Producer Jimmy called me today and said he “needed some advice badly” and that I had to call him back right away. My thoughts drifted to how he must need help with is washing machine, what gift to get his mom, some dating advice, etc. He then proceeded to tell me he was going to a party at a grand opening of a bar downtown and wanted to know if he should wear his cool new sweatshirt or a HOLIDAY outfit. Well, I did what any good friend would do- I told him to text me a picture of the outfits for my approval and I would help pick. DEAR GOD I NEVER EXPECTED THESE! All I gotta say is I know what I’m getting Jimmy now for Christmas. Do you think Macy’s men’s department is open this late (it’s 11:25pm)? My friend needs some HELP quick!

Hey gang! It’s me, Producer Jimmy! Hope you are doing well and having an incredibly great holiday season. Melissa asked me to get you some cool gift ideas so here goes. You know my favorite thing in the world is finding gifts nobody else has (shopping is my forte’). So, although nothing in my mind beats giving the WISP toothbrush (found at almost all Walgreens check out aisles), here are some FUN ones I just found for ya! Thanks for all the emails and letters. We will definitely be talking to you soon AND check back  cause I’m going to add more.  And a special thanks to listener Joy for her input. I gotta go– I haven’t stalked Melissa in a few hours so I owe her a call!! Shhhhh…..

Producer Jimmy!

Jim Gronemann

Jim worked at Dominos Pizza and help develop a marketing campaign that led to back-to-back success. Eventually he earned enough money to run and own 8 pizza joints of his own. However, this was not his intentions to make pizzas for a living. It was time for a career change.

Jim considered about getting into television and/or radio. He started with taking classes at Columbia College. He started volunteering on a hit TV show while contributing to a popular midday radio show. He was enjoying his participation with both productions as a hobby and realized that he really wanted to get into this business as career. It was a Professor at Columbia that told him that it would take him 3 years in school to be considered for an intern position. However, the Professor advised Jim to apply for a Marketing/Promotion position and work his way up from the inside. He did just that.

WKIE-FM 92.7/5 hired him where he worked his way into the morning show by playing sound effects and filling in for the departed intern. In no time, he was booking guests and putting music beds together. Soon thereafter, Jim was hired as one of Melissa’s Producers and has been by Melissa’s side ever since.
