Mitra is one of our special guests speaking at skucon on January 7th, where we’ll talk further about How to Create Merchandise Experiences That Connect and in today’s episode we talk about building iconic brands, licensing, creating high-demand merch experiences and we chat all around this intersection of art and commerce.

It is because of you, our skummunity, that we set out to create an outstanding skucamp 2020 merchandise collection, partnering with 9 different suppliers, despite the event postponement.

Joel Antymniuk is the owner of Motif Marketing located in Saskatoon. Growing up, he always possessed an entrepreneurial spirit, before taking the leap to start MOTIF in 2016, Joel worked in the industry for six years.

We talk with Joe Zangrili and Lucas Guariglia of Rowboat Creative about how they are using merch and e-commerce to give back, forge new relationships while keeping their dream alive.

Lucas Guariglia and Joe Zangrilli started Rowboat Creative in a basement in Chicago, that would eventually grow to over 60,000 square feet.
