Happy Juneteenth to all my listeners!

Drew Brucker (VP of Growth at LASSO, first marketing hire) has been a longtime listener of the podcast and he's one of the people that's given me some great feedback about the show. I decided to invite him on to talk about what he's been building, creative marketing plays, and more.

Prior to LASSO, Drew was the first marketing hire at Fullsteam (a tech payments company) and prior to that he was Head of Brand and Digital at Rubicon (had a successful unicorn exit).

About LASSO:

Founded in 2014, based out of Nashville, 80 people
Funding: Series A ($7.5M total)
Description: all-in-one project and workforce management platform where event and entertainment companies work.

In this episode we talk about:

Unpacking this simple equation: Marketing = Creative + Revenue and what does a bowl of cereal have to do with it;

What does "creative" mean to you;
