GUP 4: Don McAllister of ScreenCastsOnline.com


In October of 2007 I bought a 24" iMac that changed my world. To get the most of out of it, I looked for resources to help me get a head start on learning about how to get the most out of my new iMac and learn about the cool software available for it. That's when I discovered a Mac-centric online video tutorial website called ScreenCastsOnline. I immediately subscribed, and have been a member ever since.

I'm pleased to have the founder of ScreenCastsOnline, Don McAllister, on the Gainfully Unemployed Podcast.

In this episode, Don McAllister talks about:

  • How he started ScreenCastsOnline

  • Making the jump from the corporate job to pursue ScreenCastsOnline full-time

  • The importance of establishing oneself as an authority

  • How the iPad has changed the way people consume educational material

  • The role podcasting plays in spreading the word about ScreenCastsOnline

  • How Apple's Newsstand app has opened new opportunities for ScreenCastsOnline

  • How his business model has inspired others to create new businesses
