  • For more than two decades, Suzi Watford has been using an extraordinary ability not often found in the news industry: sparking new ideas that turn into revenue-driving realities.

    After spending close to seven years working at News UK with roles in partnerships, sales, and marketing, Suzi joined The Wall Street Journal as their CMO back in 2014. In April of this year, Suzi became EVP, Consumer, a newly created role charged with creating a stronger Dow Jones “ecosystem”––fostering upselling, cross-selling, and bundling opportunities within their existing portfolio––as well as helping to build a Dow Jones platform complete with new products and services.

    On the latest episode of The Business of Marketing Podcast, Adweek’s chief innovation officer, Toby Daniels, sits down with Suzi to discuss her career journey in the world of news, the ever-evolving newspaper business, The Wall Street Journals’ strategic pivot towards digital, and how she is working collaboratively within the organization to grow Dow Jones’ digital subscription businesses.

    They also talked about the brand’s commitment to advancing news literacy and the launch of “Trust Your Decisions,” a new brand platform and campaign designed to reinforce the Journal’s position as the definitive source of truth for decision-makers.

    Throughout Season 2 of the podcast, we will be spotlighting a number of different startups that have participated in SAP.iO’s foundries programs. During this episode, you will hear from Ashley Crowder, Co-Founder and CEO at VNTANA, a SaaS platform that makes 3D asset production and distribution fast and scalable for apparel, footwear and furniture. Learn how they worked with SAP to transform their business, the major obstacles they faced as a startup in the 3D space, and how they are leveraging technology to drive their growth.
