TALK RADIO VETERAN RANDALL BLOOMQUIST LAUNCHES TALK FRONTIER MEDIA,         A TALENT MANAGEMENT AND CONTENT DEVELOPMENT COMPANY

ATLANTA, November 12, 2009 –  Randall Bloomquist, a veteran talk radio programmer with a reputation for developing talent and turning around troubled stations, has launched Talk Frontier Media (TFM), a talent management, content development and talk media strategy company.

Talk Frontier Media provides a full range of talent services from air checks to image-building to complete career management. TFM specializes in working with up-and-coming talent and those who aspire to join the ranks of talk media — whether as traditional talk radio hosts, Internet radio personalities or podcasters. 

“This is a very exciting time for talk media,” said Bloomquist. “We are on the verge of a new golden age for spoken-word entertainment when listeners will have nearly unlimited choice on the aptly named ‘infinite dial.’  But one thing will never change.  The winners — regardless of platform — will always be those personalities who are able to effectively deliver unique content and create intimate bonds with their community — whether that community is defined by geography, shared belief or niche interest.”

Talk Frontier Media also serves as a force-multiplier for talk media outlets, providing critical programming services on a contract basis.  These include talent searches, talent evaluation, content development, station critiques and competitive analysis.

TFM’s Strategy function helps businesses and other organizations employ talk media to achieve their goals via relationship-building, public service campaigns, content development and production, and paid advertising.
