What’s the best $500 you’ll spend this year?

There are many people, places and things on which you could spend $500 this year to raise your work to a new level, to have fun and to learn. Several of them good, practical and useful. But, one event that’s a don’t miss every year is the International Radio Creative and Production Summit held in Los Angeles every August and presented by Dan O’Day. If you register today or tomorrow, you can still take advantage of the early bird discount rate of $495. The price rises to $595 on Monday. At that price it’s still going to be one of the best learning opportunities you’ll have this year, but why spend the extra $100?

This year’s guest speakers include Dave Foxx from Z100 in New York. Pat Fraley. And Nancy Wolfson. Dan has added a “networking” event this year, so you will leave the Summit with your own new network of complementary telents from around the world. (Yes, it really is an international event.) I’ve attended every Summit since the second one in 1997. It has been gigantically beneficial to me and my voiceover business. There’s always valuable information for voiceover folk. And if you do some copywriting and production too, it’s even more valuable.

When you register for the International Radio Creative and Production Summit online (and that’s the only way to still take advantage of the early bird discount) and you put in the comment box at the bottom of the registration page that you’ve signed up because I recommended the Summit to you (and if this is your first year to attend) Dan will pay me a commission. The registration rate you pay will be exactly the same no matter what, but in the interests of full disclosure I want you to know. So, if you don’t want me to get the commission on your registration, don’t mention my name. But, if you want me to get the commission, then please do.
