One of the things I’ve found running a digital marketing/software services company is it’s important to gather as much knowledge as possible. While a good book can go a long way in this regard I’ve found some of my best ideas and inspirations from podcasts. There’s something about being able to just subscribe to a show and consume it while you’re doing other things. That’s tough to do with a book, but audio for instance you can work out while listening to a great show. I’ve discovered or uncovered some of my best ideas through listening to shows like Mixergy or Smart Passive Income. Many times I wasn’t quite consciously paying attention but something caught my ear and I had to go back and listen again. That’s why I find a list like this pretty valuable.
While I don’t listen to every one of these shows all the time I do check them out here and there. Below is some of my favorite and top podcasts, especially if your looking for business advice or ideas:
