There’s a lie that’s been going around that radio is dying. Yet, throughout my years in broadcasting I’ve heard with my own ears persons say it’s their dream to become a radio presenter. 💭 🤩 From observation, I believe what holds most people back is a lack of confidence which is paramount when it comes to media. 🎙️ To thrive in radio you need: An AUTHENTIC personality ACCURACY when presenting information CONFIDENCE in your delivery In my Mastering the Basics of Radio Presenting Course, I’m teaching you how to master all three plus MORE. These are all intertwined. Many people try to be something they’re not so they come across as fake and listeners can’t connect. No authenticity. Then, there are those who don’t avail themselves to knowledge and so they have no value to add and spout misinformation. No accuracy. And there are persons who are muzzled by their own insecurities which means they’re already defeated before they’ve begun. No confidence. I’ve carefully created this course to help you navigate all these issues. The aim is that you should be able to host a show for the first time tomorrow and feel confident enough to do your best, knowing you’ve been equipped. So, here’s what I need you to do. Mark your calendars 🗓️ The course launches on January 11, 2025. 🎉 🥳 Plus there’ll be an Early Bird Special and Launch Week Discount because there should be no excuses why you can’t get this course. 🙅🏽♀️ I ensured both tiers are packed with value! I do recommend Tier 2 if you’d like even more tools to help you on your journey. Tier 2 has the Mock Radio Show plus 8 radio stinger/voiceovers and 26 instrumentals 🤯 (all royalty free) that you could add to your own radio show right now. Tier 1 offers 6 royalty free instrumentals 🕺 💃 and so if you choose that option, you still get high quality tools to help enhance the quality of your broadcast. Check the slides for even more details 😄 Radio is beautiful because it’s about who you are and the value you bring, not the extra fluff. This theme is the driving force of this course and why I love radio so much. #radio #media #presenter #broadcasting

As someone who previous worked in TV, check out these numbers! Radio reigns supreme! 📻 Here's why I believe radio beats TV any day: 1️⃣ Imagination at its peak: With radio, your mind is the canvas. No visuals means you're free to create worlds based solely on sound. 2️⃣ Always on the go: Whether commuting, exercising, or cooking, radio is the ultimate companion. No need to sit in front of a screen. 3️⃣ Intimacy & Connection: Radio hosts become friends, and listeners feel like part of a community. It's personal and authentic. 4️⃣ Diverse Content: From news to music, podcasts to talk shows, radio offers endless variety tailored to every taste. In a world dominated by screens, let's not forget the power of pure audio. 🎧 #RadioMarketing #AudioAwesomeness

Recently seen on James Cridland Radio Trends Newsletter https://lnkd.in/djrvCwzP Where do we get new radio talent? I enjoyed a discussion on social media recently about how people got their first radio show on a big station. For people my age, it was normally an overnight shift. It’s hard these days to find new talent: since overnight shifts don’t exist, either being networked in, or being run by a computer. There seems very few ways to get on-air via a quiet shift that very few people will hear. However, BBC Radio 1 (new music + CHR) has a much better plan: to use the period between Christmas and New Year to put new talent on the air. If you’re quick, you can get your application in. “Radio 1 want to hear from DJs and presenters with previous radio experience, be it in community, hospital, student or local radio.” This is a great idea: and exactly the type of thing that the BBC ought to be doing. A great way to find new talent, and also (coincidentally) a way to fill your schedules during a holiday period. Such a great plan - and in its first four years it’s already seen thirteen participants doing additional shows on the station. One for youth public radio stations everywhere? https://lnkd.in/d3gWbVuv #radio #audio #newtalent #nextgen

"The SuperRadio" In my office, several people have noticed that I have an older radio that I use to listen to our stations. A couple of them actually knew what model it was. This is a GE SuperRadio II. One of the best radios for long distance listening at the time. I bought it brand new in 1987, right after it came out. I've made sure to take good care of it over the years, and it has never let me down. Sure, it's got some scratches and dings on it, but it still works perfectly, and sounds wonderful... ...just like Radio, itself. Sure, someone could have discarded this old radio over the years, but at the end of the day in case of an emergency, I can put batteries in it and it'll still be reliable as ever, and give me the information and content I expect. The SuperRadio is a metaphor for our industry right now. Sure, we can focus on the shiny objects in the room, such as digital or streaming. But at the end of the day, that old radio in the corner still attracts 93% of all ears available. That old radio is still relevant to the audience, so we need to make sure that what comes out of that old radio is relevant as well. Creative, local content that is relevant to the community. Not homogenized brands that can be duplicated from Moline to Miami. The only thing that can diminish Radio's relevance...is radio itself. If we don't care about what comes out of the speaker, then eventually the audience won't either. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy: "Radio is dying, so let's focus on (digital/streaming/insert shiny object here)!" As a result, we push people away from radio even if they don't want to be pushed away from it. They want to love radio. It's time for radio to love them back. It's our legacy business. When it goes away, so will everything else that we've placed around it. Radio is the cornerstone that holds up the rest of the building, yet we keep chipping away at it, and expect that the building will never fall. At the end of the day, that old radio still works. And, I love it.

The Death of Local Radio? Did you know the rules around local radio production have changed? Broadcasters are now allowed to record programmes outside the areas they serve. It used to be a requirement that some content was produced locally, keeping the voices and stories of the community alive. But now? That’s no longer the case. Take MFR Radio, for example. Once a staple of local identity, it’s now just a name – the programmes are being produced hundreds of miles away. I mean, how can something be "local" if it’s made by people who’ve never set foot in the area? This isn’t just about nostalgia for the good old days. It’s about losing something vital – the heartbeat of communities, the stories that make a place unique. Local radio was a platform for local talent, businesses, and events. Now, it’s being replaced with generic content that doesn’t understand the people it’s supposed to represent. It makes you wonder – what’s next for our local identities? Let’s not lose sight of how important it is to keep the "local" in local radio. What do you think? Is this the end of an era, or can we turn it around? #LocalRadio #CommunityVoices #SupportLocal #RadioBroadcasting #MediaMatters
