ONEONTA – Though she calls it “Small Talk With Jill,” it could become anything but little.
“I know a lot of incredible businesses, and I asked myself, ‘What can I do to help them?’” said Jill Morgan-Meek, owner of Transitions Consignment Boutique, 6 Dietz St.
Morgan-Meek, who took over the store from Cindy Staffin in 2014, has launched “Small Talk With Jill,” a weekly video series that highlights local business and cultural entities by inviting the owners to sit down with her – over Zoom, for now – and tell customers and potential customers what they have to offer.
“It’s been in the back of my mind for several years,” she said. “I want people to meet our shop owners.”
A native of Alden, Morgan-Meek moved to Oneonta from Rochester in 2013, when her husband Phillip took a job at Ioxus.
So far, she’s interviewed Underground Attic’s Elizabeth Raphaelson, Eighth Note’s Ruth and Fred Cleveland, the Scanlon Team, part of Oneonta Realty, and the Artisan’s Guild’s Deborah Blake.

Jill Morgan-Meek looked at Oneonta and Otsego County and saw one thing missing in the area's media landscape.
"It was easy to get on the phone when you needed media with Oneonta," said Morgan-Meek, who moved to the area seven years ago from Rochester, where she worked in several marketing jobs. "We have newspapers and we have radio stations, but what we didn't have was a television station. The nearest television station is over an hour away."
In October 2017, Morgan-Meek bought Transitions Boutique, a Dietz Street consignment business that had been in the city for a decade.
"You know, as a business, you need all of those forms of media to reach people," she said.
This year, Morgan-Meek launched an digital video interview segment, Small Talk with Jill, in which she interviews local business owners to help them find a larger audience in the city, county and region.

ONEONTA – Wearing a mask is that much harder if it doesn’t fit, said Emily Phillips.
“I got masks for my partner and I, and mine kept falling off my face, and his was pulling on his ears,” she said. “I reached out to a crochet group on Facebook, and they had patterns for ‘mask mates’.”
She was recently featured on “Small Talk With Jill,” in a post that garnered donations from across the country. “People made and sent me some from Rochester, Iowa, even Texas,” she said. “People know what’s going on here in New York and they want to help.”
