    Episode 221 - Building a Community Around Your Business

    Episode 221 - Building a Community Around Your Business

    Today's guest is Daniel Shear, co-founder of Season's Yield, a bakery here in the Shenandoah Valley. We're chatting about how he and his wife built their business selling loaves of bread out of their house and it's evolution into Bread Days, a bi-weekly experience that hundreds, sometimes up to 1,000, people attend at their farm. As we chatted, I couldn't help but reflect that so much of what they're doing now, and the experience they provide, may not have ever happened, had they not done things the way they did them. They were able to steward what they had, start small, and by doing that they eventually created an experience that people seek after here in Virginia.

    Lately we've been receiving a lot of questions about designing and selling Showit templates, so I roped Krista into doing a quick, 20 minute, q+a style podcast episode with me while I asked her some of the questions.

    If you're thinking about becoming a designer or if you're already a designer and you want to start designing and selling Showit website templates, this is a great place to start. We cover what you need to get started, helpful Showit resources, our favorite ecommerce platforms for actually selling templates, where Krista designs templates and some of her favorite design related tools, and what kinds of support we offer for template sales.
