#2 Do you need a Masters in MPC or an MBA in Creator Economy?
Read about use cases of MPC, 100 true fans, difference btw MPC & MBA and our website launch 🚀
Hello
Here is the weekly post on my newsletter Masters in MPC. Last few days, I spoke to some fantastic folks at my workplace, creators, and some twitter gurus to talk about Masters in MPC project. The response has been great 😊
During my discussions, one of the interesting tweets that I stumbled upon was from Paul Graham in 2019.

MBA is valuable, but not for everyone. That should not be the only career growth path for us. Right? Don’t you think so?
Few use cases of MPC I have been observing around are
Product managers are acquiring media & community skills by working on projects to upskill in their careers as an alternative to an MBA.
Agency business founders are using media, product & community skills to build online stores to build steady revenue flows. Read this thread
Substack founders started a community program called Substack Fellowship, adding to their media & product.
If you are a writer, you can make more money & fame now compared to joining a publishing or a media house and work for a fixed amount for your time. MPC can help you do this 👇🏻Writers can learn to use substack (Product) to create interesting newsletters (Media) and learn to build their true 100+ subscribers (Community) to eventually make money. There was no other platform before which gave all this as a package. Welcome to the creator economy.
Why is MPC and MBA quite different?
