Boobs vs minnows. Don’t be angry on STEEMIT if you think only about $.

@metrox is genius

I’m not a whale or dolphin, even not a fish, I’m minnow like most of you. I had decided to write this short article after so many flags on @brendazambrano intro post.

First of all, its for people envy1 & envy2 (guys, you are doing wonderful staff anyway) , who don’t understand or don’t want understand why some posts get so many votes and money, only for boobs and 100 words of text.

Not a girl, not yet a woman...

Obvious, most of you missed this wonderful article about whales votes.

STEEMIT is a young project, which only in the beginning of his way. It has already attracted many people and growing day by day, but still not enough strong for a long existence.

how @johnsmith said:

but right now it needs to scale as rapidly as possible to survive.

STEEMIT is business, and please don’t’ forget about it. Like in all businesses important thing is investment for growth, and STEEMIT must to attract these investments. We are these investors with assets (money, art, time, experience...) which helps not to disappear to this place!* Thats why @brendazambrano has got so many votes from whales. Think about it as advertising costs. Million people will know about this place, and bring new assets.

*Why do you thing almost all of tech posts get good money? Because they are helping to develop and growing STEEMIT from inside.

Ok, you can object:

give me 12.000$, and i'll tell every dog in my city about STEEMIT.

It doesn't work like that. Not because you don't have a boobs, only because you are the expenditures with high risk. Can you give some guarantee of effective marketing? Not now, when you want get only money from your posts without helping STEEMIT to develop. Can you become a voice of steemit in real life, for his growing with your cooking or painting posts? As i thought...

Make something useful first. Like those guys which made stickers with logo, drive their car and tell about STEEMIT to all passers in a town (can't find their post, sry), and they have got 3000$ from users, it was their first post here. Only after this you can compare yourself with boobs girl, and scream about injustice.

But @brendazambrano didn't do anything fore STEEMIT you say. She has just came and got huge money for retwit and shot with a the paper, without any hard work like those guys. You are wrong, she has brought results of her achievements from real world, that she had made before STEEMIT (more than 1 million followers). And you can't say that it was easy to her became a playboy model, you don't know it.

Why you didn't downvote @dollarvigilante in the same time as @brendazambrano? He had used in his intro even less words than @brendazambrano... Just because you are respect his way in life more?They are diferent people with the same value for STEEMIT- attracting more people to us, only from different areas.

One more example: @federicopistono Why do you think he has got good money from intro? Because whales had saw a good potential, that he can make a good company to attract, and they weren't wrong.

Conclusion.

After my words, please don't think that you can't take something from STEEMIT without having big weight in some communities in real life, or because you don't have money for promotion project. Motto of steem about "take money for your content" its not just an empty words. You can be shure just looking at this users:

@budgetbucketlist, @fyrstikken, @fairytalelife, @celebr1ty, @mibenkito, @opheliafu And many others.

This people are example of opportunities, which this place gives for everyone. STEEMIT needs not only growing, it needs to be stability and have a good content, which makes people stay here for a long time. You just must find your sphere here, don't spend your time on envy, make growth yourself and your skiils with creative, which will help you be sucsessfull on STEEMIT and in the real life.

Coming the day, when your stories will appreciate by many people, so you are must be ready. But now, please don't think negatively towards people, which help STEEMIT to grow. And sorry for my english :-)
