When I first started and was sort of blocked on what to post, I went back through my Facebook posts and picked a couple that I felt were worthwhile, spruced them up and posted them here. I'm a perfectionist too, but sometimes you just have to get in there and post it. Use the #minnowsunite so those trying to help the minnows can see your posts and other minnows like me can see them as well :)

I also follow the folks involved in the Minnow Support Project and comment thoughtfully on their posts. I write fiction so I spend time in the fiction section upvoting good content and commenting, commenting, commenting. I never, ever ask for an up vote or a follow back, and I always, always try to craft a comment so that it brings value to the discussion and demonstrates that I really read the post.

Three weeks in I have a little over 120 followers. I think most of those come from the Introduceyourself new feed. I don't go spam generic "Welcome, follow me I'll follow you!" but rather I read the post, comment in a way that makes it clear I read the post and give a personalized tip from one noob to another, like maybe they only used the IY tag but they posted beautiful photographs and mentioned they will be sharing photography here, so I advise that they can edit to add "photography" as a tag.

I've sent you 15 SBD because either I don't have the ability yet to transfer steem power directly or I don't have the knowhow. But you should be able to power up if you aren't totes broke yet ;)

Best of luck!
