This is a big one! I cracked the 45 minute mark with this podcast. There is a reason though, there’s a lot in this show with the main feature being an interview with Peter Harback, the co-owner with his wife of Cool Things, a website and retail store that sells “Cool Gadgets for Big Kids” (a toyshop!). Peter offers quite a good insight into his business so I expect you will enjoy this interview.
Also featured in the podcast is some music by a friend of mine, James McIntosh, who recently launched his own blog at Jameses.org. He provides the vocals and guitar on his track Perspicacity.
Enjoy!
Yaro, I really enjoyed your podcast. One thing I wanted to know was how much coolthings.com.au made from sales outside of Australia.
Hi Mike – I’m not sure if Peter would want to give you money specifics but he may comment on percentages – like how much business comes from overseas as a percentage of the whole. I’ll let him drop by and leave a comment though, it’s his biz after all!
Hi Mike,
Percentages wise is probably only 10 to 20 percent exported out of the country. Mostly going to New Zealand, US and the UK.
However I did send an order to Japan last month.
Hey Yaro, I loved this audio
I hope you do some more interviews, because those are my favourite podcasts. Hopefully you can interview me someday after I get my things together.
Keep ‘em coming
Hi Yaro, visited your website a few times and only just studied it, listened to your podcast. Good stuff, I liked hearing the specifics of things you and Mike have done. It would be cool to have a weekly session, I will definately tune in for the next one
