Free, limited-time offer to podcasters

After editing text for a quarter of a century, and multimedia content for— well, a lot less than that, but a while— You know what I’ve noticed about most podcasts I’ve heard? They’re too darn long!

Especially the technical ones. They desperately need editing.

Throwing up a long, rambling recorded conversation or presentation without editing is just that: throwing up.

Do you know what broadcasters call unedited content?

Raw.

Do you know what they call 75% or more of that content?

Cuttings. Floor sweepings. And that’s professional stuff.

Maybe a good half hour interview will yield a crisp, informative, entertaining 7-10 minute program. Or maybe not.

So, here’s a free offer: If you’re posting your recorded material as podcasts, and want some experienced help editing them, contact me. I can give you some time, because I need to freshen my chops a bit before I start billing for it. My practice, your advantage.


Offer expires Friday, January 19, 2006. It may also be withdrawn sooner, if I get too busy.
