Podcast #1 - Founder of Fruitcast
We had James Archer in our office yesterday as our first guest on our new podcast series with local Arizona entrepreneurs. In all it was about a 45min conversation that ran the gamut covering James’ experience working as a technical writer for JDA Software, a project manager for Rhino and how he eventually made the leap to starting his own webdesign company, Forty Media and ultimately launched the podcast advertising startup Fruitcast. It was a fun conversation dense with a career’s-worth of wisdom. If you have questions for James about anything that was discussed in his interview, ask away.

The audio quality was admittedly less than ideal but the content of the discussion makes up for it (we’ll use a better mic next time). You can catch the audio here and leave comments or questions for James here. Pass it along:These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages. […]
