How to Make a Living with WordPress

The premise
From the published WordCamp Ottawa 2013 session listing — abstract identical to the one used at WordCamp Detroit 2011:
“A look at how to make a living working with a free product like WordPress. The presentation looks at how bloggers, designers and developers can build authority, revenue and opportunities by supporting open source development.”
