Josh Band is an entrepreneur who is a professional baseball player. He said, “I need to make some money on the side, so you know what I’m going to do? I’m going to create a box of baseball products to send to people but only if they commit to getting it every month and pay me for a subscription to it.”

I want to find out why are people subscribing to something like this and why Josh has to curate these things for customers.

Josh Band is the founder of Plate Crate, a subscription service that delivers a box of baseball gear monthly.
