Basically we are dropping the geeky lingo for a more presentable marketing pitch.
More importantly, geeks are already equipped to find the important details to support the claims of New Steem. That' great because there's no need to exagerate New Steem. A tool like Hivemind is a great example. You can talk all about how Hivemind will power communities without having to mention that it's a non-conensus blockchain interpretor. You don't even have to mention how Hivemind simplifies things for node operators, any more than rack-and-pinion gearsets help automobiles.
A rack-and-pinion gearset is enclosed in a metal tube, with each end of the rack protruding from the tube. A rod, called a tie rod, connects to each end of the rack. The pinion gear is attached to the steering shaft. When you turn the steering wheel, the gear spins, moving the rack.
See? That doesn't help. Ads just mention it and move on.
@organduo got me thinking on his comment back to @elipowell about how best to market NEWSTEEM in a community driven way. He recommended going on a podcast called Bad Crypto Podcast. I figured we should start a list of potential podcasts either of us could go on , or the management of Steemit,inc.
Ideally, we can work with who we have here already on Steem.
Another one who is always here is Crypt0. Crypt0 would you be interested in having @elipowell come on your show?
Once I figure how to embed video here people can get a better idea of the podcast.
So, the idea is to gather all the thoughts and resources of how to promote the idea of NEW STEEM. You can read about it here (BEWARE! longer version with lots of comments! and here (shorter version ).
We wanted to change the thinking we have about he past issues with Steem and start fresh. As you can see within those two posts lays out what WE HAVE DONE and a reason to grab hold of these new ideas and promote them far and wide. Tokenbb allows us to put everything in one area and get this new movement started. We are eager to have you join us on this NEW STEEM ride! Let us know what you want added around this forum and we'll gladly add it. Want to become a moderator let us know! Thanks.

To be honest, I didn't get the point of NEW STEEM? Yes, we want to improve our comunity. Yes, we want to make STEEM better.
But what exactly can I do?
Well, this is what we hope to figure out here. Brainstorm around ideas how to spread the word about (NEW) Steem. Shortly, I'll be posting some ideas around what you just mentioned.
@elipowell appeared and made a post here regarding her thoughts on #NEWSTEEM. Seems to me NEWSTEEM is making its way into the minds of everyone on Steem, and Steem, Inc. top brass.
@krnel was a bit more skeptical in his post . How much different can we make NEWSTEEM from OLD Steem? I think its a good question and a good way to figure out how do we seperate ourselves out. He raises some reasons why we are really NEWSTEEM. Overall, it's a worthy read.
I know that they own steem.com and want to get that set up as a proper portal to the steem blockchain with steem.ninja to open accounts and a live feed with the best of all our apps to entice users. At the moment I can't bring friends to open accounts as it is too complicated and unappealing.
I feel we need to have a portal into the blockchain where we can sent interested people that gives them the best possible introduction and shows us in a positive light. First impressions are hugely important and until we get it sorted I think we are fighting a losing battle.
I agree @niallon11 it is pretty difficult in a way to get people onboarded. I think with INV Invite token we can figure out some ways to make things work.
As for a portal into the blockchain I agree . I'd do more of directory and funnel people to where they might be interested. You bring up all good points!

I think that it's great that we are going to start a concentrated marketing effort to promote the steem eco system.
I would also say that before we do this we need to fix our entry point to steem.
