Career Business Herman was president and chief evangelizing officer of theDial (formerly TheDial.com), a start-up Internet radio company. The company was based in Salt Lake City before moving to Seattle in 1999, when it had 22 staff members. The company was ultimately acquired by Loudeye.

He held the position of Streaming Media Evangelist at MSNBC.com and then General Manager, Media Strategy and Monetization for MSN. He left Microsoft in September 2007. Herman was founder and chief creative officer for SpinSpotter, a software add-on designed to detect "personal voice, passive voice, biased source, disregarded context, selective disclosure, lack of balance and over-reliance on news releases" in journalism. The company had 14 employees in 2008. In March 2009, after leaving Microsoft, Herman was hired as Director of New Media for the Republican National Committee (RNC), taking up the job the following month. In that role, he oversaw the national Republican Party's digital strategy. In 2010, Herman posted a personal tweet suggesting that President Barack Obama was a Muslim; the RNC distanced itself from Herman's tweet. Herman co-founded Crowdverb, a social media monitoring startup, in 2011; it was acquired in 2012 by Washington, D.C.-based Direct Impact, a unit of Burson-Marsteller. Radio In September 2015, Herman became afternoon host at the Seattle conservative talk radio station KTTH (AM 770) in Seattle when Ben Shapiro left the slot open. At KTTH Herman worked alongside other conservative talk show hosts David Boze and Michael Medved. In January 2019 Herman became co-host (along with Candy Harper and Mike Lewis) of The Candy, Mike and Todd Show on KIRO; the program replaced the Ron and Don Show, which had aired for 13 years. The show ran in the 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. time slot for one year, ending in January 2020. Herman returned to KTTH to host during morning drive time in March 2020, replacing "morning personality" Saul Spady.

Herman filled in regularly as a guest host on the nationally syndicated Rush Limbaugh Show. In January 2021, while a guest host on Limbaugh's show, Herman suggested that the perpetrators of the U.S. Capitol attack might have been "Antifa" or "BLM". The disinformation circulated widely among Trump supporters. Subsequently, in late February 2021, Herman acknowledged that "it was clear a large group of Trump supporters entered the Capitol and assaulted people" but continued to make the claim that antifa activists had planned to impersonate Trump supporters. Herman announced his retirement from his KTTH show in November 2021, with the intent to launch a podcast afterward. The podcast will have a more religious focus than his radio show. The radio show ended on December 1, 2021.
