Special Assistant to the President, Bertelsmann Music Group and BMG Direct

I was recruited as part of Bertelsmann’s selective MBA graduate program to provide strategic support to President of BMG Direct. As a testament to the evolution/obsolescence of media types and business models, my job was to bring the very successful US music distribution business model, the “8 CDs for the Price of One, Nothing More to Buy Ever” music club, to the Japanese market. I also negotiated a JV with Blockbuster to create a Bertelsmann video club to compete with then-monopolist Columbia House.
