Announcing Amplitude – A New Marketing Podcast for South Africans

Dave Duarte and I would like to ‘officially’ announce the launch of Amplitude – A New Marketing Podcast for South Africans (by South Africans).

This is a pretty exciting step as neither of us have played much in the podcasting space. Unfortunately setting up a decent podcast that you, the producer, retain 100% control of is an intimidating technical task. We hope that amplitude will do two things:

1. Inform and entertain you as we bounce around ideas, interview movers and shakers and comment on the world of New Marketing and social media.

2. Inspire you to get of your geeky ass and produce your own frikkin’ podcast.

So I need you to start by subscribing. Either add to iTunes or plug the feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/Amplitude) in to your iPod software of choice. It’s our first time (giggle), so we’d love your feedback on the content, sound quality (eish), angle and more. What would you like to hear us talking about? What should we add, or take away?

Please send your suggestions, comments and cash donations (lol) to amplitudepodcast[at]gmail.com.

Last favour – we’ve got u a nice WordPress-y theme, but need someone to help us design:

1. An Amplitude logo
2. An image for the podcast in iTunes
3. Perhaps a header image for the site

Let us know if you’re keen. We hope you enjoy it. Read Dave’s post here…

Andre, no real concrete ideas. We were hoping you guys could take into account the existing site theme (which we like), and the vibe of the show (which you’ll get a feel for), and splice the two together for something lekkr.
