“To see artists hold their own vinyl for the 1st time is an emotional moment where they truly feel like they’ve made it.” Don't miss @Caren's, founder of @goldrushvinyl, remarkable journey through the music industry. Listen now on @storyinabottle: https://t.co/jqjuMV0qyW

@AdamSinger Same here, my first years in entry level marketing were so formative and fun. In 20 years of hiring, I’ve observed (not researched) that Millennials seem more interested in titles and fulfillment and Gen Z in compensation and flexibility. Read #Zconomy and started to see why

.@Caren Kelleher helped launch Google Music, but a presentation she gave struck a chord and led her to start Gold Rush Vinyl.

@DylanDreyerNBC shares the story.

@nickwildheaven Thanks for taking an early bet on me and showing me the ropes, Nick. I'm so grateful for you and your family.

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

So happy to be back with my @RecordingAcad community. Let’s go, y’all.

@mekkaokereke @Carnage4Life First-hand experience: this internal “let the best product win” approach is a waste of time, talent and money. Companies assume that healthy competition will inspire innovation; but more often it creates frustration for employees and confusion for customers

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

When I was applying for SBA loans for my business, the lender advised I take out new credit cards first to increase my credit score. It felt irresponsible.

Then he told me,"You're worth nothing to no one unless you owe something to someone," and I think about that all the time.

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

It's back-to-school and I'm reminded of how ridiculous it was that (in order to graduate college) I had to take 4 semesters of gym, but not a single class on personal finance?! Are there any universities that require a 1-credit course like this ("Adulting 101")?

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

It was so special getting to meet you @Weegee and to be a part of VINYL NATION!

[Kevin Smokler @Weegee]

We at VINYL NATION were so fortunate to get to know @Caren And her company @goldrushvinyl while filming our movie. Based in Austin, Caren runs one of the nimblest, accurate pressing plants in America.

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

This is my favorite @RecordingAcad event each year. I love meeting the next generation of music industry leaders and spending the day with my friends at @txmusicoffice @TuneCore @C3Concerts @aztecarecords and more.

[Texas Music Office @txmusicoffice]

Big thanks to the @RecordingAcad for inviting the TMO to be a part of #GrammyInTheSchools at @ManorSeniorHS today!

@JasonIsbell 👋 It me.

[Harvard Business School @HarvardHBS]

"Whenever you have demand exceeding supply, particularly for a cultural product or a product that’s seen as art, that often increases demand even more."

Professor @ryanlraffaelli and @Caren (MBA 2010) discuss vinyl shortages and its renaissance. https://t.co/BhnMevlz6H

[Ryan Raffaelli @ryanlraffaelli]

Why do some old technologies stick around? My interview with @Harvard Gazette and @HarvardHBS alum @Caren about the vinyl record renaissance. [#technology_reemergence] https://t.co/nvSGdufPMz

[Caren Kelleher @Caren]

@LauraJaneGrace We can help at Gold Rush Vinyl in Austin. More pressing machines being installed in a few weeks to help with the demand. https://t.co/3tiFc7iRQE
