We’ve heard the term Maker and Maker Culture but what does that mean. Local Innovator and Maker Joey Loman will be sharing his insights on the Maker Culture. What does it mean to be aMaker and how you can get started. Sign up here http://www.meetup.com/Greenville-Beer-and-Napkins-Community-of-Growth/events/217485212/
If you like off-the-wall ideas, you should talk to Joey Loman because he’s full of them. As a somewhat reclusive Renaissance man from Kansas City, Missouri, he’s a television producer by day and an entrepreneur-inventor by night. He’s an avid musician and serves on the board of the Greenville music venue, The Channel. His most recent adventure is hatching the Upstate Makers Guild, an eclectic assembly of artists, engineers, and hobbyists who love making things. Joey Loman is a serial entrepreneur and has been an investor, founder, or partner in at least 14 small business startups. In his spare time he tends a small gourd garden with the dream of creating calabash gourd smoking pipes. He also likes grapes, solid and liquid derivatives of grapes, distillations of grape fluids, and grape flavored food products.
This is a precursor to his talk in December 9th.

Got dreams? Take action. Oh, but where to begin?
We’re all familiar with the quotes about taking action, but how do we move
beyond the dreaming stage of an idea to the action stage? How do we get that
seed to geminate; how do we transform that dream to a living thing in which we
live, so that (technically speaking) we are living in our dream?
Way too simple, right? Yes. Exactly! Keep it simple and you will begin—you will take that first step and you will make things happen. Keep a child-like desire TO DO, instead of the learned habit of waiting for everything to be perfect before you begin. The people who don’t wait for that perfection are too busy making things happen. Join them. I will, too.
