Ruling The Woodworking Game with Mark Robertson

On this episode, host Ethan Abramson sits down with Mark Robertson, owner of the Texas based furniture company Mark The Builder


We could spend an entire episode talking with Mark about his successful furniture company, how he's booked out for months, how he keeps his customer satisfaction high, how he is so in demand that he has to turn away business. But, for this episode, we are focusing mostly on how he is running a full time woodworking business and also working a full time other job at the same time. 


This is a topic that has been brought up in a lot of episodes, so I wanted to sit down with Mark and talk with someone who is living this double life daily, and learn from him about the pros and cons of this lifestyle and how he makes it work. 


Follow along as we talk about how he juggles two full time jobs, how he deals with clients expectations, his thoughts on being a black owned furniture business, and how he is growing his company, his way.
