Jamie Craig
I started out my career as a professional footballer, where after suffering an injury, I went on to have a 12-year career as a gas engineer. Before we left to travel full time I attended Uni part-time which is where I attained a degree in business management.
With no prior knowledge of anything social media or website-related, I know how it feels to be completely daunted by the thought of it all. Being self-taught we know exactly what it takes to deliver a course in a clear and concise manner no matter the skill set of the person we are teaching.
I absolutely thrive on helping others succeed and I have made sure my SEO masterclass module will have you on the fast track from beginner to expert.

Originally from New Zealand but of Croatian heritage, I've always been a freedom-loving adventurer.
In 2014 I made the move to London and started climbing the career ladder while working in various high profile digital agencies. Office life was great, but it didn't offer me the freedom I was looking for. So, in 2017 I quit my well-paid job, said goodbye to my flat and left London to travel full time with Jamie.
After travelling for the last two years my goal is to continue to be a digital nomad - working on my laptop from wherever I want, having the freedom to visit my family in various countries around the world and to be financially free. Blogging has allowed me to build a foundation to achieve this dream and honestly, I believe now that anything is possible.
Wanting to share our journey and success with others Jamie and I have taken everything we've learned in the last few years and turned it into a step-by-step guide to fast track you to the life you've always dreamed of.
FAQ

What if English isn't my first language or grammar isn't my strong point?
Don't worry, being from Scotland Jamie sometimes feels like he's speaking another language too. Like the niche, this course will apply to any language. What we provide is the tools and knowledge that can be used in whatever language you choose to write in.

What email marketing service do you teach in the course?
Since day one we have used Mailchimp which is perfect for those of you who are just starting your mailing list. With easy to use features and a simple user interface it's also free to use until you reach a certain amount of email subscribers. Not only will we teach you how to set it up, we will explain why a mailing list is important and also give you hints and tips on how we have grown our own.

I don't use Wordpress or Bluehost. Will Mailchimp still work for me?
Yes, it should. Mailchimp integrates with around 230 different platforms including the likes of Wordpress and Squarespace. If you aren't sure then we advise that you visit the 'integration' section of the Mailchimp website first to double-check before you enrol in our course.
