What It's About

An update from a professor who cracks the code for a 7-figure business built on cybersecurity courses.

Notes from Chris

Episode 1328
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them.

Last week we heard from the co-owner of Near and Deer, a faux taxidermy service that experienced a huge influx of orders in the spring—I guess when you’re quarantined you think, you know, what I need right now is an artificial bison head to put on my wall.

Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Jason Dion. We first featured Jason back in episode #462: Adjunct Professor Puts Course on YouTube for $100k Profit.

For all the adjunct instructors out there who are underpaid, maybe go and listen to that story. He actually reached the $100k in profit mark in just sixteen months. Part of the key, of course, is teaching the right topics, and Jason’s field is cybersecurity.

Listen to today's episode to hear Jason's updates...
