Scalability is the key to our Apps business and with our automation now working efficiently, we can rapidly move forward on creating Apps for our 16,000+ podcast clients.”

Wizzard is expanding its podcast App to work with Google’s Android and RIM’s Blackberry platforms that should provide for substantial revenue growth opportunities as the podcast App is introduced to an entirely new user base.
