I just started watching your channel last night. And every thing you say I’ve heard from my best friend who is a very successful harness maker (50) years experience. Who sells world wide and has clients from the Amish to to multi billion dollar companies. Now I’m going to be starting a small niche leather product line. I have the ideas and prototypes worked out. Sent samples to Jim Smith at the Tradesman Channel for review and testing. Now I am going to start producing in October. Once the paperwork is completed. Taxes and all the legal stuff. I’m hoping that I learn from others mistakes. I took over the living room with two 750 pound sewing machines, yes I’m still not married at 65 . Go figure 😳
Any how I subscribed to your channel 👍enjoy your day
I love how you always focus on the Simon Sinek concept of "Know Your Why" and then from that pretty much everything else including your business plan flows from that.
Simon is great
Loving the last few months of more concentrated effort type content Ryan. Really great information you are providing us with and super impressive to see how you are growing your business. And I love how with every sentence you seem to be indicating with your hands the ever growing size of the fish you just landed ha ha. Not a dig. Just as an avid fisherman it always makes me chuckle.
Having a niche is one way to do it but eventually those dry up depending what you choose. Also being a custom woodworker doing custom pieces allow you to pick and choose the things you want to and enjoy building. You build in a niche and batch products out it takes away from the creative mind and turns what you loved into a job. Never forget why you started woodworking and why you enjoy it. Batching products takes away from why you started in the first place so be mindful of that. Also I prefer to sell 1 custom item for $10,000 instead of 1000 items for $10 bucks. Smalls have their place but they will burn you out.
Getting my CNC business started and this is the most informative channel I have found. I looked but I didn't see a Patreon or a Discord link.
Thank you for your business and organization on TH-cam! I learn something from your shows each and every time I watch your channel! Also, I hope others can see your desire and go getter attitude!
I like it that you show a sincere take on what you've learned. I get a lot out of that; and it's not all "clickbaity" but I think that gets you a solid following. I Subscribed after finding you a few times man. Good stuff.
Thank you for reflecting on some of your personal marketing successes and failures in an actionable way. It's hard to find that kind of content.
Just found your channel in the past month... Love your videos and what you do with the business focused videos!! Keep it up!
I love that you're sharing what you've learned through your struggles. You show sincerity in helping other "artists of wood" achieve success with a little boost over those same hurdles. Thanks!
My pleasure!
I'm originally from Texas, it's "tORtillas", lol. Great advice though, thanks for putting this out there.
🇨🇦 always appreciate it. Thanks from Edmonton.
Thanks for saying the thing about doing it for more than three years I am approaching The end of my first year and I am feeling like I’m not getting as far as I wanted to so thanks that gives me hope
That ending bit was funny.. and it's most definitely tortillas.. being in El Campo, I'm sure you know that :-)
Another fantastic video! Thank you!
Thanks for your videos. You have some great insight in starting a business.
Thanks for the information. It is interesting hearing your perspective and I always learn something.
Some great advice in there. We focus on local, we have a relatively strong brand, we're niching down, we're 1.5 years in and it's working for us. We struggle with making too many things, because we're easily distracted and ooo shiny thing! and we like to try new things, but it's not too detrimental to us yet ...
Very helpful, thanks!
Fantastic video!
Valuable advice.
Your videos are a great education - thankyou
Glad you like them!
Thank you Ryan
I appreciate your Videos much 😊
I'm so glad!
Well said
Can't you just go to Baltimore to get more Raven fans???
Great video!!
Thanks, good tips, and yes, he's right, it's Torr - Tee - ah ah ah ah ah ah ah
Another Good video. It is Tortillas not Tartilla.😂😂😂😂
Really appreciate you watching the whole thing! And yes I now think Jeremy was right haha
could you explain how you built FRIO coolers/bags as a seg-way from your woodworking business? and how FRIO is growing into a thing? Its like George Lucas building Industrial Light and Magic and a bunch of other businesses out of his pursuits shooting movies.
IMO, SEO should be the biggest priority for any business starting out! The ROI is just incredible.
Good insight into what works and what does not. I've dabbled in social media marketing, but I'm small time (US only) and the returns just aren't there. Plus there is no way to compete with larger international companies on most things.
I do have a niche, like you, mine comes from personalized items. Although I want to build my company (which would take off if I could invest in it more) I am stuck only making so much or I lose my disability check.
Tortillas
I would say 1% of the people in this fast food society will wait that long to see it through. It’s taken me 5 years to basically have 0 advertisement funds. I had business cards made up on day one and gave out 100 out of 100 and that was 5 years ago
So are you saying this is a good way to market?
It's TORtillas, not TARtilles 🤣
It's tortillas.
I loved the first 5 videos I saw but after the TORTILLA debate I’m out. 😂 You owe every Mexican restaurant you went to growing up one chair/table/rotating shoe stand
(Editor Jeremy here) I TRIED TO TELL HIM!!
TORtillas
First
It's Tortillas. T-o-r
in America here and its definitely tor·tee·uh. google tortilla pronunciation and it will say it for you if you want verification.
