Are you guilty of waking up in the morning and grabbing your phone to open your social media channel of choice, be it Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or LinkedIn? And what is the first thing you check?
Yep, how many likes your last post got. Did anyone share it? Did I get any more followers?
You go to great lengths to find content you think will do the trick to get more likes and followers. If you had a mechanism that kept track of the energy, let alone the time you take to create this content you’d wonder why you aren’t getting compensated for an outpouring of effort of that caliber. After all, you’ve searched for great posts to curate, looked for the best spots to take photos, edited the photos, written posts, rewritten the post so it’s perfect. Then re-touched the photo so it’s perfect. Even Instagram takes copywriting effort to post, it’s not just about the blog post anymore.
It’s all A LOT of effort. All for what?
How many likes and followers you can get. But you’ve got some traction on your favorite social media account going and at the very least it feels good.
Until the morning you wake up to check the stats and see your account is gone. Some message about your content violating the terms and service. Just like that. Poof, gone. All that work, for nothing.
But wait, what did you get for doing all that to start with? And what if there was a way to do all of that and actually do it within an ecosystem that rewards you for your efforts either in getting access to applications that make your work and personal life a whole lot easier or it actually added to your education in an area you want to succeed in. Even better, what if those rewards could turn into compensation you could save for your future, or cash in at will?
Tokenization Instead of Likes
First, what is tokenization?
Tokenizing social media or a business model is introducing an internal currency (known as a token) to support the activities within the community or business model. The tokens are built on top of an existing blockchain platform such as Ethereum.
Yes, the introduction of blockchain has hit the mainstream and with it you’ll find more and more companies operating in some fashion using this technology and this new way to provide commerce opportunities to individuals and businesses alike.
When it’s introduced as blockchain or cryptocurrency many start shaking their heads. Wondering if this could be real or not. I mean the thought that you could join a community that is creating a currency to be used within its own community and that you could trade to get things even outside of the community is a little out there wouldn’t you say?
When one considers that fact that some of the most common companies we use in the mainstream have already created a tokenized business model, it becomes much closer to a reality you can sign up for today.
Take for instance American Express. How many people do you know that put things on an American Express card to “get the points”? They then use those points to get things like flights or whatever product they want straight off of Amazon.
Take a yoga class lately with a company called Yoga Six? You get an email or text to your phone right after you completed the class. “You earned 5 points”. Yes, you can apply it to more classes or you could gather more to get some new gear. In essence a token, that can only be spent internally.
These are examples of how tokenization creates an internal value and it should prompt you to learn the facts about blockchain and cryptocurrency. Finding an ecosystem that rewards you for all that energy you’ve been spending to get likes and followers, should be high on your priority list if you want to figure a way to get ahead in the coming years.
Peerion
Remember the example above where you got up one morning and the likes and followers you’d worked so hard to gain were suddenly gone? Censored. Wiped out just like that. And all those points you earned with American Express, there were a lot of fees and interest involved to “earn” that reward right?
Imagine a decentralized ecosystem. One where you never had to worry about the censorship of your products or services. One where there was no middle man to take their cut of the rewards you worked so hard to achieve.
Imagine if you actually got tipped for your content. And then you could take those tips and either get something you wanted, or build your tokenized coffers to real wealth. Yes, the Peerion ecosystem provides all of that.
The ability to do ecommerce, to build non profits and have the funds go where they are supposed to go and to literally turn likes and followers into profits you collect off your own usage, instead of the central platform like Facebook taking it all. Imagine watching ads or taking surveys and getting tipped based on your interests and no user data is collected and used unless you gave specific permission.
So what happens when likes turn to tokens? Go join us on Peerion and find out. You can build your whole ecosystem from Seedling to Tree. There’s educational platforms in several different forms for you to learn how to get involved. You can find them all at Peerion.io
Join the movement. Build your own ecosystem and turn your likes to tokens!
