I've been writing blogs for over a decade...And one of my most popular stock pieces of content is what I call the $2.73 A Day Formula...
I've discussed it before on STEEM but thought a refresher might be in order :)
So here's some background on it...
Coming from an online marketing background, we hear the horror stories constantly. A new marketer comes online and hears about making a million bucks in 30 days. There are promises of riches that take little to no effort. And they will start making all this money...Overnight.
It doesn't take long for them to realize, this isn't the case. Far from it...
It takes years to develop an business online and sure there are stories of someone striking gold...The majority of people need time to develop their craft and niche.
Sounds familiar huh? Especially with something like STEEM...We see the trending pages and say to ourselves...I can make HUNDREDS from one blog post? Sign me up!
However that's not the case here either...
But all is not lost!
Enter the $2.73 a day formula!
Quick question...
If you made $2.73 a day from STEEM, how much would you be making a year...
The answer is roughly $1000 a year. (Technically $996.45)
Not bad huh? From a show of hands...Who would like to earn an extra $1000 a year from...Blogging and playing blockchain games? LOL I mean it's a no brainer...But check this out.
What happens if you keep stocking up on that Steem Power? Using dollar cost averaging to grow your position on STEEM and keep producing content daily?
And that $2.73 turns into....$27.39 a day for a year...
Oh boy! Now we're earning almost $10,000 a YEAR from our time here on STEEM...An achievable goal, that we can reach by following something like the Savvy Cycle from SteemSavvy!
- Add Value Daily
- Share STEEM Everywhere
- Power Up Every Chance We Can
So you see...The problem is people want the big bucks overnight! But when we break this down into achievable goals that we can reach...It's something we CAN achieve with hard work and strategic relationships.
Wanna make $100,000 a year? Shoot for $273.97 a day...A million? $2739.70 a day...Obviously this is something that does not happen overnight...So we need to stop thinking about these massive numbers and start at...
$2.73 a Day!
We focus on the daily activities that really start to add up overtime...
How can we build up our STEEM revenue to reach that?
If we're at $1 a day on STEEM, how do we grow to $2.73?
Are we creating content daily?
Engaging with people to grow our followers?
When's the last time you looked at the 5-500-5000 plan?
Let's start with ACHIEVABLE goals today...And learn how we can reach $2.73 everyday with our STEEM account!
Good things will take shape once we start focusing on small, achievable DAILY goals!

Take it slow. Build you SP then you can self upvote and grow exponentially. Or allocate some steem for shares of SBI and slowly grow it that way
Posted using Partiko iOS
great points. sbi is a must for any steem growth plan in my opinion.
Posted using Partiko iOS
In your opinion what do you think is more effective? SBI shares of self upvotes?
Posted using Partiko iOS
well i do both. i never understood the hatred towards self upvoting if one is voting as many as they can in the process.
i self upvote but i also upvote every single engagement people make with me on my blog. as well as share the upvotes with others i follow and engage with.
but sbi is a no brainer. for me, they both are part of my plan.

You have always talked about this & it is so true. It takes baby steps (think Dave Ramsey ;))to build our brands & each other. But when it's consistent & you do a little each day, it can become bigger than life.
Gee, I am not familiar with your teaching at all .... 😂😂🙌🙌

lol appreciate that
and yeah that’s the truth. it starts t snowball because start to recognize you as someone who always ‘shows up’
in their feeds. on their blogs.
just show up and magical things happen.

@pixiepost
Thank you so much!! Have a great day :)

