Trump University if offering a free 18 page report on Trump’s 10 Commandments of Branding if you’re brave enough to answer 4 questions and give them your contact information.

No, I don’t think “the Donald” will be calling you personally to solicit your enrollment.

While we’re at it though… what do YOU think those 10 Commandments should be listed as? Here’s my stab…

10. Never launch a “university” without first doing a prime time TV show to build your cred…and get paid at the same time in case the real estate market goes south fast.
9.  Never call a direct marketing infomation empire anything BUT a “university”… you don’t want to be lumped together with those schlockmeisters selling their get rich quick schemes…
8.  Never drive a Mercedes when a Rolls Royce will do…
7.  Never say “You’re Fired!” unless you’re looking good enough to be taped for TV…
6.  Never pay retail on bond repayments when bankruptcy lets you change interest rates in mid stream…
5.  Only play golf when you own the course and can charge others to play with you…
4.  Never sell your car without making it an ebay auction for maximum returns (Oops, my apologies to Donald,  that’s Warren Buffet who’s doing that!)
3. Never marry without owning some residual interest in your future ex-wife’s tell all book and first dibs playing yourself in the movie for additional free advertising…
2. Never forget that megalomaniacs automatically have their own innate marketing plan if nothing else works for you.
1.  The secret’s in the HAIR, my friend! THE HAIR!
