👉 ABOUT CORY OLDHAM
Cory Oldham has always been an entrepreneur, just like you! He’s been selling stuff since he was a little kid, starting with selling bracelets and baseball cards to his classmates in middle school.

He’s owned his own healthcare clinic for the past 14+ years, all while taking a deep-dive on marketing and entrepreneurship. So now, he's gone from "Doctor To Marketer." 🤯🤯

His interest turned to online marketing & YouTube several years ago when he realized the potential of using the online platform to create raving fans that turned into customers for his businesses.

Since then, he’s created a software that guides entrepreneurs and creators through the content creation/optimization process, all while doing this effortlessly.

🎥 It’s called Content Alchemy.
