November 15, 2018 Haley Bohon – SkillPop
All of us wish we knew how to do "cool stuff" -- like create a piece of art, homemade wreaths... or digital marketing with social media. But who has time for 8 weeks of classes? Not us. But we CAN set aside two or three hours for an introduction that gets us going, and that's where SkillPop comes in.

The wildly popular classes are perfect for busy professionals or parents who have young families -- because they teach a cool skill in just a couple of hours. Our guest on BrandBuilders is the woman behind this incredible concept, which has grown so quickly in 3 years that it's now offered in 5 cities... and the list of offerings is growing too. Welcome Haley Bohon, founder and CEO of SkillPop.

Have you ever walked into a museum or trade show and been bowled over by the "wow" factor of a display or a booth, and thought "I'd like to meet the artist who created THAT"? Well, we've got one of them here with us today.
