I’m not sure if any of you have ever grown a plant from a seed or not but when I was a little kid I tried it several times. Sometimes I was successful and other times I failed but every time I planted a new seed I always wondered if it was growing. If I was going to get something out of it. I would sit at my window and look out side where I planted those seeds and wondered if anything was happening underground. Last Fall many of us planted some seeds in the ADM. 150 of them came out of my pocket and some companies put in 1000 seeds each. Many of us have been wondering if anything was growing out of those seeds. Well let me assure you that you may not be able to see any growth above the surface yet but things have been growing and you will see things start to sprout in the next few months. The ADM is a newly formed organization. It takes some time to get everything up and running and there are several people working very hard to take things to the next level so that we can all benefit from the ADM.I joined the ADM so that I could help jump start a marketplace for Advertisers and Content Creators to connect and Buy and Sell Advertising in Online Video and Audio. In order to do that we have to create standards. TV and  Radio have standards, Newspapers and Magazines have standards but online audio and video don’t really have a list of standards and it’s the ADM task to put together a list of standards and get them approved by advertisers, agencies and content producers. You may not be able to see it yet but that is happening and soon you will have the chance to be involved.  That said, one of the things I have been asked to put together for the ADM are Member Tools. I need to assemble things like Media Kits, Sales Presentation and any other tools that might be helpful to the ADM membership. Soooooo, if you have any tools you would like to share with the ADM membership or any Tools you would like to request from the ADM membership now is the time to speak up.  Just shoot me an email at 1timstreet at gmail dot com and let me know what you have to offer or what you would like to see. I will do my best to turn these around and see if we can get an area set up on the website to share these tools. And if you feel like your not getting anything out of the ADM yet just give your seeds a little more time. I think you will be very happy with the growth.
