With a BR that small two things need to be added as considerations, but being able to add to your BR makes them less significant. I guess you can just take a break for a while if things go bad to add to your BR until it is built back up.
One is you will hit a point where you can't lower your minimum bet so adjusting your ramp will mean lowering your spread. At that point you should wait and add to your BR until it is but back up enough.
Two is at a certain BR you will be able to play better games. I felt that that was a $20K BR. Once you can play high enough minimums you get less crowded tables, often deeper cuts, and sometimes better rules. Look at the offerings for green chip players. Notice the table conditions, number of decks used, penetration, and the rule changes. If the games you can access are significantly better there being certain to get to the BR required is more important than playing because of the big difference your results will see when you get the better conditions. Your circumstance of being able to add $1K to your BR every other week means you are guaranteed to get there simply by not playing. All it takes is time. At some point the amount of time will become short enough that waiting becomes your best option for making it there with the most certainty.
