A new invite-only social network dubbed Tsu aims to solve the problem by paying users for actively posting on the platform as well as inviting their friends to join the network. In this article, we will discuss Tsu’s business model, features, and more.
What Tsu claims
Tsu’s philosophy is simple: users, or content generators, should be rewarded for their content. The startup claims it keeps only a ten percent cut of the advertisement revenue generated from a post in a given twenty-four-hour period, and passes the remaining ninety percent to users. From this amount, fifty percent goes to the owner of the content, while the remaining fifty percent is distributed using the “rule of infinite thirds.” The person who recruited the content owner gets one-third, the one who recruited that person gets one-ninth, and so on.
Obviously, you’ll need to have a good number of followers and your posts need to be engaging in order to earn better. You also get paid when someone you invited actually joins Tsu. An important point worth noting is that Tsu also pays you for content hosted on other platforms. For example, if you already monetize your videos on Youtube, you can share them on Tsu and earn more. Once the accumulated amount in your Tsu account hits the $100 mark, you can cash it out.
Aside from earning from your content, Tsu also lets you control and build your social network, something which you can do by passing around your personal shortcode to the ones you want to invite to the platform who can then follow you. This makes Tsu an invite only platform, although it isn’t hard to get on-board, as you’ll see a lot of Tsu members sharing their personal shortcodes online in a bid to attract more followers (if you want to register, you can use my shortcode: http://www.tsu.co/viralpx)
