WHAT IS SPEAKING HUMAN?

IT ALL STARTED WITH A PODCAST… 

Speaking Human began its life as the official podcast of MONSTERS Unlimited, a creative agency with a business brain. We wanted to share our passionate/funny/strange conversations about the marketing world. So we started podcasting.

Our goal with the podcast was simple: Cut out the jargon and mumbo jumbo to focus on how marketing can bring brands and people together. We wanted to tap into the human side of marketing—to shine a spotlight on all the amazing thought, creativity, technology, insight, humor, and joy that goes into in creating and consuming marketing.

While our mission hasn’t changed, Speaking Human has. Over the years, Speaking Human has evolved and transformed into something much bigger. We still have our original podcast—but we’ve extended the Speaking Human galaxy to include other podcasts, articles, and videos with similar unique perspectives.

And the Speaking Human universe keeps expanding. We’re simplifying the marketing world right now and we’re looking for great minds like yours to be a part of our team.

WHAT IS THE UNIVERSITY PROGRAM?

Real World Experience – Our University Program is geared to give you real world experience. Not only will you have the opportunity to write and create content that gets published on a growing network, you’ll also work with professionals on honing your marketing knowledge and skillsets for the workforce.

Get Published – Speaking Human is growing and is producing printed content twice a year in an effort to expand its reach. Those who excel in the university program and develop high end content will be considered for inclusion in the Speaking Human Magazine.

Internship Opportunities – The best part of the university program is the ultimate prize – an internship. Those who have demonstrated a passion for marketing and go above and beyond during the program will have a chance to take part in an internship with MONSTERS Unlimited, the local creative agency who started Speaking Human.

Hone Your Skills – Instead of writing assignments, you get to write about your own ideas (as long as they are in some way marketing related) from your own perspective.

Get Noticed – You will receive authorship credit on every Speaking Human article you write; this includes your name, photo, title or blurb, and a link back to the website or social profile of your choice. We will also promote your content on our social channels to drive readers and attention to your work.

Support and Feedback – We will support you in your development in any way we can — whether providing a sounding board for article ideas, editing your content to help you further develop as a writer, or working with you to expand your expertise into areas like video creation or podcasting.

A Chance for Creativity – We are open to new ideas. So if you have any creative (or even slightly crazy) ideas for new things you want to try (like different writing styles or post formats), we welcome and encourage them and will support you any way we can.
