"Understanding how to scrape the web can be a startup employee's best asset. This course makes it dead simple without any prior technical knowledge."
- Max Altschuler, Founder @ Sales Hacker Conference
I've made my career out of growing companies and no matter the stage your company is in, you're always trying to find your unfair advantage that provides sustainable growth now and into the future. When I first learned what web scraping was I knew it was a game changer! Being able to grab massive amounts of data from the web for leads was the unfair advantage over my competitors I was looking for.
The only problem was that I had to know how to code to use it. I spent months learning to code just so I could start utilizing web scraping, but this course shows you have to skip all of that.
Learn to scrape without code
