Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams Home Furnishings: Mitchell Gold and Bob Williams

Hey, really quick before we start the show, did you know that how I built this is also a book? Well, it's now out in paperback and available wherever books are sold. So check it out. How I built this? The book.

Now to the show. I went to them and said, Uh you know, we're just starting and I said, You know, I'm being open with you, these are big orders. I gotta buy a lot of materials, I can't necessarily get the credit for it. Could you pay us in fifteen days from the day we ship it? So it was like a juggling act, you would basically get the raw materials. And

Wait for your payment to come from pennies and levits and then pay your suppliers. Yeah, it's funny you use that term because I always thought that on my income tax where it says occupation I was gonna put down juggler. 'Cause it was always juggling stuff. Welcome to How I Built This, a show about innovators, entrepreneurs, idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript, segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.

10 free credits is 10 episodes like this one a month. Episodes nobody has transcribed yet cost their length in hours, because we have to actually transcribe them.
