In particular, we discuss:


[08:37] Why Jasons thinks every accountant should be creating content online

He has produced commercials for companies like LinkedIn and Zapier.

This is going to be a two-part episode with Jason. The first which you're listening to today is all about his content creation process.

In a separate episode, Jason shares a behind-the-scenes look at deciding to leave his accounting firm and how he managed that transition with his business partner.
