Making Money With Geospatial Content

It sounds like a clickbait title, right? And to be fair I am trying to capture your attention but this is not clickbait in the sense that the title makes a promise that the episode lives up to!

This is not a “get-rich-quick-scheme” its a story about someone like us who is earning money by using his geospatial skills to teach others.

Konrad Hafen is a hydrologist with the USGS and runs two websites and a youtube channel, he is a geospatial content creator who makes money from ads and from selling online courses.

Each episode I publish has some sort of editorial intent, the intent of this episode is to show you a real-life example of someone like us who is using their geospatial knowledge if a different way.

Not because I think this is for everyone! But because I think the more examples we are exposed to of people doing something different the more options we might see in our own lives.

We don’t have to take advantage of these opportunities but there is some comfort in knowing that they are there. That we are not stuck.

If you listen to this episode and what to learn more about making money with geospatial content, Konrad and I will host a free webinar ( if we get enough interest! ) where we teach you the basics. Sign up here https://geospatialschool.com/webinar/
