EP. 70: Racquet Magazine publisher Caitlin Thompson, how do you run a successful print publication?
Caitlin Thompson is the publisher and co-founder of Racquet, a print quarterly magazine as well as a tennis-lifestyle and media company. She's also the host of "The Main Draw" and Racquet Magazine podcasts, along with 6-time Grand Slam Champion Rennae Stubbs. She's been the Content Director for podcast platform Acast, a Development Executive at WNYC, where she ran the precursor to WNYC Studios, and held digital and multimedia roles at TIME, the Washington Post and in public television.
In this episode of How Do You Do? Podcast, Ben asks Caitlin to share what inspired her to co-found a print publication in a digital age, how she's helping foster a love of tennis and its culture in avid fans and recreational players alike, creative ways she's introducing readers to professional players (i.e. Stefanos Tsitsipas' first published photo collection, Naomi Osaka guest editing an issue), and more!
