5 Coding Benefits

Here are 5 benefits of coding (that are important for anyone's life).

Number 5 is my favorite.

Coding Benefit 1 = Build Cooler Products

If you want to:

• Build cool stuff.

• Work on cool projects.

• See how people do things in different industries.

Learn how to code.

Don't stay stagnant.

Keep building your mind.

Work with other people who like to grow too.

When you can code, you're on the cutting edge of technology.

You pay attention to things that other people don't pay attention to.

Which means you get to build stuff that other people cant even imagine.

Coding curates creativity.

Coding Benefit 2 = Save a TON of Time

Coding saves a ton of time for you and your clients.

When you code, you can charge more for your time, which means you can work less and still make a good living.

For your clients, you save them time because their processes are near instantaneous.

With API calls you can speed things up much faster.

With SSJS and AMPscript, you can update information in real time.

With SQL, you can automate segmentation as fast as the system will process the database.

With code, you can push the limits of technology.

Saving you and everybody else a ton of time if you build things the right way.

Coding Benefit 3 = Job Security

I don't know too many coders who cant find a job.

Especially if you pair coding with another skill like Marketing Cloud.

There aren't many out there, so companies really need them.

Coding Benefit 4 = Make WAY More Money

You can charge more and work less.

If you make $45 per hour right now, its because you're competing with people who bring $90,000 worth of value to the company.

But if you code, you can automatically increase that hourly rate by an extra $30 dollars.

You can charge at least $75 per hour to code for a company.

Think about that for a second.

If you make $30 per hour, you would need to work for 5 hours to make 150 bucks.

$30 x 5 hours = $150

If you charge $75 per hour, you can work 2 hours and make the same amount.

$75 x 2 hours = $150 bucks.

You saved 3 hours of working and made the same amount.

Now multiply that by 40 hours and see the difference.

$30 x 40 hours = $1,200

$75 x 40 hours = $3,000

That's a $1,800 difference for the same amount of work in one workweek.

And you can make way more than $75 bucks an hour.

So there's WAY more money to be made.

Coding Benefit 5 = Think different

When you start coding you start thinking different than before.

Most people don't realize how different developers think than the rest of the population.

There's a certain logic that you learn when you code.

You carry that logic with you throughout life.

Every decision you make follows a different thought process than people who don't code.

You're able to solve difficult problems with more clarity (without even realizing it).

If you want to approach life different (and get different results), learn how to code.

In Summary:

These are 5 reasons that coding is beneficial for anyone in tech.

1. You get to build Cooler Products when you code.

2. Save a TON of time by coding the solution.

3. Have more job security because there's less competition.

4. May WAY more money because there's more demand for coders.

5. Coders think different than everyone else.

I'm curious to hear what your thoughts about coding are.
