Episode description

In this episode I talk with Raechal and Adam from Makers Challenge Central about how the challenge got started, the future of the Makers Challenge Central, and everything in between. Raechal started the challenge by collaborating with a few other makers on an Anna White design, each with their own unique spin, which ended with Anna judging the finished projects; that spun off into multiple different challenges under the Makers Challenge Central umbrella as she brought Adam on board. 

Since then, the two of them have kept busy with the various challenges throughout the year and have landed spots on television and published articles in magazines.  The two of them have a vast knowledge on both sides of running a small business and representing other brands, both large and small.  

You will NOT want to miss the Patreon After Show if you're interested in working with brands, because both Adam and Raechal represent different brands and have a unique perspective on what brands are looking for.
