Who is Chris Von Wilpert?
Chris started his first business (a snow cone stand — Snowy Joey) when he was 17. He grew the business while completing his Bachelor of Business Management degree at The University of Queensland, Australia.
After learning the skills to do marketing for his own business... and selling over 1 million snow cones... he started helping brands with their marketing.
He flew from Australia to Austin, TX where he helped a growing tech startup (AppSumo) scale their content marketing channel.
After growing AppSumo's content channel from $0 to $112,500/month, he decided to do what he loves best:
Promote great tech brands.
With experience consulting with $100M+ tech companies like AppSumo and Amazon, he started helping 100s of online entrepreneurs grow their business using content marketing and SEO.
Now this media site is his 24/7 thing. He teaches what he does (and how he does it) to over 10,000 students in this playbook.
