Yesterday night I was in the art chat channel and I discovered a great illustrator, who recently subscribed on Steemit and did just one post with 0.01 earnings.
So, without hesitation, after checking his post and seeing he was really great, I decided to make him successful quick (I already knew he had a great potential!)
I asked him to certify his works and to create his first introduceyourself post (which he still didn't).
He did it quite fast, so I showed him all the chat channels where he could promote it.I put a link to his post in the robinhood-links chat channel, then went to the steemprentice channel and invited him there.
Results of Mentoring
- After less than one hour, he was already featured for the Robin Hood Whale project!
- After some hours he had his older post upvoted and earned more than 450$ on it!
- His introduceyourself post also earned 12$ (until now).
Sometimes you need more Tools to check your situation
Funny thing is that he was not checking his first post, so he still thought that he was earning like 2 $ total.
So I told him about the steemstats.com website to check all his post in realtime and he discovered the other post's success!
About the Artist
You can check his introductory post and tell me what you think about his art.
I think he really deserves success here on Steemit!

I want to say Thank You to these people!
- I have to thank first of all @robinhoodwhale for his great service to the Steemit community. I was also featured by RWH yesterday and I think it's a great initiative.
- I also have to thank @sykochica and @virtualgrowth and all the other folks helping new users with the #steemprentice project
- A big thank you also to @webdeals who helped me to learn more about the Steemit ecosystem and chat channels I didn't know
Conclusions
Mentoring new users, specially artists, is somehow a karmic mission. Being an artist myself, I know how hard can be to make a living with that, how many frustrations and difficulties can be found.
Additionally, Arts helps to make the world better, unleashes our own creativity and inspiration, contributes to the global beauty and creativity.
Finally, it's just fun to see what you can do for others and how may be easy, as more experienced Steemian, to make them gain the deserved success!
