PodUp Podcast

Thrilled to welcome BJ Smith to the PodUp Podcast.  BJ is an ecommerce marketing coach, educator and podcaster on the Social Impact Show and Marketing Group Therapy.  BJ and I worked together producing podcasts for the Advertising Week conference this year.  We talk about that experience, why podcasting at an event could make sense for your group or business, and what podcasters have to do in order to more effectively market their podcasts. 

Reminder to check out the brand new podcast from MPassy productions, ‘Radiate with Betty Liu.’  This is an an excellent interview series I have been working on that you are not going to want to miss.

**Apologies, I know I said I’d be off one week and it wound up being two.  The move and some other things just kept me from producing a great episode last week so I took the extra time to make sure I delivered quality content. Thank you for coming back***

 

Class is in session with this week’s guest Jeff Bradbury, founder and creator of Teachercast.net.  This an amazing podcast, teacher, educator, blogger and all around nice guy.  He offers some excellent advice on getting started, growing your community and maintaining a work-life balance to make your publishing venture a success.   

We also catch up on some podcasting news that happened in the last few weeks including word that Google Play will start offering podcasts and how to submit your RSS feed, as well as word that Ringr is releasing a new version of the software with new features.  

Plus, super excited to announce the Radiate Podcast with Betty Liu.  This is an an excellent interview series I have been working on that you are not going to want to miss.

Prepared to get motivated as we bring Scott Doucet to the PodUp Podcast.  He is the host of the Edge-ucation podcast.  It’s a show focused on helping folks live a motivated, adventurous and passionate life.  The reason we are excited to bring Scott on is that he actually took his digital show and is now getting on the radio.  It’s a fantastic story about how he made that connection and there’s a lot you can learn about your venture from hearing it.   

We also check out some news that came out last week suggesting that a television series is in the work about the hit podcast Serial.  This would be another huge boost to the podcasting world and something we would be very excited to see.

This week, we have a podcast veteran and a super successful entrepreneur, Jonathan Rivera on PodUp Podcast.  He is the host of the 'Making Agents Rich' show and creator of The Podcast Factory, which features his show along with The Doberman Dan Show and The Ben Settle Show.
