Daniel Vassallo used to work for Amazon. By every measuring standard, he should have been happy & content. He was successful, making a high salary, getting promotions, working with great coworkers - all while working for one of the biggest companies in the world. However, over time, Daniel's motivation to work there decreased, and after a lot of internal deliberations, he decided to quit his high 6 figure job at Amazon to pursue the unknown. 

He didn't want to live on someone else’s terms so he decided to take his independence into his own hands. What happened next was completely unexpected...

Daniel and I discussed:

• Why he left his cushy Amazon job
• Crossing $400K in sales on Gumroad (from 3 info products) in 1.5 yrs.
• What his plan (or lack of one) was when he left Amazon
• The info product space
• Why he chose Gumroad as his preferred platform
• Why you don't need to be an "expert" to sell info products 
• The importance of transparency 
• The democratization of content on the internet 
• How he drives traffic to his courses

And much more...

My take: I love risk-takers - I love when a person decides to bet on themselves, and lead the life they desire to live. Not every risk pays off - sometimes things don't work out - but there's really only one way to find out, and that’s through action. The internet offers everyone a fair chance to pursue their passion or their ideas - and make a living from it.
