Production Notes:

Marketing Over Coffee is recorded every business Wednesday at 5:30am Eastern at a coffee shop in Natick, MA, just outside of Boston. Chris is on the legendary Shure SM58 microphone, John on an Electro-Voice N/D767a. The audio is captured on a Marantz PMD 660 that has been custom modified by Oade Brothers for enhanced performance. The audio file is then loaded on to a PC, run thorough the Levelator, mixed with Goldwave and uploaded to LibSyn. The blog is hosted through the generosity of Mr. Penn, on the WordPress platform, with a plugin that automatically generates the RSS feed. We monitor stats with Feedburner, LibSyn Stats, and Google Analytics.
