Today on NOW and NEXT:
Happy SSNiversary to us!
Story Studio Network CEO and Co-founder Erin Trafford joins the show to talk about the fun we're having and her plans to reposition journalism and evolve SSN from a major market podcast production house to a new media company.
It was two years ago today, I sent my “Got time for a quick call” text to Erin. I already had four clients locked and loaded for a cool Roundtable series but was a bit shocked at how easily they agreed to this new branded podcast idea.
So, I did what all smart Dads would do. I reached out to my smartest daughter to test the concept.
And BIG BANG! SSN happened in the course of a 90 minute phone call
It was Erin, me, four brilliant “founding” creators/producers, Sarah Thorne, Dave Hardy, Lisa Taylor, Ujwal Arkalgud launching The NEXT NORMAL.And we pulled it all together with the exceptional Jaime Nickerson supporting us off the side of her desk:)
So, here we are 24 COVID months later. We’ve soared from one show in the “network” and 2.5 FTEs to a couple of dozen shows and a wonderfully talented team who make us better every day.
