Some might ask, what is the point of Radio Talent? Granted it is mainly the thick people that ask us that; so rather than point at them and laugh, we explain to them that it works rather like this:
Clever people see an opportunity and create a page on our website for a small fee. The page not only allows them a publicly accessed professional resume which they can update and cherish like a new pony, but enables them to reach people whom they may never reach in a million years.
The cleverest of those people work out how much it costs to have a page VS how long term it can benefit them through opportunity and awareness - which we all know, eventually leads to cash.
But for Producers and Radio Bosses - what about those people?
Well these groups of people never ask us the point, as they tend to already know. If they didn't then they wouldn't be bosses. Because all bosses are smart.
For them Radio Talent allows them to easily see people of noteworthy standard who work in radio or TV. They can track progress, make contact, or just keep a watchful eye on the whole industry rather like a beady owl in a tree.
They can also talk to one of our staff by email, or place free radio jobs on our website which in turn automatically go on those websites where people write sentences or look at pictures of their ex girlfriend.

What's in it for you?
We like to think of Radio Talent www.radiotalent.co.uk as like a private collection of cars owned by a rich movie star. An array of beautiful marques, pristine, outstanding and exceptional.
A display of only the best there is on offer, all shiny, crisp and desirable. Reserved only for the discerning eye, the invited, those that can appreciate, those that understand.
Our website lists the achievers, the progressive thinkers, the ones you want to work with. The most exciting newcomers, the most seasoned voice overs rock solid presenters, award winning journalists and heavyweight producers make up what is still the world's only talent identification tool. And if you want talent, you want talent who have made the effort to catch your eye...not just today...but for tomorrow.

One man makes 60k from a website
Capital Radio producer Dave Moses has been head hunted not once but twice since having his profile on the Radio Talent website; earning a staggering 62,000% return on his investment; slightly better than the bank of England.
Currently working in the central London hub for both 95.8 Capital FM and the new Capital Radio Network, Dave arguably owes much of his career success to Radio Talent; or more accurately to himself for taking responsibility for his own marketing and investing wisely.
Before it all started, Dave was a DJ at Win FM where he presented the drive time show, he was there for quite a while before realising he was actually quite rubbish and nobody liked him. This though, was all about to change.
He decides to Join Radio Talent for a laugh
For a bet, Dave decided to join Radio Talent and create some awareness for his new found production skills; he had in his spare time purchased a mixing desk from the electronics specialist Maplin and and was learning the art of fading in and also fading out.
Several weeks later after hearing his demo on Radio Talent he was head hunted by the programme director of Berkshire and North Hampshire's 2 TEN FM, as Dave recalls it was there that things started to pick up for him:
Things really started to pick up for me from then Dave says.
Until the magical call, Dave was thinking he might spend the rest of his life in Winchester at Win FM:
Win FM was so small I was worried I might go out for lunch one day and return to find it had blown away in the wind" Dave jokes wittily.
A gift for us all
Soon after the call from the mighty GCAP he was then head hunted by an Australian man and ended up landing a dream job at the country's biggest radio station 95.8 Capital FM.
And all because of his radio talent profile?
Dave spoke of this elation:.
"I know it's amazing" he minced.
But that's not the end of the story. Today Dave emailed Radio Talnt to say that he was about to be spotted a THIRD time by a really important Capital Radio North of England Regional Programme Director.
According to Dave, the PD (who we won't mention as he will be spammed) was about to employ Dave before realising he already worked for the same company Dave says:
"He was about to give me a gig and then realised I already worked for the company"
Dave pictured here is very grateful that Radio Talent made direct and significant impact on his career, and stated that he probably would not be at Capital if it wasn't for them.
As a gift he bought Radio Talent some bananas.
WIKI and reference section
(i) The picture of the man with the beard is not Dave it is a man called Moses. Dave's second name is Moses, which we thought was brilliantly witty, because we found a picture of Moses.(ii) Win FM was a radio station based in the town of Winchester in Hampshire England. The cunning creators of the station cleverly created an abbreviation to name it WIN utilising only three of the available ten letters of the town it broadcast to. However at the same time they also discovered that the word WIN was also a word which all people liked. This legendary marketing pun was a huge global success and the creator of the name now works for global advertising agency Saatchi and Saatchi.
(iii) Dave - a Radio Producer
(iv) If you are a clever talented individual like Dave and think it's about time you got recognised you too can try and make as much money as him here.
(v) By the way if you think you are smart and can do maths, you can work out how much money Dave has made from his investment. However we are not counting his current salary as that would be crass, nor are we divulging how long it took nor how much he earned in each job, so there.
