When I started out in the industry, I used Ryan’s Podcast resource to gain experience …

Audio Content Promos – October 2020
I’ve been known to mention “content pieces” quite regularly on my blog and it’s quite evident in my audio branding work with SiriusXM.

A brand new Radio Imaging Podcast is here!
The most common quote I see online this year is “The Podcast Industry is over saturated” “Podcasts only have 2% of time spent listening in most markets” while both are probably true statements, The Radio Imaging Industry is certainly a niche and we’re not looking for millions or thousands of streams. It will never be that way, ever! But Radio …
