#2005 Shorty Awards Creator

Startup Stories - Mixergy - A podcast by Andrew Warner - Fridays

I met today’s guest at a podcasting conference in Las Vegas 10 years ago when no one even knew what podcasting was. Since then I’ve never missed an episode of his show Venture Voice which he put on hold for a decade while building his other businesses, but just relaunched. But he’s gone on to do amazing things including creating The Oscars of social media, The Shorty Awards, and Muck Rack. I invited him on to talk about all of it. Gregory Galant is the creator of the Short Awards and founder of Muck Rack where you can find journalists, get press for your story, monitor the news and report on the impact of your PR.
