Dear Entertainment industry players starting new ventures in the POCAST sphere
I Tinopona TinTin Katsande have no problem with being invited to speak /discuss/debate on your podcasts . Infact I'm greatly honored when you call on me to speak on your topics . Obviously there is something I'm doing right for you to call on me. HOWEVER, please note that I am NOT ABLE to attend as a panelist/guest kana musina kurongeka . This means
1. RENUMERATION ( of some sort ) must be availed.
2. You must give me at least 7 days notice prior to shoot / recording
3. You must be in a position to avail me the edited/ mastered /final product of the podcast for my personal files NOT JUST A LINK .
Yes, I'm all about kusimudzirana and what I can do complimentary I will but remember Im an artist , activist , advocate and above all a mother who must put food on the table .
30 years in the industry I really don't need anymore " exposure " as a personality but instead ini ndini ndinotokupai the much needed exposure you need as a start up media personality. Information and entertainment dissemination IS HOW I MAKE MY LIVING - its how I get paid ,so please be cognisant of that .
And no I DONT WANT TO HEAR ana
" we are just starting off ...hatina mari...."
INSTEAD
" we don't have a big budget but we can afford to give you a token of $..... or something in kind for your time bla bla ...."
pakadayi handi rambe because I can see you too are putting effort and you RESPECT MY BRAND, TRADE , SKILLS AND OPINION.
I thank you ðŸ™‡â™‚ï¸ ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜So I got a podcast,I pay the studio rental,Cameraman,editors ,transport the guest .
In turn I post the video on YouTube and If I get 10 000 views that is $10 .
Meaning to say the video revenue is not capable to cover 1% of the expenses.
Therefore,podcasts don’t pay that much and as a podcaster,I am financing this from my pocket.
The main problem being Africa has got a very low cpm .
If only we were in Europe we could afford to pay you .
But I understand you.

Health Insurance for Self-Employed Workers
Health Insurance for Self-Employed Workers
Self-employed workers must find their own health coverage. Without an employer plan, choosing insurance can feel difficult. Health insurance for self-employed workers may include marketplace plans, private health insurance, spouse coverage, or small business plans.
The right plan depends on your income, medical needs, prescriptions, doctors, and budget.
What to Compare
When shopping for private health insurance, compare premiums, deductibles, copays, out-of-pocket maximums, prescription coverage, and provider networks.
A low monthly premium may look attractive, but high deductibles can become expensive if you need care.
Ways to Save
Self-employed workers may qualify for tax deductions or premium tax credits depending on income and location. Comparing health insurance quotes can help find better pricing.
Conclusion
Health insurance is important for protecting your finances. Self-employed workers should compare plans carefully before choosing coverage.
