An update from a service that's headed in the right direction.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1318
Welcome to Throwback Thursday / “Where are they now?” where we take an in-depth look at someone who’s story has evolved considerably since we first featured them. Last week we heard from Karin Newport in New Zealand, who creates and sells digital paintbrushes - an archetypal example of the new economy. Today, in our latest feature, we’ll hear from Lindsay Baublitz, one-half of the power duo behind Near & Deer, a couple that sells faux taxidermy! Listen to today's episode to hear Lindsay's updates...MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:
