Every creative professional knows the power of a before and after.  It’s a classic transformation arc - whether it’s a renovation, glow up, or an old-fashioned makeover. But reinvention doesn’t just apply to products or spaces. It also holds true for our lives and our careers. 

The Market Makers is a new weekly podcast from ANDMORE, hosted by CEO Jon Pertchik. Each episode pulls back the curtain on the people shaping the worlds of design, furniture, home, and lifestyle, exploring how they built their brands, found their unique style, and how markets and community are central to their work. 

You’ll hear how industry icons like Thom Filicia got his big break, how designer Anita Yokota swapped the therapy office for the design studio, and how heritage leaders like Robert H. Spilman Jr. of Bassett Furniture continue to build a lasting brand.

Make sure you’re following The Market Makers for more stories of transformation from the people shaping how we live, work, and gather.
