HOUSTON, TX , Sept. 09, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PickleJar Entertainment Group, (OTCMKTS: PKLE), a leading Texas-based music and entertainment software company, today announced three new additions to its advisory board to provide strategic guidance and consultation on the Company's mid- to long-term revenue and corporate development efforts. The additions will bring expert perspectives to the Advisory Board on critically prominent issues, such as identifying key market opportunities for expansion, managing the challenges associated with accelerated growth, and supporting national marketing promotions, enabling PickleJar to continue to meet the evolving and complex needs of its global brand partners.

  • Gator Michaels – Former Senior Vice President at Warner Bros. Nashville and EVP/GM of Reviver Entertainment Group

  • Charlie Cook – Former Vice President of Cumulus Media and operations manager for Cumulus' Nashville cluster and program director for Nashville country stations WKDF and WSM-FM Nashville

  • Frank Ruppen – Former Global Director at J Walter Thompson, McKinsey Consultant and Brand Manager at Procter & Gamble

PickleJar created its Advisory Board in 2022 to expand the range of experiences and curate unparalleled expertise to support its long-range plans. These additions expand that mission with decades of first-hand experience facing the entertainment industry’s biggest challenges, creating value-add services, and national campaigns. They bring an acute understanding of the difference innovative technologies – and companies like PickleJar – can make in the lives of Artists and Fans alike.

"Integral to PickleJar’s core values is the range of ideas and deep technical expertise in delivering technologies designed to solve big industry challenges. Adding these experienced leaders to the advisory board helps PickleJar gain additional perspectives and insight on how we can leverage our best-in-class commercial software to improve outcomes for our customers and our industry," said Jeff James, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of PickleJar. "Our Advisory Board plays a pivotal role in steering and accelerating our innovation priorities, and to expanding our Board in the future."

PickleJar’s valued partnerships with industry leaders, coupled with its mission-driven commitment, have generated an increase in demand for PickleJar’s Unified Entertainment Ecosystem across a multitude of media channels, music labels, and Venue Partners. In an era of rapidly evolving touchpoints between Artists and Fans, decision-makers need flexible software capabilities not available with the existing commercial applications and data management services.
