In 2012, John Azzi reached out to his former college roommate with an offer.
His roommate, Eliot Arntz, was miserable working as an accountant in New York City, so Azzi offered him a small sum to learn how to code, with the agreement he’d join Azzi’s app development agency, Bitfountain, once his education was complete.
“In the meantime, he was teaching weekend courses at General Assembly to teach others how to code simple iOS apps,” Azzi remembers. “His students loved him. So I said, ‘Let’s put this online to reach more people at a lower price point.’”
Azzi and Arntz spent three months, and about $US1,000, putting together an online course on app development for iOS 7.
“The first week was crazy,” Azzi says. “We literally emailed every person we knew in tech — from Eliot’s GA students to people who came to an iOS meetup we hosted, telling them that we built a course that would take absolute beginners and turn them into junior developers in about three months of learning.”
They charged $US99 for the course, and that first month it was live — September 2013 — they made about $US40,000.
