Truth be told, although I have successfully converted someone to be a Stacker, I have never extolled the virtues of SN to my social circle in real life. If you ask me how I get my referrals then, I can share candidly that I post my articles on Publish0x. My referrals are most likely people who are already interested in Bitcoin.
I have previously written detailed guides on how to succeed on SN. But I realise I have been going about this the wrong way. I realise from reading other Stackers’ experiences that their friends don’t want to join us because:
-
Why pay for information on SN when you can Goggle and get it for free?
-
Why hustle and type so much to get some petty sats for your comments?
My posts, although well-intentioned, are too verbose. I need to put myself in the shoes of non-Stackers and find an angle that they can relate to.
So, this is what I posted on my Facebook tonight:
Why give FB or IG a chance to profit from your post n photo when you can gain some sats for doing the same thing on Stacker News? Look at how I got 143 sats for just sharing my day on Stacker News. Not bad for a minute’s worth of work! Accumulate these sats and you can soon buy GrabFood n NTUC vouchers from Bitrefill. With Bitcoin pumping like crazy these days, you want to monetise your content in the least painful way possible!

I paired it with a screenshot of the account I posted on the Saloon just now.
I think my method might just work. Because I appeal to their existing habit of posting their stuff online, it is just a matter of switching platforms from big tech companies to Stacker News. Will update everyone when I get new referrals haha.
