There are plenty of great social media marketing blogs, content marketing blogs, and the like, but you can’t exactly read on your morning commute if you’re behind the wheel. Or while you’re in the shower, or when you’re cleaning your house, or going for a run. That’s where podcasts come in.
Whether you want to learn how to drive more traffic to your blog, discover the latest and greatest social media management tools, or get the creative juices flowing to come up with effective blog post ideas, podcasts fuel you with great ideas when reading isn’t practical. Pop in some earbuds, and you’re a multi-tasking powerhouse.
The problem: There are hundreds of great marketing podcasts! Where to start? What do you most need to know? Which ones should you prioritize?
We’re here to help. We’ve pulled 50 of the best marketing podcasts – most still broadcasting, plus a few can’t-miss archived podcasts – to get you started on all things marketing, from general business concepts and inbound marketing, to search engine optimization and content marketing. And we’ve categorized them all, to boot.
So, take your pick: Daily podcasts, twice-weekly podcasts, weekly podcasts, and even monthly podcasts. Podcasts delivered in 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or 60 minutes. Podcasts with expert interviews and podcasts that stick strictly to a Q&A format. There’s something (and often, several somethings) here for everyone. Including you!
