15: From Idea to Product

Today we're catching up with Dennis Hensley and the hilarious card game that he co-created called You Don't Know My Life. If you've been listening to the bonus episodes of this podcast, you've been hearing a series of coaching sessions between Dennis and me where we've talked about his creation of the game and the tweaks and iterations that he and his partner, Jeb Havens, were making to it. Those coaching sessions ended just as they were figuring out how to raise the initial funds they would need to place the production order for their first batch of games. A lot of unpredictable things have happened between May of 2018 and now – including a global pandemic – and I think you will find this next chapter of Dennis' story fun and inspiring, especially if you are interested in bringing an idea for a physical product to market. ------------------------ Host: Kristine Oller Guest: Dennis Hensley / game: You Don't Know My Life / podcast: Dennis Anyone?
