Steemprentice Mentoring Initiative Report 9/13/2016
Steemprentice has been active for about a week now and is running smoothly. The #steemprentice channel in steemit.chat now has 71 members and we've been able to track at least 18 unique people that have recieved some form of help on topics including writing style, wording (especially for non-native English speakers,) topic choices, headline and thumbnail image selection, tag selection, and networking suggestions.
Steemprentice Spreadsheet
I am very proud to annouce that the Steemprentice FAQ and Tips has also been built up (looking at it as a never ending work in progress.) The document can recieve comments so feel free to mention if something should be changed and/or added. [Thank you to @pfunk for the majority of the Do's and Dont's section.]
Steemprentice FAQ and TIPS
I'm excited that at least 6 people who have received help have gotten payouts higher than they had been getting prior to joining Steemprentice. Personally I give the credit on these 'wins' to the authors themselves. Regardless of payout their posts have improved on multiple levels in just the last week. A couple days ago @zionuziriel received the first 2 SD progress award from Steemprentice for showing marked progress in her posts but is yet to have that one that 'pops.'
We've had some member put out their own posts on the group that is greatly appreciated. The most recent I've seen is the Steemprentice Spotlight by @virtualgrowth who has also worked up a logo for the group.
Right now our biggest limitation is exposure for the group. If you run across new users to Steemit or those that seem frustrated, please direct them to the #steemprentice channel in steemit.chat. Many don't know that they have an easy place to go for help. We have users in differing time zones so the channel can be monitored frequently. I've still got 8 more finders fee awards available and have been able to give out 2 finders fee awards (1 SD each) to @andrew0 and @zionuziriel for bringing new people in need of some help into the group.
I wanted to give a Massive thanks to other active mentors; @kryptik, @gonzo, @ines-f, @justtryme90, @virtualgrowth, @jtstreetman and @ziogio. This would never be happening without all the groups efforts. (Sorry if I've missed anyone, just throw something at me in the chat room. Lol)
In closing, when you feel like your not making it, or jealous of others successes...
Don't get angry...get MOTIVATED!
Keep Smiling and Steem On! :D
