The Handcrafted Podcast: The Business of making things · Talk Story: Why Storytelling Makes Your Business More Valuable · 20 Jul 2026 podcast

So we wanted the base to be minimal and centrally focused.

With that, we created the Dorin, which has gentle edges as well as a unique one-of-a-kind tabletop.

where the tabletop is the showcase piece.

And when you tell that story, people go, Oh, that makes sense.

Now I understand this piece.

And what happens is they can then convey the story.

So whether it be interior designer or maybe one of uh two partners or a spouse or something sharing to another spouse, they can then convey that specific story.

Going back to what I was saying about the LeBron James thing, that's now a story that you're able to share with somebody, right?

So say you're trying to get uh convince you.

Your partner to allow you to have a I don't know uh a sauna in your backyard, right?

You could say, hey, LeBron James pays $1.5 million to a year to f in his own development so he can make his fifty two million.

I need, you know, this five thousand dollar sauna in my backyard to help me get my head straight, to help me grow a seven-figure business.

And that story now is

is going to get passed on and j you know through the different channels and I'm sure all of you guys are going to have different versions of what that story is.

So, with that said, I just want to emphasize the importance of storytelling.

It doesn't need to be long, but you need to think creatively.

You need to think about how can I build a story around any particular conversation that I'm having.

So, how a piece was developed, why this stain color, why this base selection, why your company.

So I think a great way and a really good tool.

For storytelling is to explain think of the why, or think about how you can tell this around a campfire.
