Sharon Taylor, Senior Vice President of Podcast Strategy and Product Operations at Triton, discusses her career journey from hospitality management to podcasting. She joined Omny Studio in 2016, initially on a contract basis, and later becoming CEO. Sharon highlights the evolution of Omny Studio from a radio tool to a comprehensive podcast platform, and its acquisition by Triton. She emphasizes the importance of brand safety and suitability in podcast advertising, and introduces Sounder, a tool developed by Triton to enhance contextual analysis and ad targeting. Sharon also touches on the challenges and opportunities for Canadian podcasters, noting the need for a unified approach and diverse revenue streams.
We also spent some time discussing the power of mobility; she has moved on multiple occasions across numerous time zones. She’s currently living in my hometown of Montreal where the food is the best in Canada. Her favourite restaurant? Nyk’s Bistro on Bleury.
(Not to be confused with the landmark Chez Nick’s on Greene Avenue in Westmount) Take a date to Nyk’s, take your mother to Nick’s)
