Erin Blaskie Podcast - To Barter or Not to Barter | In the past six months, I have been approached by a few different companies who were interested in a barter agreement.

Since I have been receiving more and more of these requests, I wanted to open up the discussion around bartering. This episode explores bartering. | 1/12/11 | Free | View In iTunes |

Erin Blaskie Podcast - Industry Certification B.S. | Before you jump down my throat on the idea that industry certifications are b.s., I’m talking about these industry certifications that pop up whenever a trending or new industry is created. Ie: the virtual assistant certification program, the social media guru certification, etc. These certifications are complete BS depending on WHY you are doing the certification.

Erin Blaskie Podcast - To Follow or Not to Follow | One of the things I get asked often is, “Out of the people who follow you on Twitter, how do you determine who to follow back?” Prior to a few weeks ago, that answer was, “Everybody.” I had this notion that I would follow everyone who would follow me and then use lists to suss out who I really wanted to listen to versus those that I wanted to tune into sometimes. Unfortunately, that method turned out to be the incorrect path for me. This episode explores how to analyze people before following them on Twitter. | 12/22/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Erin Blaskie Podcast - Finding Clients | I actually covered today’s topic in a blog post but it was so often referenced that I wanted to also cover it in the podcast to further explore this concept. The “If You Build It, They Will Come” Idea Most entrepreneurs freeze up at the point of having to sell their product and / or service. They have worked tirelessly on educating themselves about their industry, the skills they’ll need to service clients, product development, etc. but very few people think about what they will do when it comes time to stop working ON the business and turn to working IN the business.
