Episode Summary
 
Will Sampson, editor of FDMC and Woodworking Network, talks about how many woodworking businesses hurt themselves by not taking advantage of a wealth of information resources. His guest on the program is Amanda Conger, executive director of the CMA, talking about the CMA Benchmark Survey results and the profile they paint about small to medium size woodworking shops.
 
The Cabinet Makers Association was formed in 1998 by a group of custom cabinetmakers who saw a need for a professional organization to serve small- to mid-size woodworking shops in the United States and Canada.
