Allison Statter on Leaving the Security of a Family Business


Listen Later

Most nepo babies deny the privileges afforded to them by their parents. Allison Statter isn’t one of them. She’s never been shy about having entertainment industry titans for parents, or about being Kim Kardashian’s lifelong BFF. But after working at her dad’s management company for 17 years, people started whispering about her legitimacy. To prove she could make it on her own, Allison kissed job security goodbye and launched her own entertainment marketing agency, Blended Strategy Group. Talk about a full 180.


In this episode of 9 to 5ish, Allison shares: 


  • A fact about Kim K that most people don’t know 
  • How her parent’s working relationship stayed strong despite separating multiple times
  • How a temporary 2-week stint at her dad’s company turned in 17-year long career 
  • Why the stakes are so much higher working in a family business 
  • How she’s learned more launching a company than she has her entire career
