School Update!

In the middle of  the Christmas Break and I'm loving it!  But my quest for knowledge hasn't subsided as I'm continually trying to learn more about the industry on my own time and what my place will be in it.  The final grades haven't come back from the internet marketing class, or my behavioral science class but as they stand right now I've gotten A's from both classes.  If I could summarize the top 5 basic concepts that I have learned this first month they would be:

1. The internet has changed the rules of marketing.

2. I am a Kinesthetic learner.

3. Content is what is in demand right now. (If you build it, they will come)

4. 92% of communication in non-verbal. (or on the case of this blog 100% LOL)

5. Don't Sell.  Become a thought leader instead. Here is an article I wrote about that if you'd like to read it.

At the end of the day I am determined to make this Sponsorship program work!  I really enjoy everything about marketing on the internet.  I'm applying my knowledge every chance I get.

I even got an article accepted into Ezine Articles about internet marketing, which awarded me Expert Author Status with my first submission.  I was stoked!  That may or may not be a common achievement but I chalk it up as a victory.

Keep and eye out the next couple of days as make certain changes to the EtchUcateChris website that I feel will ultimately be beneficial in the long run.  If you have any ideas feel free to e-mail me.

Blog Day 1

Okay class starts on the 23^rd and I am stoked! I just finished the orientation, which to my surprise was followed up with a quiz about the orientation as a whole. I guess I shouldn’t have been surprised seeing how it is an online class and it’s the only and best way to find out if you actually took the orientation seriously.

Brief Update!

I need to complete the EtchUcateChris.com’s Blog page, which will be followed by very shortly with a Vlog, and a forum.  Not to mention a different page to capture corporate information for the corporate sponsorship. The forum I hope will be a source of inspiration and networking which may cause people to take an active role in their education in similar ways that I’m trying. It will offer an opportunity for people to network and interact and I will be looking for follower feed back from the forum on different subjects and case studies. So please feel free to take and active role in being a forum master!

As soon as I have these different aspects of the website built I will then begin to take an active role in trying to find sponsorship. In the mean time you can help this part of the effort by inviting all of your friends and people who you would think might take an interest in this project to follow our progress. Thank you for your support/friendship/familyship!

Okay I think that coves the first entry of the Blog, more to come as the story unfolds.
