Marketing. The thing that most makers say they hate or they are terrible at. I feel this. Let's go through best practices, how you can be unique, and how you can stand out amongst the competition. Even if you go into a market with competition already, as a new comer to that market, you can not only see what others are doing wrong, but also, how to stand out. What will set you apart may vary across businesses, but it is imperative if you want to be successful. Topics to cover: Deepening Brand Identity Data-Driven Marketing Strategic Partnerships Service Expansion and Diversification Pricing, why it matters AND MORE!!! __________________________________ Do you have an idea you want to get off the ground?

Right to Repair is a BIG deal and 3D Printing is an industry where the "Fine I will just do it myself" kind of people will thrive. Giving control to repair back to the consumer turns the normal game of cat and mouse for parts around on the manufacturers, with some taking note, and others pushing back. 3D Printing shows that with a few hours or less on CAD, some filament and/or resin, you can solve a lot of problems around your house and feel empowered by not relying on companies to sell you the parts to do it. It is an awesome feeling, so lets talk about it! Topics to cover: Origins of Right to Repair and why they matter How 3D Printing naturally compliments Limitations of 3D Printing in repairing Intellectual Property Issues Sustainability Manufacturer pushback What can WE do to make a difference AND MORE!!! __________________________________ Do you have an idea you want to get off the ground?

This week we are joined by my father, Kenneth Posner for a WONDERFUL Father's Day Special! We will be discussing the impact of 3d printing in education! Some information about Ken: With over 30 years of professional experience, Kenneth has become a powerhouse in the College world, transforming schools to be leaders in student life. Winner of the regional Jim Scott Award in 2006, a prestigious higher education award, Ken has a track record of purposeful solutions to painful problems. Addressing the needs of students not just at his college of employment but also setting standards nationwide for what student life looks like on and off campus. Graduating from @MichiganStateU in 1980, and 1982 with his masters, and eventually his Ph.D from USF in 2016 in Higher Education, Dr. Posner, allegedly, bleeds Green and White. But no, seriously, he went to college and never left. Dedicating his life to helping others no matter where he may end up. Here is a snippet of what Ringling College had to say for his announcement: I am extremely pleased to announce that Dr. Ken Posner has joined the Student Life Department as Associate Dean of Students for Housing and Residence Life.
