I especially like "when I have been successful in making the talent feel that I am their ally not their adversary, it almost always works" -- yes, yes, YES! We performers crave feedback, but most of us are so hard-wired for insecurity, we make ourselves hard to reach. "Lay the blame, instead, on poor talent management and ... Read Morecommunications." May I respectuflly add, "a poor understanding of what satisfies the listener and motivates him/her to come back for more, and how to deliver it."<br /><br />Bill Dodd<br />Aw..... You were always just like a mother to us!<br /><br />Jaye Albright<br />Was that mother or "M-Fer"? (smile) Thanks, Bill. You were a treat to work with and it's been fun to watch your success since then (hard to believe it has been 25 years).Facebook Threadhttp://www.facebook.com/n/?profile.php&id=692631651&v=feed&story_fbid=112133626242&mid=e107d3G2948b863G25ccc10G36noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8927785.post-6163769029431823172009-08-03T05:47:44.260-07:002009-08-03T05:47:44.260-07:00To me radio is akin to finding a really cool websi...To me radio is akin to finding a really cool website or blog. You keep coming back because the content is compelling, entertaining, or both. There are a couple of blogs that I know longer follow because the author either quit posting new material, or became stuck in a rut. I've always found the same to be true about radio in general and personality driven shows in particular. <br /><br />You're absolutely correct about custom tailoring your strategy for winning. Listeners don't listen in lockstep. Everyone uses radio differently. To apply the subjective data gleaned from research to every personality in every daypart in the same exact fashion is programming suicide. <br /><br />And finally Jaye, I couldn't agree with you more about how much better the talent/programmer/management relationship is when talent feels everyone is on the same side. <br /><br />I mean who wants to be in a marriage with a partner that's constantly telling you everything you do is wrong?Mike Bellnoreply@blogger.com
