Starting a board game company with Jamey Stegmaier of Stonemaier Games / Starting Now Podcast
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- Today my guest is board game designer and entrepreneur Jamey Stegmaier of Stonemaier Games. Jamey's created or published some of the most successful board games of all time. Out of 100,000 tabletop games on Board Game Geek, he's published the 11th, 20th, and 21st most popular games, among others.
He's a prolific tabletop and board game designer, a wonderful guy, so I'm really excited to share this conversation with you.
In this episode Jamey and I talk all about the board game industry, how Stonemaier Games thrives while remaining small, why he no longer uses Kickstarter for his games, and how he continues to create an impressive amount of original content every week.

Thanks for the chat, Jeff! If any viewers have additional questions, I'm happy to answer below.
This just made our day. You are an inspiration for us. Esp. when we started designing and publishing games in India for Gen-Z and millennials. Thanks for all the content you create. Please do check-out www.dicetoylabs.com would love your feedback.
DUDE. Duuuuude. This show is... dude. You showed up in my rec's because NFT. But now I'm on your show, because you 'bout entrepreneurship. So.... dude, mad likes.
Oh man, I'm so glad you're digging the show! You just made my day! 🙌
Great podcast! I love that you have the video interview version as well! It's so nice to be able to actually put a face to the people talking. I love Stonemaier Games and the content Jamey shares with other aspiring game designers is pure gold!
Thanks so much! I wanted to change things up a bit with the video version of the show, despite being remote conversations, so it makes me happy to hear that you like it too!
Ive been researching board game design podcasts for a minute. This chat was very informative and had a nice conversational flow. Great work!!
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
Wow, looks like I picked a gerat episode to start on. Great poscast and I love the format. Jamey is awesome and you did a great job talking with him.
Great interview! Also, love the over the shoulder shot 👍🏻
Thanks so much! I try my best to make it as close to in person as possible :)
I am SO GLAD I happened upon this video. I've been working on a fantasy-themed board game called Season of Heroes, with my "company" H&H Games (my RUclips is primarily Plant-related, but I've been sharing some of the Season of Heroes promotional videos on there as well). I'm doing all the artwork for it (and man, is it artwork heavy), but being an artist, I'm at a bit of a loss about the financial/production side of things. I know I want to release it on Kickstarter to begin with, but that's all I know about the business side of the Board Game Industry, so I found this very helpful! Thank you for posting it!
I'm so glad to hear it was helpful! In terms of the pure business side of things (not board game specific), if there's anything I can do to help don't hesitate to reach out! :)
Great interview, Jeff. Your production value is really nice too.
Thanks! I’m glad you enjoyed it! :)
Great Interview! Very well produced and an amazing guest! Huge fan of Jamey's, so you get an auto sub!
Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed it!
Great podcast!
