Hey @mazzle, thanks for watching. This was one of our favorites yet! We started Tangerine Travels about 4 months ago and one of our primary goals with it is to grow Steem, so that's absolutely at the forefront of our minds.

We're doing some things already to grow Steem:

• We're delegating 30,000 Steem Power, free of charge, to help grow the Nigerian and Myanmar communities
• We send over 1,000 non-steemians to Steemit every week, by sharing our Steemit posts in niche Facebook groups (it's more difficult to know the exact numbers these days now that Steemit doesn't have a view counter, but it used to be a few thousand per week)
• We've had a couple of videos dedicated to showcasing Steem (when talking about how we make money while traveling)

If you read our earlier posts, both on here and on my personal @shenanigator account, you'll find a few where we talk about our plan to grow Steem. We talked about how we first need to build a stage from which we can promote it.

We're at a little over 8,000 subs now and socialblade predicts that we'll hit 100,000 in about 7 months (using a regression formula). Assuming we keep doing what we're doing, and YouTube keeps promoting our channel, in less than a year our audience (to whom we can promote Steem) will be more than 10x the current size. With that said, YouTube likes what we're doing, and they're promoting our channel like crazy on their website, so we don't want to switch too much stuff up.

On most videos (but not sponsored videos), we could probably start asking people to join us on Steem. But we do have to be very careful with it and make sure that we're doing it in a way that doesn't mess up our audience retention numbers. Because if a lot of people start clicking out of our videos, audience retention goes down, and YouTube will stop promoting that video.
