Steemit Success Series - @exyle & “The Grind”
Steemit Success Series - @exyle & “The Grind”
This is part of “Steemit Success Series” where I talk with successful users of Steemit about what they are doing that works. By watching (and studying) these videos you can shave much time off your learning curve with Steemit and achieve the goals you have much faster. Listen to what successful people on Steemit have done and their advice. Sometimes it will be what not to do, other times they share what works in the real world.
In this episode I get the opportunity to talk with @exyle, whose real name is Mark. He’s based just outside Rotterdam in The Netherlands and has been with Steemit almost from the beginning.
Some of the pointers he shares in this video include:
- How he is using Steemit creating posts 7 days a week (!).
- Why he calls creating content “The Grind” and what you can do to create quality content.
- What lies ahead with SMT ( Steemit Media Tokens) and what you need to know
- How to make money on Steemit WITHOUT blogging (worth the price of admission for this alone!)
- The value of community in Steemit
When someone who is very successful tells you how to be successful, you want to pay attention. Mark shares a lot from the heart on his well-respected videos. In this interview you get an opportunity to learn from him directly. He is an amazing man and I was delighted to do the interview with him and get to know this wonderful guy.
Please visit his posts and upvote him. Please Resteem this so others can learn this important features of Steemit.
Thank you very much for your time and attention. I want to make sure that you get a lot of value from these posts so your replies and upvotes communicate strongly to me what you really think and feel. Thank you for being part of my Steemit community. I look forward to getting your feedback.

Steemit - @terrybrock
Great. Thanks!
Thank you for stopping by.
The grind is what it is all about and what it takes to get ahead of others who are not committed to the grind. Get shit done I say :) 7 days posting every day I am right there with ya and it is what it takes along with some SEO skills help.
I am very very curious what is going to come of the SMT here I guess we wait till 2018 from the looks of it?
Thank you so much bitcoinflood! Yes, you and I are in agreement about the need to embrace "the grind" as Mark calls it.
I don't know about what will happen with the SMT but that project looks very interesting and intriguing. I look forward to seeing what will happen. Hope you have a great weekend ahead.

This is really hard platform. I don't know what to do.
Some people say that you need to make comments.
I saw, that someone say that you need make high pile of posts, then people may notice you.
What to do? What is better? Comments VS Posts?
Maybe @exyle become famous here because he INVESTED money?
Balancing between Spam and great content every day?
Making post about "Bitcoin through the roof, 100 000 000 bozilian dollars per bitcoin"?
Hey @doelist to your points
I'd say you want to be doing both. There is a way to do both well, with the same principle.
BRING VALUE
When writing a post, don't think, what should I write that will make me money? Think, what can I write about that I know of that can bring value to others.
When writing comments, don't write comments just to say nice post! Write a comment when you feel like you have something to say that can bring value.
If you just focus on doing things that way, it does not mean you will see and immediate result. Put enough time and effort into doing so and you will see definitive results.
I'm sure you can find a way to do so for yourself and I believe that you are absolutely capable of doing so.
Here's my 100% as motivation to get started with a change.
I hope to see you around.
God Speed Brethren .
Yi agree with u .....keep posting
Thank you, @hamzatanoli. Keep on keeping on, as they say! I agree!
Good advice from your guest.
Now you thinking "How could he have possibly watched a 35 minute video that I just posted?"
Simple...I cheated.
I'm subscribed to your Youtube channel and your video came up in my feed while I was on youtube.
I guess I'm one of the "Bazillions"(as you say. :)) of Steemit users that enjoy your informative posts.
To get through the "grind" I suggest to new users to write about what they are interested in. (They're niche" as you explained.)
The chances are excellent others share those interests.
A good post again from you Mr. Brock.
Tom you are incredible! Thank you for watching the post on my YouTube channel. I like to watch a lot of videos there as I can watch in faster mode (through the gear change).
I really appreciate you watching my videos and then responding. Thank you! Hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead with lots of good coming your way. Let's stay in touch!
I just found your this post and the series that your are conducting @terrybrock, I am very appreciative I did as I just begin my own 'Grind' here on Steemit posting 7 days a week and spending a full time effort in bringing massive value to the Steemit community.
I will definitely be following and learning along with you!
Thank you so much for your contribution to Steemit, it is a world of help to minnows who are desperately filled with energy to make something happen, and simply need a clearer picture of how to go about it.
God Speed Brethren.
Thank you very much, @bitopia. Very nice to have you here and visit.
I love your symbols of Truth, Advancement and Sovereignty. Steemit is a great place to advance those. I am delighted to meet you and look forward to connecting more in the future.
All the best,
Terry
Thank you very much @terrybrock!
I very much appreciate the value that you are bringing to Steemit.
It is for the very reason that Steemit is a platform which has the means of promoting truth, advancement, and soverignty that I am here and all-in with Steemit.
I have written an complete post of the The 3 Bitopian Values if it interests you.
God Speed Brethren.
Terry, thank you once again for giving me this opportunity. You are a great host and interviewer and I'm looking forward meeting you @ SF2.
You betcha' exyle! It was a delight to connect with you for that interview and I look forward to meeting you in person in Lisbon. See you soon!
Interesting post Terry
Thank you. Glad you liked it.
I have so much work ahead of me but guess what.. I've never been more eager and excited in my whole life!!
Thank you very much for sharing this video and for being there for the community.
Thank you very much for your kind post, @andreashauser. I know the feeling of having so much work ahead that we feel swamped! Ugh! However, by staying with it and embracing "the grind" as Mark talked about in the video, we can make it.
Hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead.
Thank you for the encouragement! I'm here to stay :-)
Btw, do you have any good information on the technicalities behind upvoting - or any of that sort?
How can I help you? Upvote is that turquoise caret that is to the left of the $.00 (or whatever amount). You click on it and then can adjust the percentage you want to allocate. It is how people get paid in Steemit for the work they do.
If you have any other questions about that or something else related to Steemit please let me know. I know a little about Steemit and am learning more all the time.
Thanx for your comment, Andrea.
Thank you! This is all new to me.. :-)
Thanks for taking the time to interview him to help all new and upcoming steemians with some advice for how to make their place within the growing community. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your comment @cryptowolf! Glad you like it and yes, I plan to keep doing this. Hey, it is a lot of fun and I love getting such nice comments from people like you. Hope you have a great weekend ahead.
Terry, the grind is indeed the name of the game. No money comes easy and no follower come easy as well. Takes time to get unique and quality content...out but as Mark said...nothing's free and it is hard work. Motivation for the day...haha...go me!
I have to agree with you @mastaz! Thank you so much for what you're saying. All the best to you!
Terry, thanks for taking time interviewing these oeople so that us newbies can follow their examples.
You are most welcome, Rosa. Thank you for your kind words and for all the good work you are doing!
thanks information
You bet! Glad you liked it.
