Radio Music Conference a Huge Success

As reported by walb.com the Southwest Georgia Radio Music Conference was a huge music conference. Don E. Buie, ADICA, Executive Director, Downtown Albany Manager, Allen Johnston –Music Specialist, John F. Christmas –Sports & Entertainment Attorney, DJ Judge Mental –Dirt Law Radio Syndication, John “J-Dogg” Shaw –Select O Hits Music Distribution, Corey Webb –Mogultunes.com, Antonio Richardson -GA Entertainment, Willie Hunter –Publicist/Music Publisher, B. Brown –Bar Red Entertainment and JaWar –Motivational Speaker/Author/Business Consultant presented dynamic presentations on the music business and how to make money online.

There were a number of highlights and historic firsts during the Radio Music Conference. DJ Judge Mental was the first DJ to ever present a power-point presentation on the music business during a music conference. This was the first time a music conference truly delivered cutting edge international music business information, health related issues, motivational speaking and a how to make money online seminar at the same event. The Southwest Georgia Radio Music Conference was the first to be held in Downtown Albany at the Hilton Garden Inn. The Radio Music Conference was the first in Albany to encourage guests to bring laptops so they may actively participate in the make money online seminar at a higher degree. This music conference was the first in Albany, GA to have a featured speaker to fly in from Brazil to present.

Honestly, this is one of the only conferences I’ve attended were the guests, featured speakers and partners all took diligent notes. The information was truly dynamic.

The spirit throughout the conference was one of positive encouragement and the need to learn to earn. It was the collective effort and single goal and mission of envisioning an event that would empower others to do for self that made the Southwest Georgia Radio Music Conference such a huge success. It was the email blast, online presence, print media and radio from GA Entertainment, Bar Red Entertainment, Hits-A-Million, S.I.R. Magazine, Allen Johnston, Star LITPR, Streettalk Newspaper & Marketing, Versus Entertainment/Almost Famous Showcase, KE Consulting, Love Internet Broadcasting Network, Hotep, Mi2n.com, Cool Water Report, WJIZ 96.3FM, the Music Industry Connection and many others that assisted in helping spread the word about the event.

Those that missed the event missed an opportunity to network with business professionals actively engaged in the music business who seek to share and help others achieve their goals and realize their potential. You missed a chance to participate in an experience that will be known as something historic. During the Southwest Georgia Radio Music Conference, the tone was set and the bar raised. In celebration and the spirit of Music Therapy 101 Music Business Conference the Southwest Georgia Radio Music Conference continued to usher in a New Era in Music Conferences. After attending this Radio Music Conference and JaWar’s How to Make Money Online Seminar guests may be truly disappointed when attending some of the other music conferences.
