People who are interested in launching a career in talk radio frequently approach me for advice and insight. This is flattering and I'm always honored and happy to help.From now on I can share a few keen insights and conclude with, "and before you do anything else, get a copy of Beyond Powerful Radio by Valerie Geller." Done and done! It's tempting to call Beyond Powerful Radio the bible of personality radio, but that's not quite accurate. It's more like The Boy Scout Handbook of personality radio, a practical guide with specific techniques for creating effective radio and managing a personality-driven radio station. While Beyond covers the waterfront, from hiring to voice technique to air checking to emergency broadcasting to promotion to sales to websites to research, the book is at its best when it's focused on Geller's real passion: Helping personalities create emotionally resonant spoken-word radio. At the core of the veteran consultant's philosophy is the importance of storytelling and her three cornerstone tenets: "Tell the Truth, Make it Matter and Never be Boring."--Radio-Info.com "Based on the successful books, 'Creating Powerful Radio' and "The Powerful Radio Workbook," this combined edition provides even more methods for preparing and delivering powerful radio content. Valerie Geller explains the techniques of producing and presenting information, storytelling, news,talk and personality radio. New material is provided on: show prep, interview techniques, news, integrating radio and television, promotion and airchecking techniques."--Radiomagonline.com
