Introduction
Steemit is one of the fastest growing open source project that has been given a new dimension to our daily activities on social media and leaves us satisfied with tangible rewards. Steemit sees to it that creativity and novelty is rewarded. Nonetheless, it is rather fascinating that only a handfull of persons know about Steemit despite its fast-growing tendencies , particularly in Nigeria and the African continent. I was introduced to Steemit in December, 2017, and by January 2018, I became an active user of the platform since. Having enjoined the benefits of this platform, I decided to publicize Steemit and really sensitize people on what is going on, especially in my Nigeria. I have been able to introduce the platform to over 30 persons I've met physically and otherwise including family and friends. Not with great precision though, but I've actually reached out to 35 persons one-on-one based on this subject. With the zeal to reach out to more people I decided to engage in active online social media promotions. The aim is not just for them to come and get rewarded. Steemit as I've duly noticed enhances mental growth, as users will have to diligently take time to study, make research and make posts if they are to make anything out their time spent on steemit.
Audience
The audience for this promotion was people living in Nigeria which consists of 36 states. The individuals I wanted to reach out to were those within the ages 17-65 years and I made no restrictions to gender.
Activity
In a bid to reach out to a much larger audience, I used my page on Facebook which I created to promote various open source projects of which steemit is one. The page title is "Open Source Resolute". On this page, I made a post introducing and explaining Steemit to my target audience.
This is the link to my promotion in which I reached out to the entire populace of Nigeria.

Results
For this particular promotion I was able to reach over 5,000 people and had over 2,000 reactions after 2 days of boosting and this result was achieved with one boost.
OUTLINE OF RESULTS
From the boost I was able to reach a total of 5,264 people and had 2,753 engagements.
From the total people reached on the first boost. Results showed that more men were reached than women especially within the ages 18-24yrs.
In total the boost reached 65.5% men while the total percentage of women reached was 34.5%
Total Amount spent for the first boost was over #5,000 which is an equivalent of $14USD.
About $14USD was budgeted for this promotion and an approximated total $14USD was spent.
Analysis from the results of the boost will suggest that, youths are more keen to joining steemit, especially the male folks.
