Forget Black Friday, 3D Print Your Way to Holiday Gifts with Vicky Somma of TGAW

3D Printing is creating a whole new economy of entrepreneurs starting side businesses that make and sell unique products. With the help of marketplaces like Etsy and Shapeways, discerning consumers are being connected with makers to find more personal and unique gifts. With the holiday shopping season in full swing, in this WTFFF?! episode Tom and Tracy have an in-depth discussion with Vicky Somma, 3D Print entrepreneur, about how she got into 3D Printing with free CAD tools and service bureaus, but has grown a meaningful business selling her 3D print designs at craft shows, Shapeways, and Etsy. Her experience and path to success is a great case study for any entrepreneurial minded maker. We also cover what is working best for each of us to market and promote our products or business, so we let this one go a little long, but it is worth it.
