So, you own a business. Sure, you’ve got years of experience under your belt, gotten yourself out of a few tight jams, and even surpassed your goals for Q4 of last year. But maybe you still need a little help staying on top of trends in marketing to successfully keep your business growing. Or, maybe you’re on the other side of the spectrum – maybe you’re just starting out and need to know where to start. Heck, everyone could use a little help! And what better way than to get your information on-the-go than with podcasts!

According to Nielsen ratings, over 60 million homes in the US listen to podcasts.
