Ok so I'm not sure where I read it or if its true but someone once told me a stat on people staying for over a year with an insurance company. If they have 1 policy only 30% of people will stay, 2 policies 50% and 3 policies a wopping 90% of people will stay for over a year. Why? Well one of the reasons is you are heavily invested, even if one product is not hitting the mark the other two will keep you (yes also the effort to switch but I'm using this to make a point !).
So at HIVE we should be trying to get people invested in multiple communities to keep engagement up and retain as many people as possible, assuming we want to grow. The problem as I can see it, 2 months in so take it with a grain of salt, is that tribes and communities are heavily siloed. This is for a good reason, we want people to be able to follow a passion subject and enjoy it with others. However personally I have found the barrier to entry can be pretty high, both because curating require alot of community tokens and because I don't always know the rules and etiquette of community.
So on to the proposal, we do an exchange program!
- We swap equal delegations with someone from a different tribe, how we decided equal I will leave to smarter people but maybe base it on either HIVE value or curation rewards
- Just like a student exchange program for a month, we don't just drop people into a new community! We would expect a nice introduction post from the community leads
- The people swapping delegation are to act as guides on their own community, informing them on what they could post about, formatting, the do and do not ect...
The hope is after a month we swap back, but with a greater understanding of the community, some tribe tokens and a wider circle of friends!
Maybe the @proofofbrain fund could double the delegation from the POB end to make it more attractive?
