I too love the power of the community we are building here and see huge upside.
I have seen people working together and transacting via the blockchain a little and haven't actually dug into Hivelist much or even heard of Open Genie. It really is genius and could take commerce and community to the next level by connecting the talented specialists here.
We have set up @town-crier as the Hive entity of our digital marketing company and have barely started to leverage that. I really should take the time to establish connections there as this community would definitely get the friend&family discount on Marketing and SEO services.
I had no idea that things were that bad in Venezuela and I suppose I can thank the blockchain for bringing it to my attention through you. Encrypted communication may not hold a premium value to me where I live now but I can definitely see the need and power of that for people who are living under challenging regimes.
I say we use these now as well!
Cool to see! just followed @town-crier, looking forward to what you come up with for it.
Awesome!
I am a little embarassed to say I haven't done much with that account this year as I am in sales and growth mode. I have had amazing success on the SEO side of things penning social reviews of our new clients and SEO clients. They love the content, discover Hive, and the SEO was awesome seeing as the post goes up on dozens of websites, which Google used to like.
I have to get my propeller hat on and see if the monumental google shift from ~feb (that punishes duplicate content) negatively impacts SEO. Maybe you have inspired me to get on that now.
Stay tuned and lets be missionaries showing small business how to augment income and attention using Hive. The mechanism is already there. We just need more people leveraging it.
The tech is improving all the time. Did you see INLEO shorts? it's pretty impressive. Let's spread the word to other businesses my friend.
