Welcome back to Found, where we get the stories behind startups.
this week Becca I traveled solo with Carly Zakin and Danielle Weisberg, co-founders and co-CEOs of theSkimm, a digital media company that delivers news through a newsletter targeting millennial women. Zakin and Weisberg talked about the market gap they wanted Skimm to fill. They also talked about:
- A bumpy roller coaster ride in the digital media landscape over the past decade.
- What it was like pitching a female-focused product to male venture capitalists.
- Why they decided to become co-CEOs and why they think the strategy is right for them.
