  • Local Elections Matter w/Columbia’s Ray Jeter :: Ep 201 MMTBP
    Jul 16 2024
    Middle Tennessee Business Podcast....subscribe/follow/rate/review at www.mmtbp.comI met Ray Jeter a few months ago at a Maury County Commission meeting. I was impressed with his earnest desire to make sure Maury County, which has been experiencing unprecedented growth along with most of Middle Tennessee, to maintain its rural roots and charm mixed with suburban enterprise. To say that Ray Jeter’s roots are firmly planted in Maury County is quite an understatement. When Ray was three years old, his family relocated their concrete business to middle Tennessee, laying the foundation for his future endeavors in Maury County.He met his future wife-to-be in Kindergarten! His formative years were spent in the humble surroundings of the Maury County trailer park, American Mobile Village. It was here that he first encountered the life-altering power of faith, guided by Pastor John Rushing.Later, at a local church, he rekindled his connection with God and reunited with Courtney, his kindergarten sweetheart, forging a bond that would withstand the tests of time.Ray enrolled in Bible College immediately after graduation. After just three semesters in Bible College, Ray proposed to Courtney, and they were married on March 16, 2002.In 2009, Ray joined the Maury County Sheriff’s Department as a reserve deputy, later earning a full-time appointment as a patrol deputy in 2011. In August 2014, he was elevated to the position of Chief Deputy Sheriff.Fueled to effect positive change in his community, Ray campaigned for and won the Maury County Commission seat in 2022. With unwavering determination and a steadfast commitment to public service, he now sets his sights on a new endeavor, campaigning for TN State Representative, driven by a vision of Maury First.Follow Ray:www.mauryfirst.comHighpoints:Growth and development in a small town.

  • A Change of Seasons w/Franklin’s Doug Griffin :: Ep 200 MMTBP
    Jul 9 2024
    A Middle Tennessee Business Podcast....subscribe/follow/rate/review at www.mmtbp.com...I love to talk with my old comrades and peers who are left or have moved on from the radio business. It may seem that I throw shade on the industry from time to time. I assure you, it’s not towards the folks who are still showing up to serve the public as the medium was intended, hanging around as long as their industry still finds them to be valuable. To those who remain and those who have recently been jettisoned: You still have massive value even if your industry cannot see it anymore. Radio has been cannibalizing itself since the late 90s and it’s a sinking (if not, already sunken) ship. There are a TON of new media, content creation and digital branding industries that need your kind of off-the-wall thinking.Which is why I reached out to Doug Griffin for this episode. Born in the Bay Area in California, Doug Griffin fell in love with old-time radio theater and comedy shows on local radio stations. Naturally, this fired up a desire within Doug to make a career in radio. As a foreign exchange student in Germany, Doug fashioned a home stereo system to record audio messages for friends on cassette tapes which, to him, was his first radio station known as "KDUG."Doug got his semi-professional radio start via college, eventually going pro with a job doing traffic reports.Like most radio people, Doug bounced around several California radio stations before landing a job as morning show co-host for Nashville’s WAY-FM 1998. In 2002, Doug found himself “on the beach” (a radio way of saying that you’re between jobs), but a short while later, he landed at new Christian station 94FM The Fish, where he has worked up until April of 2024. Now he’s on the beach and has a TON to offer. Highpoints:Radio industry, personal experiences, and virtual currency. (8:25)Radio broadcasting techniques and experiences from the 1970s to 2000s. (11:58)Car sales and marketing strategies. (17:10)Personal branding, podcasting, and sales strategies. (32:05)Overcoming fear and pursuing new opportunities. (37:34)Job loss, career development, and salesmanship.
