Customer Reviews
Worth watching atleast twice!
While the host was not instantly likeable, (I think in part due to the initial website hosting plugs he continued to give out in the beginning) I found myself agreeing with everything he had to say. Especially about commercials and TV ads being loud to the point of detrimental to their product. I for one, will change the channel the instant commercials come on because of how loud and obnoxious they are. Then I will switch back to my program after they've run through all the ads.
So overall, interesting points and ideas were given, the host just needs that "something else" to make his delivery a little more watchable.
Excellent Podcast!!!
I thought this was wonderful. Not too much, not over the top. Plenty to think on and work with. I'm gonna watch it again and take notes! It's that good!
The different segments give useful information to use on all aspects of your business. They are presented in a format that is easy to follow. I was really surprised to find that much information packed in that short time. Thanks!
Basics of Business
This is an excellent little podcast for going over the basics of building a business for beginning entrepeneurs. The host does a good job of presenting the material and points out some common things that those building their business may overlook. For instance he points out that branding is not just a logo on your business card - it's any extension of your business into other arenas. Your logo is not your brand.
