Cupertino, CA – October 28, 2014 – In January Kelli Richards, CEO of The All Access Group LLC, will celebrate her first anniversary as a regular contributor to LinkedIn Pulse, a dedicated space supporting corporate leaders and visionaries to grow their businesses and influence.

Pulse is actually an award-winning App, created by two Stanford grads, and purchased by LinkedIn in late 2013.  It is designed to automatically bring in the channels, influencers and LinkedIn content already followed by users. Additionally, Pulse offers personalized content recommendations customized to users' LinkedIn preferences and professional interests.

A true renaissance woman, Richards was named as one of Silicon Valley Business Journal's "100 Women of Influence" for 2013. She was also invited to Trinidad & Tobago as a Liaison for the US State Department in 2013, sharing her expertise on digital distribution for books, music and films.  Her role with LinkedIn Pulse is another opportunity for Richards to share her vast knowledge, coaching expertise & strategic insights with progressive corporate and entrepreneurial leaders.

Prior to founding The All Access Group, Richards served in senior roles at Fortune 100 entertainment and tech companies, most notably at Apple Inc., where she launched Apple's earliest focus on music -- and drove all music and entertainment initiatives during her 12 years there.  Earlier in her career, she was an exec in A&R at EMI Music.

With a unique talent for connecting innovators in business and technology with creative leaders and luminaries in entertainment, and her more than twenty years of senior-level leadership experience, Richards has become a highly sought-after industry consultant. She is probably best known as a trusted advisor to disruptive start-ups, innovators, entrepreneurs, billionaires and rock stars.  As a super-connector she facilitates powerful strategic business opportunities and deal-making to foster new revenue streams and deliver compelling consumer experiences between Silicon Valley, Hollywood and Madison Avenue.
