55 Must-Read Startup Bloggers

55 of the Leading Startup BloggersBy Mark Evans, ME Consulting

About Mark EvansI’m the principal with ME Consulting, which helps startups and entrepreneurs tell better stories (aka marketing).I offer “foundational” services: strategic planning, core messaging, brand positioning and content marketing. I do a fair bit of writing, including a startup marketing blog and a weekly newsletter, This Week in Canadian Startups.

The 55 BlogsAfter a lot of digging and suggestions from the startup community, I created a list of the leading startup bloggers.

So what’s a “leading” blogger, you might ask?

To be honest, it’s a loose term but I focused on people who write about startups (finance, operations, sales, marketing, law) on a regular basis – at least weekly. You’d be surprised to see the number of well-known startup blogs that have been collecting dust, which meant they didn’t make the list.

It’s an interesting mix of people – entrepreneurs, consultants, VCs, angels, lawyers and academics.

If you have suggestions about blogs that should be on the list, let me know.
