This is something I’ve been thinking about for a while. Everyone has a hero they look up to, someone they admire. The realm I most associate myself with is the new media crowd (blogging, podcasting, internet video). Let me introduce you to my mentors:
Internet Business:
Jason Van Orden -Podcaster first and foremost, entrepreneur at heart. He was responsible for most of the promoting ideas
Podcasting:
Paul Colligan – Best mentor anyone could ask for. He knows this area well, and is an awesome friend to have. To me, his name is synonymous with podcasting.
Blogging:
Yaro Starak – One of the first blogs I ever followed when I first came into this realm in early 2006. Everything he writes is so simple, anyone can understand it.
Darren Rowse – When I first ran across ProBlogger, I thought of the name. I said, “I want to be a Pro-Blogger” and I’ve modeled much of what I do on the internet around that statement.
Social Media:
Leesa Barnes – Started out podcasting, made a book
Those are my mentors, what about you?
Taylor Marek is my mentor
Yay! Thanks for being the youngest person I interviewed for my book. Not even sure how I got connected to you, but I was so impressed with all that you were doing that I had to interview you. Totally honored that you selected me as one of your mentors. Can't wait to see where success will take you. Say hi to mom for me 😉
@leesabarnes Thanks, and not a problem at all. Glad I could feature you! 🙂
Was listening to the recording of the interview we had, and it was because I tagged you in a post. I'll send you the entire recording if you want. 🙂
