Description

Once a music magazine that competed with Rolling Stone to define cool in the pre-internet era, Spin is no longer really a magazine. Yes, it has brought the magazine (and Bob Guccione Jr) back, but Spin is an IP company now. It puts on Spin Sessions events, sells t-shirts at Urban Outfitters, licenses its archive for streaming projects, and runs a record label with Randy Jackson. CEO Jimmy Hutcheson explains how a magazine brand has moved on to become a cultural brand that exerts influence (and monetizes) beyond its pages.
