Troy Bungart is a connector and that became very quickly evident to me during the course of our conversation. He runs two Etsy shops, Burl Chaser where he sells pottery tool and handmade brushes and Troy Bungart Studios where he sells ceramic and fine art products.

We talk about how Troy has parlayed his education in photography into his Etsy businesses and also about how he grows his network and community of potters and artists, not just for advancing in business but also as a way of contributing, teaching, and giving back.

I hope from what he shares you will also start thinking about ways that you can make genuine connections within your community and come out from your craft room or studio and from behind your computer to network and create similar authentic relationships.
