive is, What are your passions?
That's because I portray Hive as Rewards for Passion. Hive is exactly that and even more than that. People are here showing different skills, sharing different contents that they are passionate about. It could be Art, Music, Science, Finance, anything. Hive open doors to all passion
We have communities with different niche and one of them would surely be related to a skill or passion you have.
It would be very easier picking a community in the OCD INCUBATION COMMUNITY or any active communities and be active in it, not just regards posting but being social with others.
Hive is a social network and all you need is to do is be very social. There is saying:
The more we build our network we have with people the more visibility we gain, the more we probability that we would earn more from our posts.
This applies in real life situations too, everybody needs somebody to attain success you just have to keep connecting with people via engagement.
Except from being very social and engaging with other Hivers on Chain, we also have a duty to make as they would bring in more support.
It is your duty as a newbie to build your stake as well. It would not be worthwhile earning an that support without making a plan to grow and give out support to others out there as well.
When I was new here on hive, I maintained a plan. I grew steadily like as I am doing now. Investing the little I earn and building my stake to attain dolphin level.
You don't need to buy in a chunk of Hive before you have a significant growth, it's easily done by delegating part of your earnings towards your growth.
This made me attain dolphin status in less than a year. It was possible for me as a newbie, so would it be for you too if you are dedicated to the process.
