Johno is an Experienced Design Engineer with over 100 satisfied freelance clients. He does freelance design and specializes in Solidworks, 3D CAD. He was born in Yorkshire, England and trained as helicopter pilot in the Royal Air Force. Following this he studied Sustainable Product Design, before driving a London Black Cab around the world, setting two Guinness World Records. He currently lives in Kuala Lumpur and works as Freelance Product Designer. 

I first heard about Johno when I took his LinkedIn Learning class called “SOLIDWORKS: Designing for Consumer Electronics.” Over 8K people “liked” the course and I called it “my favorite SOLIDWORKS course of all time” in my LinkedIn and that post got over 3K views (so hopefully I drove some traffic to his class, it’s the least I could do). 

In this episode we’ll discuss what it’s like to teach a SOLIDWORKS class on LinkedIn Learning & Udemy, plus how to have 100 satisfied freelance customers.
