Friday May 17, 2024
Friday May 17, 2024
Hey everyone, it's Derrick here on "The Producer's Journal." So, I've been up to some pretty cool stuff this week. I've been chatting with Wendy Johnson – you know, she runs that marketing agency that wants to help. We're working on doing a swap deal, which could be pretty sweet.
I've also been toying with this idea of starting a podcast in Byhalia, MS. I cover the conversation I had with Wendy on this matter.
And that's not all. I'm dreaming big here – I'm talking about a whole network of podcasts. I really believe we can make something amazing if we all team up and get involved with each other's projects. It's all about that community spirit, right?
