The Best Marketing Podcasts for Small Business Owners

Just a quick scan through the iTunes store reveals literally hundreds of business/marketing podcasts available to download, for free, straight to your iPod or Mp3 player. There truly is a fountain of marketing knowledge out there for the listening, but with so much choice and so little time how do you know which ones will really be useful for you and your small business and which are just constant pitch fests for the hosts course or membership program?

As I probably listen to between 4-6 hours of podcasts everyday, based around multiple topics but mostly business and Internet marketing related shows, I thought I would put together a small list of what I believe to be are the best business podcasts available today that can realistically benefit your small business marketing knowledge.

It?s taken me a while to weed out the fluff filled pitch fests from the marketing masters but now I have a core group of A-class podcasts subscribed to iTunes. So in no particular order, here is a run down of the top podcasts for small business marketing and systems discussion, strategies and ideas.

Small Business Big Marketing

Aussie interviewers Tim Reid and Luke Moulton wrangle in small business owners, Internet marketing gurus and CEO?s of large organizations for an in depth yet light hearted grilling.

From sole traders who conquered the fashion mags of New York to the marketing professor at?Melbourne?s Monash University, how about an interview with the?Managing Director of LinkedIn Australasia with tips on how to make the most of your LinkedIn profile? Sound good?

The guys have a knack for not only extracting the marketing gold from their guests but also to keep the conversations engaging and entertaining, with running gags and witty banter between the hosts and guests this podcast educates and entertains.

Preneurcast

The Hosts of this podcast Pete & Dom discuss advanced business strategies in a coherent and digestible way.

Entrepreneur Pete Williams,? probably best known for the fact that at the age of 21 he sold Australia?s version of the Yankee Stadium, the Melbourne Cricket Ground (in pieces) and is involved with multiple successful businesses teams up with Co host Dom Gaucher to discuss the ?nuts n bolts? of entrepreneurship.

Dom runs a successful video production company and amongst other achievements was a Technical Solutions Consultant for Xerox.

Together they get deep into the nitty gritty of all aspects of business, marketing, entrepreneurship and life hacking with subjects including outsourcing, product creation, conversion, pricing and sales.

I Love Marketing

Carpet cleaner turned marketing Guru Joe Polish joins forces with real estate marketer Dean Jackson to go old school on your ass by discussing timeless marketing techniques that still work today.

With mind-blowing insight into direct mailing, lead generation, lead conversion, and getting referrals.

The podcast could be a little more concise. It?s very easy to find yourself drifting away, lost in your own ideas and have to skip back several minutes to catch what you may have missed.

The earlier episodes unfortunately fell down on audio quality slightly but as the shows continue the quality improves so I recommend you persevere with the back catalogue to understand fully the methodology discussed. (Keep a notebook handy ? you will get ideas!)

Simplify My Small Business

Adam and Simon, who both run successful local businesses, discuss ways to snatch back time and streamline your small business, simplify your working life and increase profits.

Compared to the other podcasts in this list the Simplify episodes are quite short, usually around the 20 minute mark, making them good for a short commute but a little lacking in depth.

The discussions cover outsourcing, marketing and lead generation tactics, as well as methods to help you de-stress and Simplify the tasks you do on a daily basis within your small business.

Freedom Ocean

Take one host from Small Business Big Marketing (Tim) and pair him up with one of Australia?s leading Internet Marketers (James Schramko) and you have a recipe for taking your small business online in a big way.

This podcast is primarily based in the world of online business and is labelled as an Internet Marketing podcast but for anyone wanting to fully take on digital marketing for their small business this is a great resource.

The premise of the show is that James (the expert) helps Tim (the novice) learn the skills needed to make money online, for any business owner wishing to move more into a passive income model this podcast will take you in the right direction.

Highlights include discussions on digital product creation, email list building, re-purposing content, affiliate marketing and membership business models.

Automate My Small Business

This podcast seems to have come to the end of its life sadly as there hasn?t been a new episode out in a long time.

However I have included it in this list because the episodes are still available on iTunes and are jam packed full of useful tips and strategies for removing yourself from your business as much as possible by automating, outsourcing or eliminating the tasks that bog you down as a business owner.

Based loosely on the philosophies of popular lifestyle design books ?The Four Hour Work Week? and ?The Lean Startup?, both hosts certainly know how to build and implement systems and this podcast is a great entry point into digital marketing techniques for small business owners.

My Thoughts On Meditation | CCRRC.net: Latest News in ...

