How Are You Finishing 2023? What's in Store 2024?
Few months remain in 2023 and how to look forward to 2024.
While a monthly newsletter is probably the best I can do at this point, I know that I missed October. So, I’ll keep this brief and to the point.
What has been going on since the last newsletter on Two Geeks Talking?
The show was picked up by Atlanta radio station WDJY 99.1 FM and you can listen to the show Saturday’s and Sunday’s 7PM ET streaming live https://www.wdjyfm.com
I signed a contract with them and have to produce 310 episodes. Luckily, I have some amazing interviews present and past that are going to a whole new audience.
It’s a step in the right direction as I’m a solepreneur since June of last year.
Supporting the show isn’t just about interviews, here’s what I can offer your brand.
Since I am my own boss and do Media Production / Social Media work, I want to bring up the current skills and services I can help you with.
If you want to not only have a one-on-one interview to promote your comic/film/misc product on the show now is a great time to do so.
Until Jan 1, 2024 you will get the interview, a custom 30 second advertisment and 30 days of social media promotion of the ad on Instagram, Facebook, YouTube.
These paid spaces are available Sun - Saturday 9AM - 9PM ET here:
www.calendly.com/twogeekstalking
If you are not in the ET Calendly will automatically convert to your own timezone.
This is the only way I can keep the lights on.
WHAT IF: I don’t have a Product or Comic/Media I want to promote?
That’s fine as well I also do consulting work for your Video/Audio Media / Podcast projects including Films, Shorts, Features, etc. Let’s get you focused on the tasks or projects you want to accomplish. I’m here to help.
What are your commercials like? Here are some recent examples:
