Today Quinn discusses her experience working with SnapChat, back in the day when event stories were a thing. Although SnapChat has changed quite drastically since then, some of the old ideas they left behind might just be an opportunity for someone else to use—because it was genius.

Monday Nov 23, 2020
Monday Nov 23, 2020
Today we discuss the future of live product launches, which was inspired by a couple of recent online launches that blew us away. The first: Apple's "One Last Thing" video. The second: Gordon Murray's T50 Debut. We go into how companies used to produce product launches in the "old world" and how this year's disruptions will likely reshape the way companies announce new product debuts moving forward—for the better.
