Neil Patel is a legend in the digital marketing space. He’s a serial entrepreneur who has co-founded companies like Crazy Egg, Hello Bar and KISSmetrics. He also helps major companies like Amazon, NBC, GM, HP and Viacom grow their revenue.
The Wall Street Journal calls him a top influencer on the web, Forbes says he’s one of the top 10 online marketers, and Entrepreneur Magazine says he created one of the 100 most brilliant companies in the world.
Neil was recognized as a top 100 entrepreneur under the age of 30 by President Obama and he was named one of the top 100 entrepreneurs under the age of 35 by the United Nations.
He writes frequently for publications such as inc.com, and his new book, Hustle: The Power to Charge Your Life with Money, Meaning, and Momentum, landed on the New York Times Bestseller list.
Neil packs a lot of great tips into this episode. In our conversation, Neil shares some of his tips for formatting and writing a great blog post. He talks about some of the strategies he uses to maximize readership of his blog posts, and he reveals the exact strategies he uses to build his massive email list.
Neil also tells me about some big changes to the format, length, and frequency of his own blog posts that his readers should expect to see him put into action soon.
And near the end of our conversation, Neil tells me why he’s expanding his blog internationally, how he’s doing it, and the tremendous impact he’s seeing from his efforts.
I’d also like to make a special shout-out to Tom Morkes who helped me make this episode happen. You can find Tom at his website at tommorkes.com.
