Talkin' Shop: Crowdfunding & Community MeetUp w/ GIR's Samantha Rose

BackerKit is inviting you all to our brand new quarterly event series Talkin' Shop. We're bringing together creators, makers, and entrepreneurs within the crowdfunding and community patronage space to share stories and trade advice.

Featured Speaker:

GIR: Get It Right's founder and CEO Samantha Rose will share her GIR creative journey while detailing how to grow an idea until it's a finished product, and then introduce it to nationwide retail. She'll give priceless insight on how to navigate the rough waters along the way.

After the featured talk, attendees can choose between 1 of the following breakout sessions to roll up their sleeves and figure things out together!

Breakout Discussion (option 1)
Maybe Capital's founder and designer Dre Koval

It's hard to find the creative motivation to finish projects, and the real work happens before you even begin. Creating a clear vision, acknowledging your inspiration and making a plan you can build on are the key factors in directing your efforts and finishing projects. It's a journey of discovering yourself, finding your magic spark and declaring how you will share that with the world. Let's talk about how to get things started!
