Guest: Capture Your Flag's Erik Michielsen
Today's guest is Mike's old research industry friend, Erik Michielsen. Unlike Mike, Erik escaped the research business to launch a 'near-peer' career learning and education resource company.
Erik talks about what he has learned launching a content company, his innovative effort to capture the stories of people early in their careers and over time, how this "longitudinal" approach to storytelling is a true differentiator in the Buzzfeed era, and he talks about how packaging up his content in different ways as he experiments with different forms of monetization.
