First $1,000: Running Coach Strides to Finish Line

Notes from Chris

Episode 1934

Today’s episode is part of a new feature we’re doing in 2022 called ‘Your First $1,000.’ As you might surmise from the title, this is all about how someone made their first $1,000.

How did they get to that point? Not their first $100,000—that’s cool, but it would probably be a long story.

One thing I’ve learned is that once you begin to earn real money, the steps required to go to the next level—whether it’s $1,000 to $2,000, or even to $5,000 or $10,000 are often easier than that first real paycheck.

With that in mind, today’s feature comes from Jason Fitzgerald in Denver, Colorado. We first featured him back on Episode #1347: Dedicated Runner Goes the Distance for Online Training. The business grew to become a full-time career about two years later.

But what about his first $1,000—how did he make that happen, what did it feel like, and what did he learn?

Listen to today's episode to learn more...
