LTB was shelved for a year or more before I took on the production in a separate company to improve its production values and make it suitable for commercial as well as community stations. </font><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;">Each episode of LTB takes about one and a half man-weeks of effort to produce.</span><span style="font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;"> </span><font face="Calibri,sans-serif">If your station doesn’t have the capacity, time, skills or people to produce a great speech show for your own station you definitely don’t what to start pitching in to produce shows for any others. </font></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><b>2) The programme must be original; </b>You’ll need ideas and lots of them. But not just any idea, the programme needs a real focus. We have a written internal editorial policy so either when we have an idea, when a PR company pushes their client at us, or someone is looking for exposure, we know if and how we can do the item. This way everyone on the show (Josh, Sean and myself) know what’s best for the show. </div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><b>3) There is no money in radio; </b>If your goal is to do a speech programme for fun, or you have a pet project and you’re not worried about getting paid, then you’ll not be disappointed. Even for a modest show it will cost you money in the short and medium terms, then making money long term in speech radio is difficult. </div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;"><br></div><div><b style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 15px;">4) Refactor Content; </b><font face="Calibri,sans-serif">I think we are leading the way with this, as all our content over the last 4 months has been broken down into self contained items.
