Blockworks CEO Jason Yanowitz discusses how Blockworks has evolved the company from an events business to podcast network to news provider to becoming a data and information play with media, events and franchises feeding the core data and research business. This kind of shift is hard to pull off. Among the issues we discuss:

1. Using podcasts for broad reach and affinity
2. News as a credibility driver
3. Pulling back on B2C events to focus on B2B
4. Using media to drive “negative CAC” for information services
5. Implementing a “house of brands” strategy
