Shani Scott is the owner of Media Room 360, a streaming and media distribution company out of Texas. Her company has been built largely through what she learned in radio. Inspired by listening to the legendary Tom Joyner on K104 in Dallas, Shani knew she was in it for the long haul. Believe it or not there are likely portions of our audience who don't know that Tom Joyner did mornings on K104 in Dallas and afternoons at WGCI in Chicago. Live. With flights both ways on Southwest Monday to Friday between the cities. It was that work ethic that was infused into Shani that led her to think community, while also having the knack to find the money. In this episode you will hear how she learned that working with both programming and sales can teach you valuable lessons in the years after radio.
