Six and a half years ago I launched https://www.masteringmodernpayments.com/ https://www.masteringmodernpayments.com/, a book to teach people how to integrate Stripe with their Rails app. It generated almost $80k of revenue, mostly front loaded but with a really long tail.
Recently I turned off sales because I was feeling more and more guilty about not having time to update it, and now that I work for Stripe updating it involves a layer of approval.
Of course, now I work for Stripe so I'd say it was a success :)
- pknerd 7y agoHow did Stripe hire you?
- zrail 7y agoI attended a remote coffee chat[1] and then applied at the jobs page[2] :) I did already know a handful of people that already work there as well. [1]: https://stripe.events/remote-coffee https://stripe.events/remote-coffee [2]: https://stripe.com/jobs https://stripe.com/jobs
