#24: Cassandra Cummings, Founder & CEO of August Nine, on Product Management, Content Strategy, and Growing a Community

Cassandra Cummings is the Founder and CEO of August Nine, a technology led creative company that designs brand experiences across social media, content and community. She got her start in marketing in the gaming industry, and moved on to lead content and event production for Splash! Animals, an award winning live art show featured at TEDx and Downtown Disney.

After graduating in Global Business from Cal State San Marcos, she moved to Spain to learn a new culture, and launch her career in tech. There, she became founding member of the marketing team at Product School, where she hosted 100 online events for 50,000 people with speakers from Google, LinkedIn, Twitter, Slack, Amazon and more.

Her true passions are traveling, food and art which were combined during her seven months in Amsterdam, where she was often found riding her bike while juggling a chocolate croissant and a gallery pass.

In this episode of the Just Go Grind Podcast we discuss how to break in and succeed in product management, how to create an effective content strategy for your business, how Cassandra decided to launch her digital agency, and much more!