I'm reading your blogs one by one. I don't know how I landed here to your profile, but I really find your writings interesting. This post was really inspiring for me as I'm also working towards the same goal. It's been over one year since I joined the blockchain. Today I'm able to make a minimum of 1$ from my posts consistently. It is definitely not very easy to be persistent and maintain consistency. But, I'm still trying hard with determination.
that’s awesome. thanks for stopping by.
yeah it starts at 1 buck. and then you start to snow ball this into bigger payouts and more engagement. it does take time tho :)
Yes I agree with you.
I hope your imagine amount we get from STEEM soon.
Almost I am in One year in this Platform.
On my first joining STEEM price in hight, now it's price go down.
I hope soon it reach again good position,
What the price let it be, I am really enjoying daily making posts, making Friends. It's enough my some life.
Coming to Earnings, it's follow us.
Thankyou very much for your detailed explanation.
Posted using Partiko Android
yup. exactly. the daily habits we get into. that’s what matters. that’s how you build it :)
Posted using Partiko iOS
Great post Jon. $2.73 a day is definitely achievable. It will take some time and work. Of course if you can buy into larger SP that helps. But even without that if you produce excellent Content and build up a Following anything is possible over time :)
yessir. and it’s a goal everyone can reach i think. doesn’t happen overnight. but staying the course and showing up everyday starts paying off.
Posted using Partiko iOS
That 2.73 usd is not easy to earn somehow. But it can be achieved in the long run. I remember the first time I join steemit where I start from zero to where my SP now. Likewise, I do blogging but earn only 0.03 dollars a day but I keep going on. Perhaps one day I hit the golden egg.
did you check out my 5-500-5000 plan mentioned above. that might help :)
Posted using Partiko iOS
It a great idea @jongolson. As a beginner in steemit, i need coaching on how to get $2.73 a day
Posted using Partiko Android
you should check out @steemsavvy
Posted using Partiko iOS
Small and constant growth is the key, even for the beginners here. I followed your plan and it got me 280+ Steem since August 2018. It's not $2,73 a day, but it will get more when I create more content on the blockchain.
awesome sauce man. love hearing that. oh yeah. some days i do great. other days i don’t even hit the 2.73. but i keep showing up. that’s the trick.
Posted using Partiko iOS
@jongolson as always awesome explanation of the cold reality that all the hype we get wrapped up in when building an online business is simply FALSE!
And you gently clobber us on the head to bring us back to truth. Work daily, set reasonable goals, and probably one of the most important takeaways is connect with a great mentor!
That is what people get when they meet and follow you @jongolson!
Like some lucky people that hit the lottery and win a zillion dollars, there are a few that get lucky the same way working online but as you stated for the rest of us it takes many years of training, development, and unfortunately failure!
I am both lucky and grateful to have met you!😀

appreciate the kind words man. i’m humbled.
but i think it just comes down to i’m stubborn. and won’t give up or quit lol
Posted using Partiko iOS
That's really the way to be! If you feel strongly about something and know in your heart this is what you want to do, then we need to put the blinders on and block negative thoughts and people and keep our eyes on the prize!🤣
Posted using Partiko Android
$2.73 a day... Yes... Baby step... Doable... Just need to be consistent and persistent...
Posted using Partiko Android
yes ma’am. small steps can turn into giant leaps
Posted using Partiko iOS
It's takes time and effort but I'm a big fan of having goals and hitting them. It gives you a reason to push forward and if they are smart goals it can give you motivation as you hit them and move on.
This is a good plan and one thay more people should buy into.
Posted using Partiko Android
appreciate that. and i’ve been using @steemitboard to measure my growth. as long as that SP and engagement numbers are rising. i’m happy lol

That's the best advice all day @jongolson.
One peice at a time and it just grows. Post, comment, upvote and engage with the community.
Posted using Partiko Android
absolutely. simple. but it takes time.
Posted using Partiko iOS
You're right.
I'm around $27 right now.
But it also depends where you live. In Africa, you're a whale at 1000 SP.
for sure. that’s why i think steem is going to have a huge impact globally. it’s exciting to think of the lives that will be changed from this stuff.
Posted using Partiko iOS
Shows how small steps can make large differences when consistency is exercised! The great thing is that the Steem protocol can do it all for us!
Posted using Partiko iOS
yessir. slow steady small steps. it’ll move mountains
Posted using Partiko iOS
Great post. But actually it is someone difficult for a new person to make 2.7$ formula per day. I remember when i first made $1 on my post, it was superexcited for me
I am just happy i joined steemit earlier because the future is bright ahead
absolutely. that’s why it’s so important to keep showing up and engaging. if i know the feeling. that first dollar on a post. it shows you what is possible!
Posted using Partiko iOS
Yes you are right
As you say slow and steady is the way to go.
Posted using Partiko iOS
it works man. building everyday. it really starts to snowball.

