Longevity in any business is something to celebrate, but when a media company can successfully evolve through several decades of seismic shifts, it’s also a huge lesson in the art of pivoting. Today’s guest has navigated through 41 years of change and his company has come through stronger than ever.
We’re sitting down with Andy Goldberg, CEO of PCH Media. Andy is leading PCH’s multi-year transformation as the company continues to pivot from direct-to-consumer retail towards an identity and data-driven advertising business. This includes a concerted effort to attract and hire top media talent to align with the company’s new focus. The company is aimed at creating incremental shareholder value based on PCH’s unique value exchange and unparalleled ability to generate peer audience authentication, permission first-party data, and tremendous user engagement.
Andy has led the company through several successful evolutions via acquisitions in the online search, casual games, and mobile advertising markets. In addition to being CEO, he’s also Chairman of the Board of Directors and a past member of the Board of Directors and Executive Committee of the Direct Marketing Association.
Recognized for excellence in the industry, Andy has been honored with the Silver Apple Award from the Direct Marketing Club of New York. He earned a BS in Marketing from the Wharton School at UPenn.
