As we just past our 1 year mark for the Curation Contest I wanted to look at our next milestone, the 1 year anniversary of this account. In case you don't know the Pay It Forward Curation Contest started on my personal blog a year ago (@thedarkhorse). If you would like some history of the contest you can read It's official, We Are a Minnow! Looking Back.
Goal #1 - SP Growth
Was looking at our growth and where I felt would be a realistic goal it became very obvious that 1,000 SP is fully in our grasp. This will likely happen with our normal posting schedule along with maybe 1 extra post a week...it will be close but I fully expect that it can happen.
Goal #2 - SBI Shares
The next goal might take a little extra effort, but I'm committed to making it happen. I want to get @pifc up to 500 SBI (@steembasicincome) shares by June 14th. We currently have 312 SBI Shares 320 SBI Shares and will need to add an extra 188 Shares 180 Shares (Just purchased another 8 shares to make it round numbers) to make this happen in a matter of 2 months. This is about 3 shares per day needed to reach our goal.
Here is my offer to those who are interested in growing your SBI shares and helping @pifc grow theirs. Anyone who purchases SBI shares for @pifc will get an equal number of 100% upvotes from my personal account. This isn't going to cover the cost of the shares, but will help offset some of the cost plus you will still have your SBI shares for long term growth.
- Example: You Purchase 10 SBI Shares for @pifc. I will give you 10 upvotes at 100% power with a current value of around 9.0c.
I will cast the votes in order of who bought shares to keep life simple and will vote on comments or posts and commit a large part of my VP towards rewarding those who buy @pifc SBI Shares. If all 180 shares get purchased right away this will take me around 25-30 days to get everyone their votes but you will get them.
Goal #3 - Increased Voting Power
With our leases and owned SP, plus a number of free delegations from some very generous people we are currently sitting at 8,589.1590 SP for total Voting Power. I'd like to get this up to 10,000 SP by our anniversary. With our account growth we will be sitting around 8,800 SP if we reach our Owned SP goal and there are no other changes.
Once I've covered all of the Votes I will give out for SBI share purchases I will personally add another 100-200sp to the account. This will leave us with a need to cover about 1,000 more SP. This likely can be covered by leases, but will have a better idea of this once we get closer.
Weekly Updates
My thought is to give a weekly update post about the progress until our 1 year anniversary so everyone knows where we stand on each of the Goals. Hope to do these on Thursday or Friday so the first update will be less then a week away.
Feedback Please!
We are always looking for feedback so please let us know what you think of our Goals, Our Weekly events (Curation Contest or Pimp Your Post), Ideas you might have for more contests....anything that is relevant to @pifc.
Thank you all for your continued support!!!
