There’s surely a wrong way to learn marketing – and many of us are guilty of it!

I’m a lifelong learner and student of the mysteries of marketing, but I’ve discovered from my own actions (and from observing others) that we often learn marketing the wrong way.

Marketing strategy and tactics need to be learned, but a majority of us end up learning 10X more than what we actually implement. 

Your marketing quotient will definitely grow if you:

1. Scroll through marketing posts on social media groups
2. Subscribe to and read quite a few marketing blogs
3. Drift from one marketing article to a related one and so on

However, that’s not likely to translate to much if you don’t put the learnings into practice, experiment multiple times, and come up with your own marketing learnings.

For every 1 hour you spend implementing, make sure that you don’t spend more than 4 hours learning. 

Learning without applying isn’t really learning at all.
