Hey everybody and welcome to Episode 3 of Certified Comic Talk, the podcast that helps YOU become a better comic-preneur TODAY!
Apparently booking guests and syncing calendars to record a podcast episode is more challenging than I anticipated, so I’m flying solo on today’s show and I’m going to take you allllll the waaaaaayy back….to last year.
To March and April of 2017 to be precise. Those are the first two months that the Certified Comic Shop officially became a thing. During the show I’m going to talk about these first two months extensively and what it was like starting an online comic shop.
Enjoy The Show!

HELP ME SPREAD THE WORD
Launching a brand-new podcast isn’t easy. For it to be discovered by its intended audience, it really helps if the show has a steady flow of reviews and ratings on iTunes. It would mean the world to me if you went over to iTunes and left a rating and review for the podcast.
