Do you have a knack for problem-solving? Leadership?

Do you enjoy tech?

 

Then becoming an Integrator might be just the side hustle for you.

 

Today’s guest Mike Dallas-Petersen suggests you could be earning between $3,000 to $5,000 recurring monthly income in just 90 days.

 

Earning well into a mid-6 figure income himself doing this kind of work, Mike now also teaches the business to others.

 

An Integrator is someone who identifies the biggest bottlenecks in an online company’s marketing, sales and operations, then sets up automated systems, integrations and workflows to improve profits and efficiencies. Or as Mike puts it, "I glue the internet together, one software at a time."

You’ll discover things like,

 

• what an Integrator actually does,

• what skill set makes for the best integrators,

• the premier way to find clients, and

• the common traits of his most successful students.

 

It’s also an inspirational tale of persevering through multiple failures and reinventing oneself.
