Listened to 3 in a Row

I am just getting into PR. I need to create a social media calendar for my assignment. Episode #21 was assigned as something to listen to. The I stayed for #22 & #23.

Very clear, concise and compelling.

I'm addicted

I love Gini Dietrich! I follow her blog and now listen to her information-packed podcasts. I learn so much every day. I'm 59-years-old. Gini is teaching an oldtimer (me) new tricks. She offers timely insights and the latest intel on PR tools that save time and help me stay on top of the latest trends. The Big Question? How does Gini do it all? I know she has a terrific staff who she credits consistently, but Gini herself appears to be on top of everything in the industry and in her company. I'm so impressed and a little intimidated. She reads voraciously, cycles and has a family too. Gini should do an episode called, "How I Do It All" and share her secrets with us. Bravo Gini! Keep up the good work.

Finally!

I just binge listened to four episodes, only stopped because I arrived home! Comprehensive but digestible, pro viewpoints that a lay person can understand. Left brain data focus with right brain creativity, I truly have found my home.
