Jim Harold: From Radio Sales to Paranormal Podcaster

Jim Harold: From Radio Sales to Paranormal Podcaster

Jim Harold is a radio salesperson turned professional podcaster and shares his experiences in podcasting since 2005.

Jim Harold began podcasting on the paranormal in 2005 and is among a handful of pioneers of podcasting. His programs have stood the test of time and The Paranormal Podcast and Campfire remain among the most popular in the genre. He also developed a premium tier and much to his surprise... worked! He started out in radio sales after originally considering television. When he was let go from CBS, he pushed all-in on Podcasting and he is now the host of a number of podcasts beyond the two aforementioned ones.

As a result, he has also become a published author with his Campfire series. The first book was originally published by traditional publisher New Page Books, and since then Jim has taken the books independent. All five books are available in eBook and paperback at JimHaroldBooks.com and via Amazon.com.

Jim lives in Ohio with his fantastic wife and two daughters and I had the pleasure of meeting him at Podcast Movement last August.

We did the show using Squadcast instead of Skype. If you liked the sound quality, let me know. I might actually open my pockets and spring for it.
