Matt Trappe has worked with many running brands over the years. The experience has led to a base of knowledge and the writing process is something that he enjoys and excites him. So the chance to take his experience and share it with the world is something that intrigued him and “A Matter of Brand” is the result! Matt writes about his observations in the industry and hopes to push the whole industry forward. It’s an exciting time in trail running and Matt is loving sharing his thoughts.
“I have a lot of ideas. I have a lot to say. And I feel like I'm just unlocking myself and opening up my brain to the world. And writing has been a lot of fun to do that. So I started the Substack just to riff on things I was thinking about, discovering, maybe learning about myself anyway within the world of branding, marketing, and particularly running. And the writing process makes me really clarify my thoughts and fully think through things from, whatever perspective or whatever take I have on the topic. And I really enjoy it.”
I enjoyed my conversation thoroughly with Matt. I enjoy reading “A Matter of Brand” too, and so it was great to meet the person behind the words and learn a bit more about his inspiration. I hope you will enjoy the conversation as much as I did and let us know what you think!
