Module 2 Week 2

Considering how far I have come towards launching this podcast venture, there are two things that I will do in this week that can kick start the process and move myself forward quickly. The first thing is to do test recordings using the first chapter of the "fan fiction" that my friend Stacey wrote and test record myself reading the chapter out loud using the microphone on my computer or the voice recorder on my phone. The purpose of this will be to test how far away or how close to the microphone I need to be in order for the listener to hear what I am saying clearly.

Second, I will tell the owners of the local comic book store that I go to about my podcast venture. The purpose of this comes from one of the videos the professor linked to in Module 2 Week 2 titled: “How to find an Angel Investor.” The biggest take away from that video is that I need to tell as many people as possible about this venture. Telling people who own a comic book store about a comic book podcast that I will launch will provide me with new guests to feature in addition to friends as well as new comics to discuss. The owners are extremely friendly and have a vast wealth of knowledge about the comic book industry as well as numerous recommendations of new comics for myself and other customers to discover that are not from the “big two”: DC and Marvel.
