I'm the co-founder and COO of Bulletin, a venture-backed retail technology startup based in NYC. Named a Forbes 30 Under 30 recipient and one of "The Most Creative People in Business" by Fast Company, I've spent the last four years building a brand and platform that democratizes access to physical retail space for digitally native brands. Since launching in 2015, Bulletin has helped hundreds of brands access physical retail space for the very first time, unlocking one of the most powerful commerce channels at their disposal. In addition to helping emerging brands grow their physical footprint, our marketplace helps retailers access vetted, fool-proof products for their stores. We are a Y Combinator Company backed by Foundation Capital, Kleiner Perkins and others. I'm a ruthless salesperson, self-taught publicist, marketer and growth strategist, and have experience scaling both dtc and b2b companies. As a creative, I've conceptualized and launched 6 pop-up stores, dozens of ad campaigns, influencer marketing programs, and built and evolved Bulletin's brand voice over the past 5 years. I throw messy, amazing parties and know every song in Max Martin's discography. Check out Bulletin at www.bulletin.co, and follow me at @alikriegs on Instagram. I'll be publishing my first book, How to Build a Goddamn Empire, with Abrams Books on April 6, 2021.
