Would you like to see the creation of a real-world STEEM project that will take the form of a public collaborative workshop and Steemit onboarding hub? Better yet, would you like to receive a portion of all the SBD generated by the blog for that project, for life?
In just under two weeks, we have raised around 1210 of our 2000 STEEM startup goal! 28 wonderful steemians have decided to support our project, and will forever receive weekly dividends from the SBD generated by this account, will you be the next one to join the "Steem House Dream Team"?

Allow us to explain why you should invest in...

First of all... What's a makerspace?

A makerspace is a collaborative workshop where the public can gain access to tools, machines, and software that will unlock their creative potential, and encourage the learning of new skills. Members of the public will be able to pay a monthly fee to use 3d printers, laser cutters, wood lathes, and more! A makerspace also has loads of supplies and materials for creatives to craft, tinker, and create anything they can dream up!

Makerspaces embrace and utilize the

Here's a super quick video by Explee to explain the main ideas behind a makerspace:

So now you have an idea of what a makerspace can be

What makes The Steem House unique?

As you may be able to tell from the name, our makerspace will be "Steem-centric"! Not only will we create a place for people to create, we will empower all of our members to earn money for something they truly enjoy doing! We will create a fountain of value for the Steem Blockchain, while enriching the lives of those in our community, and possibly creating a much needed boost to our local economy! By encouraging our members to do anything they want, and earn money for it, we can empower the next generation of small business owners, and show the world that work doesn't have to feel like work!

Bringing talented individuals to the Blockchain could also create the next generation of decentralized apps and community projects. Lending to the long-term growth of the Steem ecosystem, and doing our part to boost the value of the currency. That helps everyone here, not just those who invest. STEEM has the power to create real change, and we will integrate this amazing platform into every aspect of our business.

Our progress and achievements so far:


The Steem House will start in the basement of this historic school building in our historic downtown district, expanding to fill multiple rooms as our business grows, until we can hopefully turn the entire building into a creativity and entrepreneur factory!

  • We have found a 2000 Sq. ft. space for our makerspace, with an affordable rent that includes utilities.

  • With the money we have already raised, we have enough to move in, and will be signing a lease sometime this week or next!

  • We have met with our local Chamber of Commerce, who loved our ideas and enthusiasm! They also informed us that they have been brainstorming the best way to create a "small business incubator", and were very interested in the "revolutionary social media network" we told them all about!

  • The Steem House LLC is now a registered business in the state of Kentucky! In the coming days, we'll be filing tax paperwork with the IRS to get our FEIN, and purchasing a city business license. From there, we're good to go, and can start legally operating The Steem House!

Return On Investment

If you're reading this, you likely understand how Steemit works. Some of you better than others. We cannot in all good conscience guarantee how long it will take for this investment to pay off, but we can promise that everyone who invests will see a generous return.

Why are we so confident?

If this post hasn't already convinced you that this project will be successful, allow us to convince you even further.

  • The Steem House will never be short on valuable content to publish. With so many creatives under one roof, we will be able to provide rich and regular content, including educational material, event showcases, and more, spanning a vast array of niches and communities, which should prove to gather a sizable audience.

  • The Steem House will create an incredible support network among all our members, and other creatives from all over the Steem ecosystem, generating a steadily growing income for everyone involved.

  • By utilizing every branch of the Steem Blockchain possible, and encouraging others to do so as well, we will create a powerhouse of productivity, leading to tremendous growth for our members, and The Steem House as an entity and business.

Hey investors and funding groups! We know you're out there.

Here are some reasons for you to get involved!

There are many projects being "crowdfunded" here on Steemit by funding projects like @steemraise, @anonymous.donor, and @sndbox, and from investors like @jerrybanfield with his @budgets project. Here's the best reason we think those projects would benefit from helping us hit our goal: The lifelong dividends.

This could be an extra stream of revenue that can be used to fund even more projects! It will certainly start slow, but given time, we believe these dividends could go a long way toward helping boost entrepreneurship and new ideas on the Steem Blockchain. If we have failed to mention any funding groups or project investors here, please make us aware of them so we may attempt to reach out!

We currently need 790 STEEM to complete our goal.

Investments will be taken on a first-come, first-serve basis.

"The early bird gets the worm!"

Transfers sent after we have filled the fund will be returned unless deemed a donation
Investments can be made directly to @thesteemhouse. Please note this in the transfer's memo. (Minimum investment is 10 STEEM/SBD)
Dividends will start being sent out the week after our funding goal has been reached.

I will take 1% of this great initiative :) transfer has been done!

Thank you so much for your support! Welcome to the Dream Team!

I don't have any liquid SBD or Steem at the moment but I'm expecting a few post payouts soon so I'll be in (if there's still some spots left?)

Thanks for the update!
I love that you're progressing so well!
Will all the content be posted by @thesteemhouse or will members have their own individual accounts?

What I particularly like about this project is the economies of scale... not only will people be able to help each other and everyone's knowledge will grow exponentially, but tools and photographic equipment can be shared amongst all the members allowing top quality content.

I'm sure you've thought of it already, but make sure you invest in some good quality photographic lights and backdrops/small light sets to take really great photos to share with the blockchain.

If this goes well... we might see Steem Houses all across the world.
If you need any help with the photographic side, let me know.

All of our members will definitely have their own accounts, but @thesteemhouse will blog about everything that goes on inside, and promote our members and their creations. We will also use the blog to communicate with and announce events to the local community.

Thanks for all of your advice on photography and lighting! We'll definitely be getting as much resources together as we can to provide the very best content we're able to!

What a super idea. Using Steem based crowd funding to get your maker space project going and then pay back the supporters out of your STEEM rewards. I’ll send you 20 STEEM.

Thank you very much for your support. Welcome to the Dream Team!

Way to go! It looks like you've made a lot of progress on steemit in only a short time. Can you be a bit more specific on how the dividends will be calculated once you're finished fundraising?

Good luck as you move forward.

The entire 2000 STEEM fund will buy 10% of the blog. For every 20 STEEM someone invests, they are entitled to 0.1% of the SBD generated by @thesteemhouse, starting the week after the fund is complete.

I just sent my 10 STEEM and 10 SBD investment for the project!! You will see my investment in a total of 2 transactions. Looking forward to seeing this take off and how well it does!! Thanks for the opportunity to be apart of the startup :)

Thank you for your support! Welcome to the Dream Team!

Absolutely! Thank you very much! 😊

I can't remember if I mentioned about pitching the idea to the people over at @steemstem or @steemiteducation as well. Seems like it is all part of trying to promote learning, which is a big part of education and the people that follow these two account could be interested as well :)

I thought about the same thing, even including the #steemstem tag on this one 😁

I think it's great what you're doing. What an inspirational idea. I just invested and I wish you guys the best of luck. It sounds like it will be a load of fun and that it will produce great things in the Steemit community. Resteemed and Promoted!

Thank you so much for your support! Welcome to the Dream Team!

Sending 30 STEEM. Love this idea!
