helped them accelerate was being part of a network, being a part of a group of people that voice-verified

Supports you and helps you grow and sort of forces you to level up, holds you accountable, all of that sort of stuff. voice-verified

So, with that said, this podcast is brought to you by the Handcrafted Network. voice-verified

It's an amazing online community where you get to connect with other makers. voice-verified

We have a few other people, like I've said on the previous podcasts, that are coming in that are that are doing different mediums. voice-verified

So we have some art uh some painters, we have some ceramicists, we have some leather. voice-verified

workers. voice-verified

We have a bunch of other people that are starting to filter in there, which has been really cool. voice-verified

It's been great getting to know everybody's businesses and get to chat and talk with all of them about that sort of stuff. voice-verified

All right, so with that said, what am I going to talk about today? voice-verified

But in the early days and even, you know, into the later days, unless you're selling of something that just keeps going off the shelves, and that's what I ended up niching down into tables. voice-verified

And I think it took me about three years or so to do that, three or four years to really just be like, okay, we're just going to do tables. voice-verified
