How to earn a Blogging MBA

As a militant marketer blogging is not only a strategy that has been adapted into my standard operating procedure, it is also a tactic that I employ on the marketing battlefield on a regular basis.  I have in fact been a blogger for a number of years however it was just recently that I decided, “Mark Brown, as a warrior leader you must master the art of blogging!”  So I set out to find the best instructor to teach me how to earn a blogging MBA.

What I found actually suprised me and I would be interested to know how you discovered your knack for blogging, did it come easy for you or was it a skill that you had to work at, leave me a post and let me know.

To my good fortune my friend Samuel from The Ultimate Publishing Blog wrote a superb walkthrough about he set up his wordpress blog.  The title of his post was Strategic Blogging Manifesto  I found his tutorial to be superb and it was a great resource that assisted me in setting up my blog.

Don’t click away because I have put the cart before the horse, in order to get an MBA in blogging you have to have a strong foundation before you can become an advanced or accomplished blogger.  For me this foundation came from Mark Joyner’s blogging course which you can get as an elective learning course at the Simpleology website.  As an aside if you have not heard of Simpleology, I highly recomend checking out the Simplology website after you get done reading this post, Mark is a friend of mine and we have a few things in common one of those things is that we are both Army veterans and enlightened marketers.

I have a rabid appetite for blogging content and one of my favorite blog articles that relates to blogging came from Seth Godin, his post titled How to get traffic for your blog  is outstanding.  Militant Marketers and Warrior Leaders everywhere should go and read that post now.  One of my favorite tidbits that Seth mentions is “Write posts that each include dozens of trackbacks to dozens of blog posts so that people will notice you.”

So is Mark Edward Brown’s Blog a graduate level, professional grade blog, my personal opinion is – not yet, what are your thoughts or recomendations?  Leave me a comment and let me know.

The Battle Rages On – CHARGE!!!

I like quotes, they are powerful if you internalize them, they cut to the chase, they are the bottom line up front, there is no hype or fluf just words that cause you to take action – or not!

Here is a quote now that should make you think and cause you to take action:

“To be yourself – when the world is doing everything
in its power to make you just like everyone else,
is to fight the greatest battle of your life” – Bill Gove

Stay in the fight, be who you are and were meant to be,
never give up, never quite, and never surrender!
