Haute Takes
Haute Takes Pod is a fashion podcast co-hosted by Jules Seelig and Madi Kahn, two New York natives trying to navigate the fashion industry’s twists and turns. As recent college grads, with impressive resumes, the gals thought they had it all figured out when they landed positions at Macy’s Corporate. Little did they know 2020 was #canceled, the fashion industry would go through upheaval, and, well, they were F*&#$%. Used to turning to fashion as a way to deal with their emotions--I mean what heals better than a new pair of heels--the two took to...podcasting? But seriously, the coworkers turned bffs hope #HauteTakesPod will be a place they can talk candidly about their experiences, connect with those going through similar struggles, and learn from and inspire their listeners.

Episode 7
In this episode, Jules and Madi get real with 28 Row Founder Janie Smukler about what it’s like to start an influencer marketing company and work with college influencers. Janie worked as an assistant for Cindy Krupp, the founder and president of Krupp Group Public Relations, before co-founding 28 Row with Krupp in 2018. The company quickly dominated the college influencer space, matching brands with influencers and helping those brands tap into the sought-after demographic. Listen to Janie as she spills the tea on why she thinks being an assistant may just be the post-grad move, how she got started with 28 Row, why peer marketing is so important for brands, and how to become a 28 Row girl.