I?ve been meditating for more than a 2 years now and I have some thoughts on it and its use. As a hypnotherapist I?ve used it to assist me in seeing my clients who come for numerous things like depression, anxiety, weightloss and smoking hypnosis to name 1 or 2.

Well let me list the uses I have used it for straight off relaxation, elimination off anxiety and other bad feelings. Conscious relaxing of muscles for helping with reprogramming my body to get rid of recalled discomfort. Removal of all additional tension in my muscles or other tissues. Visualisation of smart goals, NLP change work to change my opinion and feelings. Finally getting more in touch with my body and having the ability to sense all the muscles and tissues in my body to a very great extent.

I originally used it to relax and release stress so I would relax myself as much as feasible to modify my state from being stressed to being relaxed. This was particularly vital when I started my new business of hypnotherapy, this cause additional anxiety at the time and because I worked with people with Problems it was really important for me to get my clients a good result. So when working with my clients I need to be in a relaxed focused state, where I am centered outward with a very quite mind, so I?ll use my senses to work out what is happening with my clients so I will provide help to them.

So I used meditation to feel better and change my state! What is the mind body connection? It is where what you?re feeling influences the way that you think and naturally the opposite applies as well so what you think influences how you feel so that the body and mind are directly linked and influence each other. As an example if you have very stressed thoughts this will tend to generate the feelings of stress in the body as physical sensations, while naturally the reverse applies as well if you stomach starts to flutter like anxiousness it will then make you begin having stressed thoughts. The two are linked and influence each other.

Using this principle I also used Meditation to do my NLP Change work to get rid of anxiety and other things in my life that were bothering me, even behaviours so I might put my self in a very relaxed state then start working on my mind and the way In which I think because this is simply a hypnotic state and a good place to be to start changing what you do at a subconscious level. So at this stage I am now using meditation to work on my self from two different angles one from the mind and the other from the body to get change at a unconscious level.

As a part of my change work I also use mediation to visualize my Goals in a fashion that focuses me on working towards achieving this goal in this state it is a better place to do it, because you can access and communicate with your unconscious mind easier than in a normal waking state of which I also did this visualization I did this as much as practicable.

I also started work on some physical issues I had like recalled pain, I had plenty of issues with my left hip where all of the muscles had tightened up such a lot to try and protect an old injury, that I kept re-injuring to the point where it never got better if anything it just got worse over a period of time and as it probably did I just got used to it and added rather more tension plus pain. So I?d relax the muscles in the area getting them to only tense to the level that they should rather than being switched on all of the time in a tense unpleasant way. I mixed this with NLP to get rid of all unconscious programs of recreating the injury in the area along with massaging treatment. This sort of reset my body and mind so that the area healed.

Thru the process above I also got an understanding on what else the work could help me with and that is getting in touch with my body and what it is feeling, I am really not an individual who was very mindful of what was occuring in my body and over time this had got worse, so I found just by exploring my body looking for strain and releasing it I was bringing into my conscious awareness the ability to feel what was occuring in my body, then getting some conscious control of the body to relax it.

Thru this journey with meditation I have one goal at the end of it all and that?s I do not want to have to depend on meditating every day for the remainder of my life solely to feel great. This is what I see many of us out there doing who practice it! They?ve a set frame that to feel nice and relaxed and good they have to meditate every day, if they do not well they do not get to feel truly good. The have also got the idea that they must do this for the rest of the life to manage or handle the stress, depression etc So that they can feel better, I?m aware that this is not how it essentially has to be and I am in the act of teaching my subconscious mind the simple way to automate all the things I?m learning! With the knowledge that one day I can opt to stop meditating and I wont need to because I have automated everything I have explained above and I?m going to do it instantly all the time while I?m awake doing anything in my life. I know this is possible and I also know someone who has got to this stage, so I suppose what my aim is to use this to switch and to not use it to cope with or manage stuff on an ongoing basis like most others I have met do.

On his business internet site he has more info for cleints enthusiastic about booking in for a session for help with weight loss hypnotherapy, quit smoking, Phobia?s to name 1 or 2.

New Atari Jaguar System ? Video Game Console

The Atari Jaguar is a video game console, released by Atari Corporation in 1993. It was designed to surpass the Mega Drive/Genesis and the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in processing power. It was in competition with 3DO and later consoles that made up the Fifth generation of video game consoles. The console was first released in selected U.S. cities in November 1993, and the rest of the country in early 1994. Although it was promoted as the first 64-bit gaming system, the Jaguar proved to be a commercial failure and prompted Atari to leave the home video game console market. Despite its commercial failure, the Jaguar has a large fan base that produces homebrew games, making the console a cult classic. The first 64-bit gaming console
