Starting a business with your family on board is harder than it looks. Here's how my wife and I are working through it. This week, I'm stepping back from the shop to talk about something that doesn't get discussed enough: getting your spouse or partner aligned on money before you start a maker business. I walk through where my wife and I land differently on finances, why I'm treating a charcuterie board idea as a trial run instead of a main product, and how I'm thinking through local craft fairs versus online selling. I also get honest about the timeline for actually making money. 00:00 Starting a Woodworking Business 02:21 Choosing a First Product 04:59 Selling Locally 06:24 Building a Financial Foundation 07:18 Documenting the Maker Dad Journey 10:17 Setting Goals for Business Development 🔗 LINKS Website: https://themakerdad.com Patreon: -https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheMakerDad Discord: -https://discord.gg/xDpzcugFws Apple Podcasts: -https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1881396004 Spotify: -https://open.spotify.com/show/5vvoiC3ccHFG7HWt3mWxUH
