Morning Fellow CTP Talkers and Steemians,

*made with canva

Today's blog I am going back to some basics. With everything that has gone on this week I thought it was time. Back to the basics of making some money, affiliate marketing and how I am doing things. Maybe someone can take away a little bit of info from this post to help them. Maybe not but it all works for me.

Everyone that is reading this are already part of Steem (unless you found this post on Google) so your first step is already done. You are already a member of the best social media block change program. Good on ya.

My focus over the last two months has be on increasing my Steem Power (SP). I have been leasing (through Dlease). I currently have 4055.335 SP leased. WOW. A new lease came in over night of about 850 SP. I want to thank @flaxz and the Red Fish Rally people for bringing leasing to my attention. A couple months ago I won a contest that flaxz had (500SP) and I won RR100 for December that gave me 100SP. I started to see that my voting power was worth something. So I did some math. By leasing I am increasing my SP almost by twenty fold. I.E. Spend 25 Steem and get 500 SP. This gives me better voting values and in the long term I am able to earn more.

It is a win win, people that don't have time on Steem make money on leasing their SP and in turn I make more and I can help others with better values in my upvotes.

Then the question becomes, where do I get money (if you have none to spare). How can I do all this for FREE (I have been asked many times). Thanks to @jongolson a few months back he introduced me to the Brave Browser that pays you just for using it with the BAT token. Well I check my Uphold wallet yesterday and had enough BAT that I transferred it to Steem-Engine as Light Coin then bought Steem, then used to to lease 850 SP. All for FREE. Just using the Brace web browser every time I open my laptop and I do not use my laptop much anymore. It is another win win.

Coinbase. This is simple. It is a wallet for your crypto. They have training for different coins/tokens that you can do to earn free crypto that you can exchange and use to buy Steem and SP. You also get money for referring other people. Another win win. By the way all my links for everything I am talking about and recommending will be at the bottom of this post.

Then there is Click Track Profit and CTP Tribe that brought me to Steem. Without them I would not be here. Yes CTP is an affiliate marking program. And I think the best one out there. NO EXCUSES. It can all be done for free. You can earn CTP Tokens from being active on CTP Talk. You know, posting, up voting all that good stuff. Then you can use your free token earnings to buy stuff though Fire Pay. Again you can do all this for no money out of pocket.

I also do contests on Steem when I can. People are always offering up Steem and SP if you win or even 2nd and 3rd places, etc. Like I said above I won RR100 in December and now I am part of RR500 for February. All this is taking from me is some time.

What else do I do? I do a video blog everyday. Thanks to @pixiepost and here 2020 Vision Challenge I do them EVERY day. I have gotten very comfortable with video blogging now and it really helps my earnings.

I have also started regularly using my Actifit and reporting my activity every day.

Remember people, and I cannot say this enough. Besides some time out of your day and some brain power. You can do all this for FREE.

So get working on your business. Get Posting, Get up voting, Get resteeming. Most of all be active here on Steem and CTP Talk everyday. I am the perfect example of how blockchain social media works.
