What does it really mean to build a business where purpose and profit don't just coexist—but actively fuel each other? Can you scale without selling out, especially in a creative industry being disrupted by AI? In this episode, Lindsay speaks with Kakul Srivastava, CEO of Splice, a leading platform used by music creators worldwide. Drawing from her experience at values-driven companies like Flickr and GitHub, Kakul shares how she leads with clarity, protects artistic integrity in the age of AI, and makes space for creativity in both product and culture. This conversation explores what it really takes to build a purpose-centered business that scales without losing its soul. You'll hear them discuss: How Splice's subscription model creates mutual accountability with users and reinforces the company's commitment to quality and trust Why Kakul and her team drew a clear ethical line when integrating AI - training only on content they have rights to, out of deep respect for creators What makes music a uniquely visceral art form, and how it shapes the raw, emotional nature of the music creators Splice serves How Kakul leads with care, high standards, and an obsession with data - not for metrics alone, but as signals of customer needs and behaviors The identity struggle many artists face balancing creativity with commercial demands, and how Splice supports both personal expression and livelihood Why scaling a purpose-driven company demands just as much internal growth from leaders as it does from teams, products, and systems The shift from simply providing creative tools to becoming a true partner in the music-making process - and why that's where the magic happens Resources: Kakul Srivastava on Splice | LinkedIn Lindsay Pedersen - Contact me to tell me who you'd like to hear as a guest! | Connect with me on LinkedIn

Today, I'm talking with Kakul Srivastava, CEO of music creation platform Splice, which is one of the biggest marketplaces for loops and samples around. You can just go sign up, pay the money, and download these loops to try to make pop hits all day long. Take, for instance, Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso, which was composed almost entirely out of Splice samples.  Now, if you're a Decoder listener, you know that some of my favorite conversations are with people building technology products for creatives, and that I am obsessed with how technology changes the music industry, because it feels like whatever happens to music happens to everything else five years later. So this one was really interesting, because Splice is all wrapped in all of that.  Links:  Sabrina Carpenter's Espresso highlights the way new music is made | Bloomberg Major record labels sue AI company behind ‘BBL Drizzy' | Verge Splice CEO's message for AI sceptics? “Trust the artists” | MusicTech Splice launches voice recording on Splice Mobile at SXSW | Splice OpenAI & Google ask government to let them train AI on content they don't own | Verge AI Drake just set an impossible legal trap for Google | Verge Pharrell Williams: $7.3 million Blurred Lines verdict threatens all artists | Verge Lady Gaga, nostalgia, and the ‘reheated nachos' phenomenon in pop culture | Her World AI music startups say copyright violation is just rock and roll | Verge Suno CEO says musicians don't actually like making music | Vice Transcript: https://www.theverge.com/e/632036 Credits: Decoder is a production of The Verge and part of the Vox Media Podcast Network.

Here at Spooky Tuesday, we go through the highs and lows of horror — and when you fit the theme, you fit the theme, which is how Splice (2009) ended up on our schedule for Monster Fucker February. Whether you've never heard of it, were scandalized after watching it in theaters, or have been eagerly/nervously awaiting the opportunity to see it for yourself after reading a certain Internet famous LiveJournal review, this movie makes for quite the viewing experience. It's famously awful, but also features two Academy Awards winners and nominees, and isn't that exactly the sort of conflict that can make life so interesting? On our new episode, Monica takes us all down the rabbit (plus kangaroo plus bird plus fish plus human plus slug or whatever) hole as we dissect this abominable creation.

A jam-packed episode of No Tags this week, but we had a lot to catch up on. Central Cee's debut album Can't Rush Greatness is out (02:56) and it's UK drill's biggest album to date, almost by default. Eusexua (10:07) might be the record that finally sells us on FKA twigs?

A key member of SoundCloud's class of the mid-2010s, umru officially graduated to the hyperpop top tier in 2017 with his work on Charli XCX's game-changing Pop 2 mixtape. He's since worked with the likes of Hannah Diamond, Tommy Cash, Hyd, Dorian Electra and more while releasing his own music on PC Music and, this year, LuckyMe. He's also one of our favourite DJs, with an anything-goes approach that feels firmly in the legacy of faves like Total Freedom, Evian Christ and Ryan Hemsworth. We also talked about his past life running parties on Minecraft, leak culture, pop's Splice era, and the link between PC Music and Pirates of the Caribbean.A little housekeeping: after a small delay the second pressing of No Tags: Conversations on underground music culture should be arriving in the next week, so if you missed out the first time, head to Shopify to place your order.In the meantime, if you're enjoying No Tags, please do rate, review and subscribe on your podcast app of choice.

In this episode of For The Record, we're joined by Mary Robb, CEO and Founder of Social Practice, to delve into the art and science of social media marketing in the always competitive, ever-evolving aesthetics industry. She started her career in traditional marketing prior to launching Social Practice in 2019, but she saw the writing on the wall- digital marketing, specifically social, was the key ingredient to building a strong brand. This episode is a power hour full of SO many insightful tips and proven tactics to turn your social media efforts into business growth, but some of our favorite highlights include: The Power of Storytelling Mary believes that social media is fundamentally about storytelling—sharing your passion, expertise, and how you serve your patients. For aesthetic practices, social media has become essential for patient education, community building, and practice growth. But the challenge lies in balancing genuine content with strategic business objectives. Crafting a Content Strategy Mary advocates for a structured content strategy that keeps teams aligned and engaged. From content batching for efficiency to defining clear roles and KPIs for staff participation, she emphasizes the importance of making social media a team effort rather than relying on sporadic posts or trendy content alone (and a team of experts when it's all too overwhelming!) Engaging Patient Content One of Mary's standout insights is her approach to creating patient content, like before-and-after photos and testimonials. She shares practical strategies for obtaining consent and suggests hosting “social media days” with incentives for patients who are willing to share their stories. This approach not only generates authentic content but also fosters a closer community around the practice. Most importantly, it gives Patients the content they really want- information about procedures, outcomes, and what to expect! Key Content Pillars for Success Mary recommends organizing content around four primary pillars: 1. Educational Content - Highlight expertise and share treatment insights. 2. Patient Outcomes - Showcase real results through testimonials and procedural content. 3. Culture Content - Provide a glimpse behind the scenes, spotlighting team members and practice values. 4. Sales/Promotional Content - Promote special offers, memberships, and limited-time deals. In Mary's experience, balancing these pillars helps practices maintain engagement while driving conversions, blending authenticity with strategic goals. Tools to Streamline Social Media Mary introduces tools like Splice for video editing, Sprout Social for content scheduling, and ChatGPT for content ideation, making social media management more feasible for busy practices. Building Community and Authentic Connections Mary stresses the importance of engagement beyond just posting. She discusses collaborating with local businesses and micro-influencers, highlighting that authentic connections often yield better results than traditional ads. Transforming your online presence into real patient appointments is the ultimate goal, so be stay on top of what is driving results and do more of that!
