<p><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikeckennedy/python-for-entrepreneurs-video-course">Python for Entrepreneurs</a>

is a new video course by the creators of

<a href="https://talkpython.fm/">Talk Python to Me</a> and

<a href="https://fullstackpython.com/">Full Stack Python</a>.</p>

<p>We are creating this course and running a Kickstarter for it based on

feedback that it's still too damn difficult to turn basic Python programming

knowledge into a business to generate income as a side or full time project.

Both Michael and I have been able to make that happen for ourselves and we

want to share every difficult lesson we've learned through this course.</p>

<p>The Python for Entrepreneurs videos and content will dive into building

and deploying a real-world web application, marketing it to prospective

customers, handling search engine optimization, making money through credit

card payments, getting help from part-time contractors for niche tasks and

scaling up to meet traffic demands.</p>

<p>If this course hits the mark for what you want to do with Python,

<a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mikeckennedy/python-for-entrepreneurs-video-course">check out the Kickstarter</a> - we've

set up steep discounts for early backers.</p>

<p><em>Update</em>: The Kickstarter is now closed - Michael and I are hard at work

on the course content. Thank you to everyone who supported us as a backer!</p>

<p>If you have any questions, please reach out to

or me, <a href="https://twitter.com/mattmakai">Matt Makai</a>.</p>
