It's Officially Launched -- The Real Work For Me Has Just Begun!

[lisamgentile1961]

This Process Started a Couple of Months Ago

I was actually a member of the original Pizza Plan and the 2nd version both launched by @jongolson.

The program always made alot of sense to me.

But I was struggling with some limiting beliefs about my ability to own and run an online business myself.

Yeah, I have been on Hive blogging and building that for a few years.

So, long story short, I chose to ignore my doubts.

I went to Jon and Blain and asked them if they'd be willing to sell the Pizza Plan to me to run. Honestly I didn't think I'd get a yes that quickly.
I was happily surprised.

Jon had already gotten a new logo made for it.

And the whole thing was started over with two of the original programs and two new ones. All of them having one thing in common, they're all EVERGREEN products. Four basic, fundamental programs that everyone will always need to build any online business. Any serious online entrepreneur must be willing to invest in themselves and budget for these programs.

This is the best way I could think of to become a program owner. I bought an already established brand with a following and awesome support from the Affilliatech team. Thank you, @jongolson, @blainjones and @elianaicgomes.

Thanks also to everyone in the CTP and Hive communities who are showing their support.I also want to thank @maddogmike for helping me get the markdown coded figured out for adding hyperlinks to my pictures so I could get this post done today.

Now it's my turn to keep this going and make sure that I keep up what has already been started.

On to My Investments and Progress This Week!

I received 24.232 Hive from Blocktrades from my LTC Purchase on Coinbase
After using HivePay Swap to deposit to Swap.Hive on Hive Engine I deposited 24.148 Hive to Swap.Hive.

Started with 2.369 in my Wallet before that and after the deposit and trading some more tokens I ended up with 32.34406975 Swap.Hive to invest in other tokens.

Changed a Little Bit Up and Put Some Skin In My Rising Star Journey

I had been doing only Illegal Busking Missions (got up to 500 of them) and then I hit Level 15 and something new popped up. My Ego jumped to 100%. Yikes.

I had also done a couple of Open Mic Night Missions because I had a bunch of fans. But I had hardly any skills. I heard that I had to gain some skills and to do that I had to take some Music Lessons. It took a few days of running those missions before my ego came all the way down to 0 again.

I used some of my weekly fiat investment and bought some Starbits and then traded them for some assets to move me forward. Bought 16,363 Starbits with 5.11311024 Hive to add to the 5704 Starbits I earned from playing the game.
That gave me a total of 22067 Starbits. And I chose to buy a couple of Energy Booster cards.

Bought a Pizza Box for 7500 Starbits
Bought a Pizza Slice for 10K Starbits

4567 Starbits left to go toward my next purchase.

Now I have to spend some time learning how to use those cards. I joined the Discord for Rising Star so I will be spending some time in there.

Added Some More to My HE-Index Holdings

I used 8,8 Swap.Hive to purchase 16 more Index tokens @ 0.55 Hive each. My new Index Holdings total is 1571 HE-Index.

LISTNERDS Staked on ListNerds
Total as of 5/21: 3178.171

5/22 Claimed and staked: 184.024 (122.955 from solo mail on 5/21 that was verified instantly and paid out. 61.069 earned passively from staked LISTNERDS) New total: 3362.195

5/24 Claimed and staked: 65.923 New total: 3492.903

5/26 Claimed and staked: 196.353 (124.863 from email sent on 5/19 that was verified and paid today and 71.49 earned passively from staked LISTNERDS) New total: 3898.462
5/27 Claimed and staked: 75.464 New total: 3973.926

I used 17.99998 Swap.Hive and Bought 9.068 LISTNERDS @1.985 Hive each and deposited and staked them to bring my new total to: 3982.994
And of course, because it's really not a gamble, I went ahead to the Chances area on ListNerds to try and win another 9.068 LISTNERDS.

I have my choice of 9 Nerds with glasses and a bowties that match. I picked the Nerd with the Gray glasses and bowtie and no luck this time either.

No problem.

I will try again next week probably.

5/28 Claimed and staked: 76.692 New total: 4059.686

Increase of 881.515 LISTNERDS this week. A 27.73% increase from last week to this week.

Congratulations on the Pizza Plan, Lisa. I know that you will be a good owner of a program that so many of us hold dear.

[lisamgentile1961]

Thanks very much, John! There are a ton of moving parts to figure out. I will just keep doing something every day. Even if it's a little something. Yesterday Eliana gave me some hints for how to edit and add a couple of links on the sales page. I tried poking around and figuring it out for a bit. Found something and verified it. And it worked. Have a great day and Happy Memorial Day!😀

Congratulations on your program The Pizza Plan. So many people need to learn more about budgeting so this will be a first step for a lot of them. Great progress in Rising Star and you weekly DCA as well. You are doing great. Keep up the hard work. Take care.

!CTP

[lisamgentile1961]

Thanks very much, David. I appreciate the nice feedback. This is another no excuse kind of program. Understanding that a small budget that is well under 100 dollars a month can get them, should hopefully incentivize people to action. 🤞🤞 And they can use their earnings from content creation and curation on the Hive blockchain. My next step is to figure out how the Pizza Slice and Pizza Box get used. Have a great week.😀
!CTP

[ravenmus1c]

Happy for you!! =) Sorry for asking, but what exactly is the Pizza Plan?

[lisamgentile1961]

Enjoy your day!😀
!CTP

Thanks very much, @ravenmus1c! No problem at all. I appreciate you taking an interest to ask the question. The Pizza Plan introduces 4 Evergreen Programs that are necessary building blocks for people to build an online business. The fundamentals. And the budget will be well under 75 dollars a month. The four programs are: An autoresponder for list building, A tracking program to track your progress. web hosting for your blog (you can of course push your WP blogs out to Hive) and an Educational and Community Hub. It comes with an Ebook that can be given away as a lead magnet for building your list. Thanks again for asking the question. I hope I have explained it well enough.

[ravenmus1c]

Thank you for explaining! Sounds great! I will have a look into it. !PIZZA

You're very welcome, @ravenmus1c! You probably have the link but if you don't just let me know. I will be happy to send it. Have a great day! 😀

!CTP

Hello and Thank you very much for your support and hopping on board, @misslasvegas! It is about using four fundamental evergreen programs to start your business online. A very reasonable monthly budget of just under 75 dollars a month. So I like to think of it as four slices of a Pizza Pie that you put together to build a Business (the pizza).

[successchar]

Congrats on The Pizza Plan launch!

I'm in and my plan is to work it and hopefully help me lay the groundwork for my own business plan.

Question? Can you be an affiliate of Host Gator without using the service, cause I seem to be having issues signing up as an affiliate?

I have heard about the Pizza Plan but what is it exactly? I am still a bit confused about it and I have heard people talking about it. Then again, I might of forgot about how Jon explained it in his videos.

Posted Using LeoFinance ^Beta

[lisamgentile1961]

!CTP

Hello, @jfang003! The way I like to think of it is a pizza with four big 1/4 slices. Each one of them being an evergreen program that you will always need to build your business. A very reasonable starting budget to work with. Does that help? It also represents things that you can sacrifice buying like ordering pizza and buying coffee out and putting that money into those programs for your business budget. Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.😀
