“I had the pleasure of working very closely with Ryan as he was (quite literally) building Warner Music Group’s OTT business from scratch. From day 1, his command/ intricate knowledge of the modern video media & OTT landscape was truly impressive. From how to build the right revenue model, to the intricacies of each major platform’s most impactful growth levers, Ryan always knew the right business strategies to optimize for/lead the team toward’s the outputs that would help maximize overall retention and growth. I miss working with him daily, but know our professional paths will cross again sooner than later.”

“Ryan is a savvy strategic and operational digital media executive who understands how to achieve success at the intersection of great programming, marketing and monetization. As a consultant working with the Outside Studios team in 2022, I found Ryan to be an excellent partner, extremely knowledgable about video and sports — especially the rapidly evolving space that includes FAST, OTT, SVOD, AVOD, and social. I hope we will have the opportunity to work together again!”

“If you’re looking for someone to navigate the fast-paced and ever-evolving digital media landscape, you have come to the right place. I was fortunate to have worked for Ryan Dadd at Outside TV, helping to launch and grow the company’s first digital product offerings across mobile, web, OTT, and FAST. He led the charge across all departments to turn a small traditional cable network into the leading outdoor adventure FAST network. In addition to his ability to deliver at a high level, Ryan always took the time to help each team member grow, both professionally and personally.”

“I reported to Ryan during my time at Outside TV; as the company evolved out of traditional cable and into digital streaming - at the direction and guidance of Ryan. Ryan’s serial-entrepreneurship background along with his 360-degree knowledge of the greater media landscape not only allowed for Outside TV to grow, but also myself - as a professional. Considering Ryan and I still keep an active to this day... proves what a positive impact he has had on me and my career.”

“Ryan is the business equivalent to a five-tool ball player; he has it all. Ryan is a smart, connected, driven, and creative executive with a leadership style that is infectious. He thinks big and delivers. I was fortunate to work alongside Ryan as he was the brainchild behind the rebirth of Outside TV into a multifaceted video production house renamed as Outside Studios which will be a major source of growth & revenue for Outside for many years to come. ”

“Ryan did an incredible job helping to grow and organize that company from an idea to a prospering entity. His relationship skills are by far his best strength. Working with Ryan is like working with your best friend. I can highly recommend Ryan without reservation.”
