New To Podcasting?

I’m not a really new podcast listener. I’ve been an iPod owner for a while now and I’ve been subscribing to podcasts and listening to them when I have some downtime.

I’ve generally been listening to downloads in the marketing and motivation areas. Not only are these topics I am interested in for my own practice, but that in turn helps me better support my holistic businessclients - many of whom come to me needing help in attaining their marketing and business goals as they just don’t have the time to do it all. So, I like to learn all I can.

But so far, I’ve limited myself to searching at the iTunes music store.

The whole online audio explosion passed me by while I thought I was keeping up with it.

Well, I broadened my horizons this past weekend and wanted to pass along some things.

First, if you’re still kind of clueless about podcasting and the learning and inspirational audio that is out there, check out Learn Out Loud. Now, a lot of what they offer on their site is not *free* but it is chockfull of information and some of the tops in business management and marketing have audio books and podcasts for sale.

Some of the better sites I’ve found to search by topic and/or author:

Podcast Alley

podscope

Yahoo! Podcasts

Singingfish

I’m going to be actively researching more on podcasting because I think it’s an area my clients (as well as myself) should consider being on the giving end of - the potential is limitless.If you also think it may be good for your business to record podcasts, if you don’t already - spend some time listening to what’s out there that others in your field have done.

You can download and burn a CD to listen to while you’re driving, download to your MP3 player and listen while walking, running, or just relaxing on a Sunday afternoon.

You’ve got to start somewhere.
