Blogging for Solopreneurs is a unique step-by-step guide to setup your blog and launch your personal brand online
Don’t you wish you had a lab where you could practice all the marketing concepts that you learn in the classroom and all the skills that you learned from courses?
Don’t you wish that just like a focused and committed scientist, you are able to perform great marketing experiments and produce some great results that truly brand you as a marketer?
In fact..
Don’t you wish you had a blog that helped you build a strong personal brand?
Here’s the thing.
You could see yourself as an ‘MBA student’ or an ‘MBA aspirant’ or an ‘MBA Graduate’. But the fact is that the greatest opportunities that help you earn money and make a great career will come only if you prove yourself to be a ‘practitioner’ of your area..
Therefore, stop calling yourself an enthusiast and become a practitioner of your field by starting your own blog and take your solopreneurship journey to the next level.
From this course, here’s what you will get:
- You will create your own website or blog that will propagate your personal brand.
- Now this blog that you own becomes your lab where you can solidify your knowledge and practice your skills
- A blog that will build your personal brand and help you emerge as distinct and unique.
How do you do that?
- Whatever you learn in the classroom, you will be able to convert them into good detailed articles on your blog.
- These articles will be specific to your target industry and job role that you have decided in the Dream Career Clarity course
- Further, having your blog means that you can practice all your digital skills there. For example, Search Engine Optimization (SEO), Email Marketing, Content Marketing, User Experience.
You know that for you to get the best career outcomes from your MBA, you need to become a strong personal brand. For you as an MBA, your personal brand is hinged upon your knowledge and skills.
Now, suddenly, by the end of the course you would have created a marketing lab where you can practice your knowledge and skills. And that blog in itself will be the portfolio and the proof of your personal brand.
Having a marketing experiments lab is the next level of learning from online courses.
