017. Earn $70k a Year While Still In School As a Salesforce Professional
About this episode
Think back to the last part-time job you had when you were in college. Chances are, you probably were not earning much at the time.
But what if you could be making at least $35 an hour as a Salesforce administrator, while going to college? Or even more amazing, working as a Salesforce professional without a 4-year college degree?
Our guests today are Tucker Gartner, Eric Kogan, and Patrick Amis, who got certified as Salesforce administrators and launched their careers before getting their 4-year degrees. One of them even got started back in high school!
If you know someone who might want to explore an alternative to the 4-year-college path that would still land them a high-paying job, this episode is one they need to tune into!
