BACKGROUND
It all started with an idea. A few passionate individuals saw a need in the market and created a movement around it. The movement Im referring to is Podcast Movement. An event that was the brainchild of Jared Easley and Dan Franks, two fellow Podcasters and purposeful entrepreneurs. They loved Podcasting and knew there were many others out there who felt the same way they did about the medium. Little did they know they were on the verge of something BIG!
So last year, they took to Kickstarter to see if they were right about their idea. Were they EVER!! The people spoke loud and clear and not only did they WANT Podcast Movement, they DEMANDED IT!
In this weeks episode, I talk about my experience attending the Epic event known as Podcast Movement. I talk about some of the things that really stood out for me, where I think Podcasting is going in the future, and why its so important to attend events like these.
