The One Where They Talk Shop With Bill Burkel
from Off the Cut Podcast · host Eric Spencley, Zac Builds and Deric Jennings
Another week in the shop and another episode of the Off The Cut Podcast, we welcome special guest and sponsor Bill Burkel from WTB Woodworking. We dive deep into Bill's journey, from starting a small Etsy business to opening a full-fledged retail store and showroom in under 10 years. We discuss the business struggles he's faced along the way, including a significant amount of online fraud and the unexpected logistics of sourcing and processing his own lumber(apparently some people are just giving it away for free!). Bill also gives us a sneak peek into his upcoming one-year anniversary event, detailing the special giveaways and demos planned. It’s a great episode filled with honest stories about the realities of running a small woodworking business.Got a question that you want us to answer?
