The Consumer VC episode 134 with Lindsay Kaplan, co-founder of Chief

Hey There,

Our guest today on The Consumer VC podcast is Lindsay Kaplan, co-founder of Chief. Chief is a private network focused on connecting and supporting women leaders. Previously, she was part of Casper’s founding team and led communications and brand engagement.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • What it was like scaling Casper

  • What led her to think about starting a professional network for women

  • Who Chief is for and what focus really means

  • Pivoting to digital during COVID and the opportunities it presented

  • The difference between raising a seed round vs. Series A

  • Why she decided to become a for-profit entity instead of a non profit organization

If you ever wanted to learn about the inner-workings of professional networks, this is the episode for you. It’s the first of its kind for the podcast and was such a fun, engaging conversation.

You can also listen on Apple Podcasts Here, Spotify Here and other podcast distribution channels.

Thank you Mike Duda for the introduction and appreciate you all listening!
