1: How To Build A Business Through Blogging And Podcasting With Todd Cochrane

I love listening to podcasts. Pick a topic, choose a show, listen when you want to. The format allows you to get to know the hosts and the interviewees. It\'s why I have wanted to create my own show. In fact in 2015, I created two of them. The first one outlines the steps you can take to get media exposure for yourself or your company. You can listen to those episodes here. The second one allows me to ask questions - a lot of them. The entrepreneurs I\'m talking with are standouts in their industries - tech, marketing, communications, product licensing - and they have agreed to share their strategies to success. I\'m so thrilled to have Todd Cochrane on the show. He\'s a podcaster, the creator of GeekNewsCentral, a blogger, and the owner of RawVoice, which is well known for its Blubrry Powerpress plug-in for podcasters.
