\nMs. Komporlis brings approximately 20 years of experience driving subscription growth across The Wall Street Journal, The New York Post, and Barron\u2019s\n<\/p>\n

NEW YORK & AUSTIN, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–ZMC and Simpler Holdings, LLC (\u201cSimpler Trading\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a leading platform for interactive online education for individual traders and investors, today announced the appointment of Christina Komporlis as Chief Executive Officer of Simpler Trading, effective October 17, 2022. As CEO, she will focus on driving subscription revenue, expanding the Simpler Trading product offering, and growing the Company\u2019s overall membership.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nMs. Komporlis brings approximately 20 years of experience driving subscription growth of several premium brands, including The Wall Street Journal, The New York Post, and Barron\u2019s. She has held several leadership positions across News Corp companies, most recently as Chief Enterprise Membership Officer at Dow Jones. During her tenure, she led product lines and global teams of more than 100 sales and marketing professionals, and she played pivotal roles in several critical business objectives, including the design, implementation, and launch of the first dynamic paywall in the media industry, the transformation from print to digital, the growth from 2.3 million to 3 million subscriptions, and the inception of a new business unit catering to professionals.\n<\/p>\n

\nMs. Komporlis will succeed interim CEO Eric Lundberg and continue to work closely with renowned professional trader John Carter, who founded the business in 1999. Mr. Carter will remain engaged in his current capacity leading the Options Gold Room, as well as developing new strategies and tools to best serve the Company\u2019s growing audience of individual traders and investors.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIt is an honor to lead Simpler Trading and build on the incredible momentum that John Carter and his team created,\u201d said Ms. Komporlis. \u201cOur engaged members recognize the power of the community, and our platform offers the support and guidance to ensure that the self-directed investor does not trade alone. The access we provide to John and our other 17 expert traders, who are conducting real trades in real time with real money, is a key differentiator in this market. I am confident that together we will harness the opportunity ahead to amplify our brand and grow our membership.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cWe welcome Christina to the role of CEO. She is a proven builder of global brands, teams, and communities, and with her at the helm, we have every confidence that Simpler Trading will continue to accelerate its position in the growing market for high quality, insightful trading content,\u201d said Jordan Turkewitz, Managing Partner and Co-Chief Investment Officer at ZMC. \u201cWe also thank Eric Lundberg for his stewardship as interim CEO and Brittany Burns for her leadership as previous CEO, as their contributions have helped bring the Company to this exciting inflection point and put it on the strongest possible footing as a market leader.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cI am looking forward to working with Christina to streamline our member journey, improve our service, and deliver the next phase of growth for Simpler Trading,\u201d said John Carter, Founder of Simpler Trading. \u201cHer experience in scaling subscriptions will help us reach more customers that need our expertise to become more informed and strategic traders. In a time when markets are volatile, and it\u2019s difficult to find an edge, our platform and community have never been more essential.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
