Tim Huelskamp, Co-Founder & CEO of 1440, shares how his company puts humans first while delivering news without motives with our president, Steve Gilman.
The truth is — the news landscape is a mess. Unless you have hours to sift through sources and fact-check statements, you’re not likely to find the news you want that isn’t filtered behind emotions or opinions from the presenters. Enter Tim Huelskamp and 1440, a daily newsletter dedicated to keeping Americans informed about the news, without motives.
Human first, transparency, accountability, and relentless curiosity. These are the standards that define 1440. Beginning as an email that was sent to 78 people, the newsletter has exploded to having 4 million subscribers and counting, and those standards have remained. Because for Tim, it’s not about growing as big as possible as fast as possible, it’s about putting people first and building a brand for the long term. In this episode, Tim shares the story of how 1440 came to be, the impact taking care of your team has on your customers, and how his company is helping redefine the news landscape.
And why is it called 1440? You’ll have to listen to find out.
