We Were Nominated as a Top Industrial Design Podcast by Welp Magazine!

Posted on June 17, 2021

When our boss Kevin isn’t busy presenting entrepreneurial keynotes on the main stage, writing for Forbes, spearheading community-building events with Hollywood movie stars, participating in earth-shattering collabs, teaching at one of the top universities in Canada, or providing world-class product development services to our clients, you can find him hosting The Product Startup Podcast.

In fact, this invention development podcast is the number one podcast in our industry. It’s also one of Welp Magazine’s top industrial podcasts in 2021 – one of the top three podcasts, to be exact! If you haven’t heard them, Welp Magazine is an online information hub for all your business needs. They regularly write about various business software, office equipment, innovation, management, regulation, and risk.

The Product Startup Podcast was chosen by Welp Magazine as a Top Industrial Design Podcast in 2021.

The Product Startup Podcast

Listeners of this invention development podcast will be treated to the voice of our President and Founder, Kevin Mako. He regularly invites industry leaders with some really impressive pedigrees to share their entrepreneurial stories. Each guest, whether they’re a manager, inventor, or a founder, provides insights on how they launched their product business.

Indeed, you’ll learn about industrial design, product design, prototyping, 3D printing, additive manufacturing, product manufacturing, marketing, selling, patenting, logistics, product business scaling, and much more. We’re currently 80 episodes strong! But this is just the beginning!

Some of the latest episodes of our invention development podcast include some incredible guests. We recently had the pleasure of chatting with customer experience extraordinaire West Stringfellow and business growth expert Tom Patterson.

West Stringfellow was featured in Episode 77 a few weeks ago. In addition to being a former Senior Project Manager at Amazon and executive at Target, Paypal, Visa, and Rosetta Stone, he’s currently the CEO of HowDo, a website that provides free training and experiences for aspiring entrepreneurs. In this episode, West explains why you need to put the customer first in everything you do. 

Tom Patterson is a serial entrepreneur. Featured in episode 78, he owns several e-commerce brands, a manufacturing facility, and even his own e-commerce agency, Wknd Digital. In this episode, Tom shares his experience turning startups into businesses with nine-figure online sales. More specifically, he gives great advice on how to sell directly to consumers while building a product line in this special episode of our invention development podcast.
