ZimmCast 745 - ZimmComm Announcement & NAFB and NAMA interviews

Hello and welcome to the ZimmCast. I'm Chuck Zimmerman. In this episode I'm going to share a couple of interviews from the NAMA Agri-Marketing Conference. One is with Gardner Hatch, Executive Director, NAFB and Debbie Boyle, Vice President, Kynetic. They talk about a new NAFB listener survey. Then I have an interview with Melanie Rice, Brownfield Ag News, about becoming the new President of NAMA. Before I do this I'm going to talk about a ZimmComm announcement Cindy and I published last week. Basically, we are retiring from business travel starting at the end of 2025. Besides our 21 years with ZimmComm we traveled a lot for many years before we started ZimmComm. We founded the company in 2004 as the first social media-based agricultural communications company and pioneered "event blogging" for farm and biofuels conferences, capturing the sights and sounds in photos and interviews. Nearly 225,000 photos and countless interviews and miles later, we have decided to hang up our traveling bags and spend more time at home. A lot of people look to retire to travel the world. We've been blessed to see all the places we ever wanted and more! We plan to continue our AgNewsWire news release service as well as AgWired.com, Energy.AgWired.com and our podcasting and other audio production services. We're just giving up the travel portion of our work. So that's the ZimmCast for this week. I hope you enjoy it and thank you for listening.
