Background

About John Conner

I am an industrious, driven professional with strong communication and analytical skills honed as both a professional podcaster and a senior customer service trainer. I am passionate about media production and content creation. Communication – written and spoken – has always been my strong suit. I am a skilled, articulate interviewer, experienced in podcasting and radio. I thrive on content creation. I write, research and fact-check the content for the podcast, “Check the Locks: A True Crime Podcast,” which I co-host with a partner. I compose compelling episode titles and descriptions to engage listeners and drive downloads, and write script/copy for podcast advertising partners. I have a firm grasp of grammar and possess a strong attention to detail. Media production is my passion. I have developed, designed, and produced content across multiple platforms. I produce, mix and master our podcast to industry standards, and compose all of its music and artwork. Data analysis is another part of my skill set. I have tracked analytics across platforms to improve performance and bolster growth. At Verizon, I worked on a team that conducted root cause analyses and deep dives to identify opportunities to reduce costs by $150M. In a recent analysis of our podcast’s data, I determined that 84% of our audience is female and 70% of our audience is between the age of 23 and 44. With that data, I successfully solicited advertising from a children’s clothing manufacturer that sells to that demographic. I am a skilled project manager, highly organized and deadline driven. I always seek to exceed, rather than simply achieve, expectations.
