The Other Web

Welcome to the other web. Our guest today is Kofi Annan - not the one that led the UN for 8 years - I was confused too, at first - but a brand strategist who worked for Ogilvy, Sachi and Sachi, and dozens of amazing brands around the world. Hopefully, Kofi can help us understand the voodoo that is branding. Or at the very least, tell us what we've been doing wrong all this time.

This is a conversation I've been waiting for for a very long time. Drew Steigerwald is the editor in chief of 1440 - a daily news newsletter with 3 million subscribers and an astonishing 60% open rate.

The unique thing about this conversation is that Drew and I are both working on the exact same problem - we don't like the fact that people consume low-quality news, and we want to help people consume higher quality information, with a focus on more facts and less partisanship. We also have similar-size audiences - 1440 has 3m subscribers, and the Otherweb has 5.6m.

But at the same time, we're going about the problem in a completely different way. 1440 uses the old-school tools of meticulous editorial review and original writing, whereas the Otherweb uses the high-tech approach of software scraping, AI models and recommendation systems.

I think you'll all enjoy hearing a completely different perspective on this, which in my view - still achieves this goal quite admirably. I encourage everyone to check out 1440's newsletter at join1440.com - they are certainly a force for good, and while I obviously prefer our own product, I am still subscribed to 1440 and love what they're doing.
