Thanks for this tip-off – I was glued to the Authority report as am currently poised to launch my self-help book which use my “cross-over authority” of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) and Law of Attraction. My niche is baby boomers – especially mid-life women wanting to “break-free fast where “stuck” to attract and live the life they love.
My authority is “been there,done that – broke, lonely and homeless at 50+ and turned it around with my teaching/coaching techniques to now live the “life I love.”
Still so much to do, learn and apply re online blogging… a never-ending story – but thanks to authorities like you and Brian… well we newbies can share our passion and make money.
Chris thanks a lot for this very very informative article. One must admire copyblogger how they explain all this in very easy way. It’s rally worth reading report. Thanks again.
Thanks Brian for another inspirational publication. As they say, and I act on it – What goes around, comes around.
Speaking of “power”, my late much loved Dad (1899 – 1974) was fond of quoting Lord Acton: “Power tends to corrupt, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.”
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing it.
Given the preciousness of time, anytime you do a detour and find a piece of gold is a good time. AUTHORITY RULES is pure gold – lots of ready-to-use practical wisdom. An exceptional freebie of tremendous value, well worth your time. Thanks for bringing it to us!

What a nutso offering. Like just throwing off solid ideas, no expectation of instant gain. I was like “come on, DUDE, what are you selling.”
Nothing, nada. Not yet at least.
High expectations.
Thanks Chris, it’s good to know you liked it, given you know a thing or two about the topic.
Whooops! I just remembered: Thanks too to you Chris, for posting Brian’s Authority Rules, and for your own excellent material.
If Caryl is reading this, congratulations on getting where you are right now, Youe may be interested in Dr Joseph Mercola, whose website http://www.mercola.com contains much interesting alternative health info, including the Emotional Freedom Technique.
Thanks Chris,
I got the Copyblogger report and sucked the
information out of it… really, it’s like my
brain develops tentacles sometimes…
I did the same with your Killer Flagship Content!

Brian, has a totally unfair advantage with that nutty Chris Pearson on his side! That guy whips up these awesome looking sites over a weekend and then Brian just bangs out this phenominal report that just hits the nail smack bang on the head. These guys make it look way to easy!
Needless to say, Brian totally gets it and the report rocks.
Hi Chris,
This is a fantastic report and even better that it’s free. I would have been prepared to pay for the info in here it’s so good!
My long term goal is to become an authority figure / have an authority blog in the pro blogging / IM niche and it was reassuring that the stuff Brian talked about I am doing to some extent.
It’s nice to be on the right track even if it is going to take a lot of work!

@Caryl: That’s what it is all about, share your passions and profit by helping people
@yusuf: That Brian seems to have a gift, eh?
@Gordon: That is why we need community, it keeps us in check
@Vicky: I just passed along the news, Brian created it
@Beat: My pleasure
@Genuine: Ah but he is earning from it in a round about way – he is walking his talk
@Brian: You knew it would be like catnip
@Fran: Glad you like
@Phil: Makes you want to get your own Chris Pearson doesn’t it?
@David: Anything worth having is worth working for, right?
Very interesting…half hour here and I’ve already learned a lot.
I will be back and often. Will also give you a good mention in my own blog, thanks for the great articles.
Awesome I can not wait to read this!
Thanks for the reminder, Chris. I had told myself to get Brian’s report last week & time slipped away. Brian’s articles are always so helpful with the way he shares his knowledge in a natural and easy to relate with style.
It’s great how the community supports each other. I was just on a call this week with Carrie Wilkerson where we talked about collaboration and how it’s so strengthens everyone involved. Perfect example here!
