319 Turning A Dream For A Podcast Network Into A Reality & Embedding Facebook Posts




The Cliff Ravenscraft Show - Mindset Answer Man show

Summary: In this episode of Podcast Answer Man, I am delighted to share an interview with my great friend, Stuart Crane. I've talked about stuart in Podcast Answer Man on many occasions, though I may have only mentioned him by name a handful of times. I first met Stuart back in July 2011. My first introduction to him was a letter I received with the largest Plus Membership contribution I had ever received for my podcast network. You can read that letter and see the amount of that contribution by clicking here. Since that time, Stuart and I have developed a great relationship. In fact, Stuart is one of my consulting/coaching clients, he's one of my trusted business advisors, he's now the sponsor of two of my podcasts and most importantly, he is a great friend. There are several reasons why I wanted to have Stuart as a guest on Podcast Answer Man. I wanted to start off by giving some background on who Stuart is, what business experience he has (quite impressive I might add), how he found me and why he made such a large contribution to the gspn.tv network. Next, I wanted to have Stuart share how he came up with the concept for http://TVTalk.com and what he has done to turn that idea into a reality.     Embedding Facebook Posts In this week's social media segment, Erik Fisher and I discuss the recent news that Facebook is rolling out the ability for us to "embed facebook posts" on our blogs. We pretty much discuss what we found in this article.     Podcasting A to Z Do you want to learn how to podcast but don't know where to start?
