Welcome to the Pressboard Podcast, the show where we talk to the most interesting people in marketing and media today, and the businesses they lead.

Today on the show my guest is Emily Jackson, SVP eCommerce at Forbes.

Emily may now the SVP of eCommerce at Forbes, but her childhood dream was to ride horses in the Olympics, which makes her path to the affiliate marketing world even more unlikely. We chat about how a trip across the pond led her to a role at the tech company Skimlinks, which led to Conde Nast and eventually to Forbes. Emily is a super fun guest and shares stories of an awkward interaction with Anna Wintour and explaining to her grandma that she doesn’t actually sell boots on the internet.
