I’m really excited today to announce that alongside Chris Garrett (who co-authored the ProBlogger hard cover book and who now works as the Chief Digital Officer at CopyBlogger) I’ll be running a ProBlogger day of training in Portland Oregon on Thursday 10 July.
The day will be called the ProBlogger Academy and it’s being run as part of Chris Guillebeau’s World Domination Summit.
This will be the only US based teaching that I’ll be doing in 2014 and a rare chance to get Chris and I in the same room at the same time!
Tickets are limited and given their price they could go quickly. If you’re a WDS attendee they are just $29 USD and if you’re not a WDS ticket holder they’re still a bargain at $49 USD!
I know I’ll get asked about the low pricing on this. No it’s not so that we can get you in the door to sell you something – the price is low for two reasons:
- we wanted to make this as accessible for as many people as possible
- we’re doing this as a part of the larger WDS event and they’re a not for profit organisation
Chris and I are involved simply because we love what WDS does and we want to give a little something back. PLUS we also get asked to do events in the US a lot so this seemed like a pretty good time/place to do it as we know a lot of ProBlogger readers will be at WDS.
Grab your tickets here
The day runs from 9am-4pm (although we’ll stop for breaks along the way) and we hope to have a couple of special guests along to be involved in the teaching.
We’ll cover our main 4 ‘pillars’ of blogging:
- Creating Killer Content
- Finding Readers
- Building Community
- Monetization
We’ll cover the above with lots of practical teaching and if previous times Chris and I have gotten together are anything to go by you’ll come home with a head full of ideas. There will be plenty of time to explore other topics as we always include opportunity for Q&A.
Tickets are limited so please don’t delay if you’re thinking of coming and head to this Eventbrite page to grab yours.
I wish I could attend ProBlogger Academy, but I stay far away from the US :(
I too wish I could attend the lectures. Chris Guillebeau is famous for The Art of Non-Conformity blog and Darren Rowse for the problogger. Hope this will be a wonderful time for the attendees
What is the location?
They’re yet to announce the actual venue but they all happen in downtown Portland Oregon
Thanks Darren :-)
That’s my hometown!
This will be amazing, and hopefully I’ll be visiting next time you come through!
Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend as because it’s quite far from my location. Will it be streaming live from anywhere, if so then it would have been great.
Great overview! I’m really looking forward to this event, thank you for hosting it!
