In this episode, we chat with Tyler Shaheen, the Southern Craftsman, about his journey in starting and growing a woodworking business. Tyler began by building furniture for his wife and selling his creations on Facebook. Now, with a commercial shop and four full-time employees, he focuses on stabilizing his business and achieving consistent income.
We discuss Tyler’s Facebook advertising strategy, targeting major cities within a two-hour radius, and delve into the logistics and challenges of shipping furniture, including costs, delivery services, and the importance of a good broker.
Our conversation covers the complexities of handling commercial projects, emphasizing the need for infrastructure, professionalism, and navigating client relationships. We also highlight the importance of work-life balance, prioritizing personal time, and fostering a positive work environment.
Tyler shares his experiences with content creation, from using it to sell furniture to building a separate brand, and his plans for expanding on YouTube. We conclude by discussing the challenges and rewards of running a business and finding your own path.
