Rob started life as an accountant. Numbers was his world. He soon realized there was more to life than working.
He started buying ads for software company he was a part of. Then others started to ask him for help with their campaigns. Soon he was doing it full time.
He learned by testing on a really small scale. Bought courses and tried to get as much info as possible. Still to this day he gets every course he can get his hands on. Trying to improve and find better ideas; if possible. Now he employs a staff of 8 and they’re continuing to grow quickly.
