Full-Time Media
The popular travel channel expands luxury lifestyle network with three new channels dedicated to adventure, hospitality and design
Full-Time Travel announces the launch of Full-Time Media, a multifaceted content studio that welcomes additional lifestyle channels: Full-Time Explore, Full-Time Hotels and Full-Time Design. The company announces that they will be changing our business name on Facebook from Visuals of Life to also be Full-Time Explore. Full-Time Media’s social-first formula melds high-impact visuals with lifestyle journalism.
“Content is currency,” said Matt Carroll, Co-Founder & Partner. “Today’s consumer wants to be part of the conversation and they prefer storytelling with a real point of view and helpful reader service.” Co-Founder Nick Van Sicklen adds, “We sit at the intersection of professional editorial and social conversation—exactly where our audience is”
Full-Time, which launched in 2018, now reaches more than 1MM followers across Instagram and Facebook and over 250MM followers across its creator network. Full-Time Travel also communicates two times a week with more than 75K email subscribers. This month, the company unveiled a dynamic user-friendly website to display its owned and custom content. Full-Time Travel pinpoints destinations worth wanderlusting over with new hotels, art exhibits and buzzy openings. Most recently, editors highlighted Flims, Switzerland; Uruguayan wine country and Tasmania as three spots worth visiting.
New channels will follow suit with Full-Time Style, expected to launch later this Spring.
Carroll and Van Sicklen, who held various roles at American Express Publishing, Modern Luxury, Robb Report, Travel + Leisure, Food & Wine and Wallpaper*, have aligned an elite team of publishing and media veterans under their leadership, including Co-Founder and Chief Content Officer, Gabrielle Blitz Rosen, who previously oversaw social development at Travel + Leisure and served as Chief Digital Officer of Beautiful Destinations before launching her own business, Townhouse Digital; and Randy Pease, Managing Director, who previously led ad operations, account management and creative services at Time Inc. Co-Founder and Chief Content Officer Blitz Rosen adds, “Ever-changing media habits demand a dynamic and immensely innovative presence. Full-Time Travel is focused on pairing beautiful content with quality travel intel and serving it on the platforms you frequent most.”
