The Business-Podcasting.Com Business Podcast - Episode 1

Hello and welcome to the Business-Podcasting.com Business Podcast.

I'm Michael Lehman, Director of Podcasting at www.Business-podcasting.com and here's what's new in business podcasting:

First up, Apple Computer has discovered business podcasting!

SEM Pro, a site that covers search engine marketing, reports that Apple is promoting the benefits of podcasting via email:

"Promoting your business just got easier. Create a podcast with GarageBand, post it to iTunes in minutes, and reach customers, clients, and partners in a whole new way. Chefs are sharing recipes. Maternity store owners are giving the lowdown on diaper bags. And other professionals are airing business discussions, marketing new products and services, and keeping people informed."

Their tag line is "Your newest marketing tool: your own words".

Our opinion is that Business Podcasting is not just about marketing but, just as with blogging, the biggest impact is that it truly enables your customers to get to know you and your company as human beings.  One of the fundamental human needs is connection and business podcasting is a powerful way to connect.

Next, our latest client, Personify Design (www.personifydesign.com), has just launched their business podcast.  You'll find it included in the www.business-podcasting.com RSS feed as well as shortly it will be available via the Personify Design blog.

Finally, today we salute http://www.smallbizpod.co.uk/ the small business podcast, SmallBizPod, who've recently published their 26th episode which talks about how to expand your business thorough international trade.
