Hey Thank you for real feedback. I appreciate it. As stated in the post, I wanted to test how it resonated with people, I am not seeking blind approval.

The #newsteem post received 540 comments and engagement is still going on. That is a marketing win even though I know many probably don't like it. (which is true with nearly anything)

This one on the other hand, while it gets some direct approval and disapproval, isn't creating near the feedback so not as powerful I would say.

Thank you for your thoughtful reply and honesty. That's rare and appreciated.

I agree, real feedback is great.

It seems I'm the only one here who don't like this slogan. "the pulse of Crypto!" doesn't describe Steem well.

It's true that it doesn't currently describe Steem very well. But I want it to. Sometimes a slogan is more optimistic before it's popular.

E.g.:

Capital One – "What’s in your wallet?" When that slogan was created, I bet someone in marketing pointed out that the answer was "Not Capital One."
Grey Poupon – "Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?" How pretentious. What kind of snob would buy that?
Hallmark – "When you care enough to send the very best" But it's also literally the least you can do.
Kay Jewelers – "Every kiss begins with Kay" The slogan that only works on the radio.
Smucker’s – "With a name like Smucker’s, it has to be good" Come on. They weren't even trying.

I did up a post ages ago with STEEM the people's blockchain or STEEM the gateway to cryptocurrency. I think STEEM can be a learning curve for normal people to get into the crypto world and learn new things. Wouldn't be a fan of the pulse either.
