RE: Steemit gives me hope, I have been working 7 days a week for the past 8 years as a newspaper deliveryman (still is) here's what I do for a living

in #introduceyourself8 years ago

I used to sell the newspapers in grocery stores. That was difficult and I wasn't very motivated by all the nasty, negative comments. But really, my question ..... do people still read the printed newspaper? Long live the Steem!!

Sort:  

They do, and it's a huge business! Here I get news clients every 2-3 days some of them stops but the ratio is going up for my area. At some point ill have to drop an area if it keeps increasing like that. But I believe the newspaper time is about to end in the next 10 years. Most of my customers are old people that arent really into the internet/ The next generations are much more into the internet and social medias which will lead the newspaper industry to go down in my opinion. I already saw a local news paper stop last year and turned over social networks and ad revenue online to advertise their content.
