Dad's Log - A Glimpse Into The Mind Of A Broadcaster

Today I want to talk about diversifying your network. As you begin broadcasting, you always hear from experienced folks that networking is CRUCIAL to your growth and success. I echo that sentiment. But I feel like many people start off strong by networking with 2 or 3 other broadcasters and then spend ALL their time in those channels. I would encourage you to think a little more broadly. Instead of spending 10 hours a week in 3 channels, explore and spend 10 hours in 10 different channels. My encouragement for you, is to not put all your eggs in two or three baskets, but to instead put them in 2 to 3 NEW baskets a week. It's important to make friends with as many people as possible, both other broadcasters and people in their communities. When it comes down to it, it's just like investing with your money, if one of those channels takes a dive, you have 10 others to back it up. God bless!
