Rapid Fire with Our Founder & President, Shanley Gibb
We sat down with our Founder and President, Shanley Gibb, to find out what makes her tick beyond creating campaigns, managing talent and engaging on social media! This is what we learnt!
Salty or Spicy?
Definitely salty. I cannot handle any spice. All of my talent laugh at me.
Go-to Beverage?
I cannot live without Diet Coke between 9:00AM-5:00PM. But after 5:00PM, pinot grigio please.
Editing apps you couldn’t live without?
Canva for curating content. CapCut for editing videos and Setty for editing images to match our brand’s feed aesthetic.
Dream client or collaboration?
Martha Stewart, Nancy Meyers or both. Why not, right? I just love the brands they have created. They are two powerhouse women whom I would just love to pick their brains.
Software or program that acts as your lifeline?
Click-Up. Legit the only way I can manage life and keep on top of everything.
Fun fact that most people don’t know about you?
I was a competitive horseback rider from the age of seven. I still love to escape to the barn and turn my brain off. It’s my version of therapy.
Food you cannot live without?
Pasta of any kind and more recently, Cactus Club Lettuce Wraps. I am slightly obsessed.
Favourite social media platform?
I’d have to say Instagram. It’s my old faithful.
If you could travel/eat anywhere in the world?
I would have to say London. It’s my favourite place in the entire world. It just feels like home.
Biggest accomplishment to date?
Starting The Place & Co. It took me a while to make the decision. But now that I have, there’s no looking back and I couldn’t be happier.
