    Scott Goodson (StrawberryFrog) & Sherry Graziano (Truist) | Teamwork Builds Great Partnerships

    Spring is time for rebirth and renewal…and today’s episode is about a relationship between a client and an agency that embodies continual rebirth and renewal. Jim's guests this week are Sherry Graziano, the EVP, Head of Digital, Client Experience & Marketing at Truist Bank, and Scott Goodson, the CEO and Founder of ad agency StrawberryFrog. Sherry and Scott are longtime partners at Truist, a top 10 US bank headquartered in Charlotte, NC. Truist has a purpose to inspire and build better lives and communities–and they mean that, as you will hear through Sherry and Scott’s stories. Sherry has been at Truist since 2011; she was part of SunTrust, which became Truist after SunTrust’s merger with BB&T. Scott and his agency have been working with Truist for many years. Many brands switch agencies frequently–this is a story of a client and agency who have learned to work together over the years, and thus discovered the magic of teamwork with a common purpose, common objectives, and a shared ambition. Tune in for a conversation on the playbook for a successful partnership! This week's episode is brought to you by StrawberryFrog and Deloitte.

    Julie Haddon (NWSL) | Reshaping the Future of Women's Soccer

    This month marks the opening of a new season for the red-hot NWSL–The National Women's Soccer League. Jim's this week is the Chief Marketing and Commercial Officer of the NWSL, Julie Haddon. Jim has known Julie for many years, going back to her years at the NFL as VP of Global Brand and consumer marketing, before joining the NWSL as its first-ever CMO. Great CMOs are growth drivers, and Julie has indeed done that with her team. Julie has been CMO for about 2.5 years and the growth rate is staggering; double the number of fans in attendance at matches; two new teams joining the league with more coming; a four-year media deal worth $240 million–the previous media deal was for three years for $4.5 million. And team valuations are increasing massively. Julie was a journalism major years ago at Indiana University in Bloomington, before launching a career in tech & entertainment that is epic: Dreamworks Animation, eBay, PayPal, Twitter, Zynga, Sofi, the NFL, and now the NWSL. Tune in for a conversation with a CMO who had a vision six years ago in France that she could help shape the future of women's soccer. --- This week's episode is brought to you by StrawberryFrog, Deloitte and Adobe.

    Nicole Parlapiano (Tubi) | Swing Big on Brand Building

    Jim's guest this week is Nicole Parlapiano, the Chief Marketing Officer of Tubi, and the woman behind so much of the strategy and innovation that sets Tubi apart from its competitors. When we launched this podcast in 2019, no one had heard of Tubi. Now this eleven-year-old brand seems to be everywhere: streaming the 2025 Super Bowl, standing out among Super Bowl advertisers the past few years, and popping up all over social media. Tubi–which is the most watched free TV and streaming service in the US–has an active fan base of about 100 million monthly users. Nicole has been at Tubi almost three years, and despite the steep growth numbers, seems to be just getting started. Before Tubi, Nicole has had an eclectic career journey, with time at Tinder, WeWork, Vayner, and eharmony. Raised in a blue-colar family outside New York City, Nicole went on to Fordham for her undergraduate degree and later earned her MBA at night at USC. Tune in for Jim's conversation with a CMO who has a self-described endless appetite for risk. --- This week's episode is brought to you by Strawberry Frog, Deloitte and Adobe.
