Dear Aspiring Sports Broadcaster:
If you’re anything like us, you’ve long thought about a career in sports broadcasting and how exciting it would be to go to work and actually enjoy yourself. But you may not know the best way to break into broadcasting, or you may be frustrated that nobody will tell you why they haven’t hired you yet.
Perhaps doubt has begun to creep in, and you’re beginning to wonder if the problem is you … something you’re doing ... or NOT doing.
Truth be told, the problem may not be you. Sometimes others are just a better fit for the job that you feel is perfect for you. Or, you may have done almost everything right, but one tiny error or omission may have caused you to be overlooked in favor of someone who didn’t make the same mistake you unknowingly made.
It’s not your fault if you’re doing something wrong that you don’t know about. It is, however, your responsibility to learn the correct way to become a broadcaster, or how to properly advance your career, in order to avoid making the same mistakes over and over.
The problem is, you may never even know what the job-killing mistakes you keep making are.
After all, when was the last time any employer called to explain the reason they didn’t hire you, and to offer suggestions for your future job interviews?
Probably never, right?
Not only has an employer likely never called with an honest critique of your portfolio, presentation, or job interviewing skills, the chances are equally slim they‘ll ever offer that courtesy to you any time in the future.
"Your Sports Broadcasting Success Hinges on One of These Two Choices"...
1) You can wash - rinse - repeat the same tactics you've been practicing to this point...and likely experience the same mediocre results, or
2) You can add proven tactics for success to your arsenal and experience different results. Winning results!
If you choose to remain in the first category, we wish you well. You may get lucky ... or, more likely, you may not. However, if you desire to be in the latter category, your luck is about to change...for the better!
Announcing the "Uncovering the Secrets to Sports Broadcasting Success” Webinar Series.
You’ve heard it said that “baseball is a game of inches?” Well, so is the difference between success – and failure – in broadcasting.
Often times, more qualified job candidates will be passed over in favor of less qualified (candidates) . The difference? The 'less qualified' candidates made the effort to learn something about the company to which they were applying.
In other words, it’s often the little things that make the biggest difference between success and failure.
In these upcoming webinars, you’ll learn to recognize the difference between tactics used by successful broadcasting candidates, versus those who keep spinning their wheels with losing strategies
| You’ll hear actual demo tapes that landed other sportscasters jobs. | |
| You’ll see exactly how to format a resume for broadcasting. | |

If you've decided not to take advantage of this opportunity, here are 6 big reasons that might change your mind.
We know that sometimes it’s hard to make a decision, so we do nothing.
Well, it's been said, (and it's true!) that making no decision is the worst decision of all. You remain right where you are, while time goes marching by. And one day you wake up and the chance to have your dream is gone. We don’t want that happening to you. So here are 6 reasons would-be students have given us for why they resisted making that all important move, and some answers that changed their minds… and hopefully will also change yours
Resistance Reason #1: “I can’t afford to attend”.
Michael & Jon’s Response: “We understand and respect that people have budgets they live on. However, the real question only you can answer is ‘Can you afford NOT to attend’ ...if doing so will result in giving you a competitive advantage in breaking into, or advancing, your sports broadcasting career? In other words, can you afford to miss out on gaining 5 , 10 or even 20 insider tips and secrets that would separate you from the competition?
Resistance Reason # 2: “I’d like to attend, but I’m busy on the days you’re conducting the live webinars.”
Michael & Jon’s Response: No problem. Within a few hours, you’ll have the replay in your email box to view and listen to at your convenience. We’ll also have live follow up conference calls a few days after each webinar for you to ask specific questions AND receive additional training.
Resistance Reason # 3: “How do I know what you’re teaching will work for me?”
Michael & Jon’s Response: The success principles we teach will work for you simply because we have worked in sports broadcasting for years ourselves and understand how the business operates. We both work with on-air talent, program directors and HR people, on a daily basis and will share with you what management looks for in new hires. Once you learn these insider principles for yourself, you’ll know before-hand exactly what to do and what NOT to do to land your next sportscasting job.
Resistance Reason # 4: “My friend is a sportscaster. I can just ask him what to do”.
Michael & Jon’s Response: Truthfully, if it were that easy, every aspiring sportscaster would be working. They’re not. What worked for your friend one time, may not even work for him again...much less for you. The more ‘tools’ you have in your toolbox, the better your chances of realizing success will be. By attending even one of these live webinars, much less all three, you’ll have a major advantage over the vast majority of your competition. After all, you'[ll have been been taught the proper way to break in and stay in. They won't!
Resistance Reason # 5: “I’m not interested in sports. I’d rather be a talk show host or a DJ”.
Michael & Jon’s Response: Although the emphasis of our teaching will be on sports broadcasting, it’s all still broadcasting. Sports are merely the broadcasting format we discuss. You can apply the principles you’ll learn to any format within broadcasting. As a matter of fact, Michael's students are applying these same techniques in radio stations throughout the U.S. and Canada through his TVandRadioJobs.com of BroadcasterTraining.com company.
Resistance Reason # 6: “Can you guarantee I’ll get a broadcasting job if I attend these webinars?”
Michael & Jon’s Response: Of course not, any more than someone can guarantee you a job after graduating from Harvard. How you apply what you’ve learned is often the difference between the haves and have-nots. What we do guarantee, however, is that when you apply the same principles countless others have used to their benefit over the years, you won’t be sabotaging your own success. Sometimes, other candidates are just a better fit, that’s all. On the other hand, you’ll be adding insider secrets that others don’t have to give you the best chance at success when the fit is right for you!
OK. We’ve hopefully answered your questions. Now we have one for you! Will you do nothing and stay where you are in life or will you begin to live your dream by simply clicking a button.
