14yrs of corporate sponsorship is almost unheard of. Congratulations to both of you for being able to maintain a professional relationship that benefitted both parties for so long.

[CaLbob]

Such a class act. Any brand would be lucky to work with you. Excited for your next chapter!!

[JackmanWorks]

Powermatic started sponsoring you while I was still in high school, that's wild. Also, I'd call that a massive success even if it has ended.

[qmoonwalker]

Sorry they are not sponsoring you any longer, but I must say this is a very professional approach to notifying your subscribers.

A truly professional 'break-up announcement"... nicely done!
I watched with interest after recently contacting the marketing department at Powermatic with a collaboration inquiry about their new... well, let me just say one of their shop machines... that I'm considering for the NLC shop. It was a bit humbling to be basically blown off by them. I figured it had to do with channel size or lack of social media exposure or that they just had bigger fish to fry. After hearing your enthusiasm to be free to pick, choose and comment about machines from other brands I'm relieved for not getting attached by 'golden handcuffs'.
So thanks for sharing your history with the brand with respect and appreciation and including 'the rest of the story'... enjoy your newfound freedom!
Best,
Matt

Powermatic has excellent tools but this is clearly their loss! You are very professional and I enjoy the sense of humor that comes along with your informative videos.

Even before we started our channel, we always loved hearing your unique perspective on tools, sponsorships, and brand deals! Your transparency and level-headed approach gave us trustworthy reference points when making a purchasing decision. Thanks for being you!

I was more worried that the sponsorship ending meant they wanted all of their product back. Happy that you don’t have to buy everything new. It’s refreshing to see a content creator be so open and honest, and I think that’s why a lot of us are here. You’re a class act Mark, and I’ll always be a fan no matter whose tools you’re using.

Honestly, if it weren’t for YouTube and woodworking content creators like you, I would have no clue who Powermatic is.

Your attitude is refreshing. Most people would have reacted with hate and discontent. Your attitude of appreciation really impresses me. I hope it has others. I have been a long time watcher of yours and look ever forward to the next video from you. Thanks.

I just discovered your channel this passed year and let me say, you make the most complicated projects seem like I could do them with your calm demeanor and just chill attitude. Nothing fancy or flashy. I am a family man myself and its awesome to see another guy just making it in the world.

What I learned from this is Marc spends a lot of time staring at walls

[jamiejones]

What a great run! A sponsorship of fourteen years has got to be something to brag about today! I've enjoyed your content for years, so please maintain that PMA ( positive mental attitude ), continue to educate and inspire!

[maybepodcast]

Wow, professionalism and appreciation on YouTube? My heart grew three sizes that day.

[MrWaffle]

The amount of knowledge and positive vibes you've passed along in 14 years is priceless

[BrianSolomon]

Good job not burning a bridge...so many people thrive on being vindictive. Classy recap of the facts...blessings to you and yours!

[chrisshannonmoeller]

Looking forward to your future adventures. This was a very classy way to part ways with a major sponsor. Thank you!

[nwns]

You young man are to be commended because you understand respect for ALL of us. As long as I've watched, you treat people with respect, even novices that you could blow off but you don't and I know as the question I asked was truly pathetic but you told me to watch certain videos and ask if I had more questions. Thank you! This is one of those opportunities when no one is watching but you still do the right thing!

[treywalker]

Class act. This reaction to the loss of a sponsor can be applied to so many things that change throughout life. Be thankful for the good. Don't dwell on what might be perceived as bad, and move on. Also, thanks for letting us know.

Just found channel. Your professionalism compelled me to Subscribe. I am a beginner woodworker and look forward to learning from your channel and I will certainly look into your other teaching forums. I look forward to a great year in 2022.
