One Day Short of a Week as the New Owner of the Pizza Plan

First Thing I Had to Find

Right after the launch last week, I had to figure out how I was going to handle supporting the Pizza Plan.

I managed to find a support desk solution that will work for me.
Members can send support requests by email and the show up as tickets in my back office there. Yes, it will work. At least for now.

And it fits into my budget.

That is the purpose of the Pizza Plan.

Learning how to plan a budget for your business.

Online or off.

Sent a Couple of Emails From My Back Office

And got a Connection Timeout Error

First I created a list on Trafficwave for Pizza Plan but I still want to send emails out from my admin area too.

Yesterday when I was creating the list on Trafficwave and testing it with the capture page links, I discovered I wasn't getting a confirmation email.

Sent a support message to them and found out they were aware of the problem and were in the process of getting it fixed.

Before I did that I deleted the list and tried creating a new one.

When I still wasn't getting a confirmation email then I sent a support request.

So, after they fixed it I got a bunch of confirmation emails.

Oh well!

Will just delete them.

I Have a Telegram Group for Pizza Plan Members

Will probably use it for curating and re purposing content.

Creating that was pretty simple.

Maybe now that I am learning first hand what a great resource Discord is I may create a server there.

Not right now.

I have other things that need to get taken care of first.

I am very glad that I listened to @blainjones when he told me to spend time learning what was on my Admin site and where everything is.

To be honest I should have spent more time than I did.

I am logging on there everyday now anyway so I will keep learning about how it works.

I know I will make mistakes.

That's fine.

I am happy that I did this.

Because it is pushing my limits.

And I am learning new skills.

After I Close Out This Blog Post

I am going to look further into resolving that connection time out error message I am getting when I send emails from my back office.

First I will check with my hosting service.

It shouldn't be a big deal to get resolved.

I will let you know what happens.

Have a great rest of your day!

I am sure there is a steep learning curve when you become an owner. Best wishes to you! !CTP

There really is, @fiberfrau! I can't imagine having more than one program going at a time. At least no for the foreseeable future. Focusing on not getting overwhelmed. Have a great day and thanks for the tip.😀

Awesome work you are doing. I know there is a lot to learn.
I know you can do it.

Thanks Tom! Appreciate that. There sure is. I am focused on doing something everyday. And just keep moving forward. Enjoy your day. 😀

It sounds like you are definitely getting your feet under you! That is really great to hear. I'll be honest and tell you I don't really know what Pizza Plan is. Something about budgeting it sounds like. I know the CTP community is really excited about it, so that is enough for me to know it is legit! Best of luck! I found this post on Listnerds.

Thanks, @bozz! And thanks for letting me know you found this on ListNerds. Yes, the Pizza Plan was originally created by Jon about how to create a budget for online marketers. It focuses on four Evergreen programs that you will always need in your business. An autoresponder, tracking software, webhosting, and an educational platform. And all of it can be had with a budget of under 75 dollars a month. I was a member from before and I always liked the program. So one day I just asked Jon if they'd sell it to me. And here we are! Have a great day!😀

That is pretty awesome! Thanks for the background. Makes a lot of sense now!

You're welcome and thank you, @bozz! Glad it helped. Enjoy your day!😀

Great work you are doing, new responsibilities causing you to learn new skills. Kudos.

Thanks very much, @gratitudemine! It is is a great learning experience. Enjoy your day.😀

Good luck with the Pizza Plan Lisa!! I think you will make it a smashing success!! !CTP

Best of luck!

I am liking what the CTP team is putting out.

Thanks very much, @metzli! Sorry for the delayed response. Have an awesome day! 😀

You are off to a great start, Lisa. Just keep discovering things in your admin area you will have this down in no time.
!CTP

Thanks very much, John! That Admin back office is really something. There is a ton there to discover. Have a great day!😀
