Great post, it's true that there is still a lot of potential on the other side :-). Let's bring affiliate marketing to Hive... lol

Right.  Thanks for posting this.  Fire-pay is the only one I have.  I maybe slow but am getting it.  I even was able to get keys to work on hive.  after going through and making sure I got them right.  I do like your programs.  and I am also collecting bitcoin stuff.   going to promote and tweet.

Big works jon ... Keep going 👌💪 congrats to winner.

We need to push push push ctptoken to the world.

You are not alone with the bruising lol
It hurts but like anything else in life that kicks us to bring down, only a few are brave and strong enough to get back to the horse...
And we have unicorns!!
As you said, we learn as we go...
We are on this together and together we will grow and be better!
We got this 💪
Swarm Unite!!

Oh Jon I don't know what to say ....

As always, your posts are very good and effective and you have highlighted all the benefits that CTP and Firepay have and those who are not active in the CTP Plan do not know what they are losing.

I myself was a pretty unknown owner until I started actively using CTP and best of all is that no one is watching who or what you are, everyone is helping everyone.

From the beginning I was more reserved and I didn't get involved in the conversations much, but that changes from day to day because you motivate me to want to do more.

Thanks

Well written Jon, and yeah we might have to get a bit better at informing Hivers about CTP and Firepay lol, I have made some strides for that with the #IAmAliveChallenge and the I Am Alive ebook, but having more info in some pages in the CTPtalk condenser might be good, keep up your great work.

Maybe this review is a good wake up call after all. ;)

Kudos to @elizabetamt, that's not easy.

I really like the CTP tribe because of the people and the energy. 

I'm not really into affiliate marketing, so I don't think I can contribute to the field. I've tried StartLearning.today and ClickTrackProfit very briefly just to get a taste for it and satisfy my curiosity. 

Marketing in general, I think we all need to learn about, even just a little. If you create content online you are a marketer, even if you don't realize it.

So I guess what I'm learning from all of you is the consistency, the content creation, the community building. These are all very valuable.

This is a fantastic post, Jon! It's written perfectly and you do a wonderful job explaining it. 

Ego's get bruised. Then they heal. And knowing you guys, you'll only become stronger. Like we said earlier, if anything it's good to have an outside perspective come in and point out the gaps. It's the only way to get better!

CTP token has real use case. The trick is just getting everyone else to see it and posts like this, conversations like the ones that were had today, that's how it's done.

Keep it up!

Let's grow together!!!

Love this 

Nice re-cap of the CTP token usage and real use-case that it has... And definitely, there is a need to talk about it more... 

Btw, @maddogmike has done a great review/tutorial of the CTP website (not CTPTalk)... If someone is interested, it's here https://ctptalk.com/hive-196037/@maddogmike/l6on9bruv52

Cheers

Great post Jon and a great opportunity to really promote the use case for CTP Tokens

I for one as a business owner, went through quite a lull when paypal decided to steal my funds and prevent my sites from doing business with them.

Since the demise of Paypal and other payment processors not being an option for many people all over the world, it was struggle, but I kept my business afloat for 12 months on earning received prior to that.

Jumping into the crypto market and accepting crypto payments was a great boost to my business, that's is sales and purchases, however was still tricky getting coin payment options etc happening and some people just could not get their heads around it.

Hive and subsequently CTP Talk came along , and the Fire-Pay -
Fire Pay allowed us as business owners to have an integrated system to accept payments and make payments using coin payments and as an added bonus, CTP Tokens.

Now this became a fantastic opportunity because as members of CTP talk, we are earning CTP Tokens just for taking part in the community, engaging everyday and connecting with people.

Just for writing blog posts, commenting on Blog Posts and Liking Blog posts we are earning CTP Tokens, and we can use those Tokens to increase our Business budgets because through Fire-Pay we can directly make purchases and sales using CTP Tokens.
This became a big bonus for all Internet Marketers, Business owners Online and Offline, because now all they have to do is write blog posts and they increase their business budget without having to outlay a single cent.

Every business needs advertising, every business needs promoting, every business needs customers, every business needs engagement.

What better way to do it than to promote your profile by being ever present and increase your business capacity.

As a business owner that wants to promote and wants to make sales. This opportunity has been an absolute Boon, and I for one will always herald new opportunities to engage and create greater networks as a way of connecting and engaging.

Great post Jon. All the reasons I made sure to get in on the relaunch last year. CTP/CTPTalk/Hive is "the greatest thing since sliced bread" especially for the new, lost, confused, unsure, (and the list goes on) marketer who wants to get their foot in the door and start earning some money.
