Today my book on Podcasting was presented to some of the most influential media buyers in the United States, in a exclusive media presentation in New York. I was happy to forward copies to those in attendance, and hope that it helps the education process in the realizing the potential of this new media evolution we are experiencing.

If you are a media buyer and represent a major firm you can send me a e-mail at podcast@podcastconnect.com with your name, agency and companies you represent along with and address and contact number and I will send you a free copy of my book to help you understand the power of the medium.

From the RawVoice.com website see disclaimer below. We are working hard to get the word out to the masses on the Podcaster News Network and thought we would introduce a publicity promotion. From now till the middle of February we will be watching what listeners and podcasters have to say about PCN via their blog entries. We will take the top five submitted entries and give them some free air time across our family of shows.

So if you like what we are doing at PCN, or you love a specific show or category of the network and you write a web post on it let us know, it could turn into some great publicity for your own site. Drop us a email at feedback “at” podcasternews.com with the URL to the post, and we will add you to the list of sites that we will vote on. If you are a podcaster, and talk about us on your show be sure to send us episode and time hack.

Big thanks to all those bloggers and podcasters that did reviews and talked about the book on their blogs.