You are a model of discipline man. Keep up the great work.

appreciate that man. trying dude. everyday. moving forward :)

Next up on the steem blockchain: “Thank you for commenting on my post. You now owe me two more pushups.”
Posted using Partiko iOS
Very nice represented formula regarding how people can earn everyway throught STEEM blockchain.
Posted using Partiko Android
yeah man. this stuff works. we just need to put in the effort.
Posted using Partiko iOS
One thing is true across all I found on the blockchain technology. With time, patience, some dedication and consistency, value emerges.
And like you said, 2 or 3$ a day may not seem much, but if you compound it, it becomes powerful, plus (and more the kind of thing I am enjoying at the moment) enables you to play with these technologies in a much deeper vertical horizon, which basically is a dream job for engineers/developers and some promoters (don't wanna call it marketing people at this point).
To be honest, I never thought I could invest so much of my time on a technology like this. I have invested a lot on other techs like EOS, and BitShares, but STEEM is still number 1! And for what it looks, will most probably continue to be, unless something very "life-changing" turns my page.
It was nice to discover you @jongolson, didn't knew you (means either that I am not that active, or STEEM is really quite BIG!). Also, I am feeling thrilled about your new project, and I need to spend some time checking if it matches the real work use cases I deal with, on my daily job. And if they do, I am going to reach out for sure.
Cheers and thanks for all the quality work. Top'notch!
appreciate the comments very much. and the connection!
yeah steemsavvy has been my passion for the better part of a year now. i’ve put my all into it but get hung up when it comes to the technical side of things.
my partner and i don’t come from a blockchain background so we are learning as we go and investing our butts into this.
we believe in steem. personally i haven’t been so focused on anything in my life lol
Posted using Partiko iOS
I deeply appreciate people that turn their faces into the UNCOMFORTABLE zone to follow either something they believe in or where their contribution would generate quality value. And then achieve that!
I deal with very smart people every day, and to be considered a sort of GOD Engineer that deals with all sorts of IT stuff and solve their problems as fast as they could imagine, every day, is really an overrated classification (in my end) of what is my daily life work value. Although, it empowers me to do what I really like to do, which has a tremendous value to me: Exploring!
That’s very wise mate - start small and achievable is good advice to content creators!
Loving your motivational and promo efforts man!
Posted using Partiko iOS
appreciated sir. yeah people try to bite off more than they can chew. but if you go slow and steady. you can accomplish anything really.
Posted using Partiko iOS
yes, you are right my friend. We just need to be patience and keep believing on what we desire. We can't rush things if we want to be successful. That's one of a kind idea..I love the writing you have.
Posted using Partiko Android
thanks for the kind words and support. and yup. show up everyday. and it starts to compound. huge tip to grow our accounts here.
Posted using Partiko iOS
Yes I will because I look forward to get my sp bigger without investing because I have nothing to invest. Since I'm still a student and if I earn a little bit it go to my projects.
Posted using Partiko Android
slow and steady man. that’s the best thing about steem. you earn by doing and being active :)
Posted using Partiko iOS
That is the hope
Posted using Partiko Android
yessir. slow and steady!
Posted using Partiko iOS
The important thing is consistent.
absolutely. nothing more important than showing up everyday.
Posted using Partiko iOS
You are right dude. Marking money on internet requires lots of patience and passion.
Thank you sharing your thoughts.
Posted using Partiko Android
appreciate the comments. absolutely. and i think it’s not the news most people wanna hear. it’s not exciting to ‘show up everyday’ but those that do. always win.
Posted using Partiko iOS
Very nice explanation
But how can new Steemitians get 2.73 bucks a day ?
it’s magical. it’s @steemsavvy
Posted using Partiko iOS
@jongolson. The article provide opportunities for the steem community to grow their business. Since the process is a learning curve focusing on small goal could be achievable. However, coaching on the steps on achieving the business goal especially to new steemians are of great help.
