There are countless communities on Hive, and many of them use the old - but proven - strategy of organizing weekly or monthly contests to encourage their members to participate on a write-up topic or to engage with the community in a certain way.
These communities are usually run by community members who stepped up and created it to be the home of topics they love, and want more people to join in and share that passion with like minded people. One thing that most of the communities on Hive lacks is support for the contest they organize, not because there's a lack of support from the community, but because most of the times the prizes come out of their own pocket or from wealthy members of said community - or some times, from witnesses or popular Hivers.
There are some contests that have a ton of prizes for those who join, but these are rare and they have been part of the Hive ecosystem for a while now and have established a name for themselves, which has brought them that much needed support to run their contests for months or even years without issue.
Leo Finance wants to support the smaller communities who are struggling to maintain an attractive prize pool week after week in order to bring some eyes and attention towards their community or initiatives, and we want to do it as soon as possible!
The deal:
Please write down in the comment section what community are you part of, drop a link to the most recent contest your community has done - you don't necessarily have to moderate or admin the community, you could be only a member, but it would be great if you're a mod - and drop your discord (or the mod's) discord tag so I can get in touch with you! We'll coordinate on discord to see how can we aid your community to increase your contest's prize pool, and hopefully this will help your community membership and interaction grow!
Please, if you are able to, reblog this post so it reaches more communities! The more, the better, having several sponsorship won't stop Leo from helping out your community, so don't worry about the competition, cause there is none :)
