New Episode Tomorrow…I Promise!

Posted in Housekeeping/Admin by Jared on October 12th, 2006

Ok, so 15 days without a post or a new episode is a stretch but believe me when I tell you I have an excuse…

You see, in an attempt to take what I’ve learned in the last year or so about podcasting and the power of the internet, I’ve also been taking notes on how a medium like this can be integrated into a more traditional marketing plan. This meticulous effort came to a head a couple of months ago when I finally drew up a plan that convinced our CEO and SVPs that we could use this medium to reach a younger audience and to tout the expertise of certain executives.

So for the last couple of weeks, I have been getting our company’s show ready to debut for our internal audiences leaving me very little time to work on my own show. It’s an experience that explains to me why most chefs hate to cook for themselves after a long day cooking for others. In particular, there is only so much time one person can spend in front of an audio editor.

Combine that experience with drafting MBA admissions essays and tracking down my old boss to ask him for a recommendation and you’ve got yourself 2 weeks of very little free time to spare.

To make it up to you, I am going to forgo the episode I have in production and do another edition of the 20-Something Roundtable tonight. So look for a new show tomorrow morning featuring a “round-the-horn-esque” MBA Spin report from my first MBA interview.

Cheers!

Best,
Jared
