podcast-marketing-best

    A few months ago hardly anyone outside of Baltimore had heard of Adnan Syed, Hae Min Lee, and Jay Wilds. Today, thanks to the success of Sarah Koenig and her groundbreaking Serial podcast, Adnan, Have Min, and Jay are household names across the world. The 12-episode series saw hundreds of thousands of people log on, subscribe, download, and follow Koenig as she explored the twists and turns of a decade old murder case in Maryland. The Guardian called Serial “a new genre in audio storytelling” but, at it core, it remains a podcast, one of many thousands competing for the attention of information-hungry consumers.

    Whatever your interests there is likely a podcast out there for you and, when it comes to the topic of marketing, there are plenty to choose from. Here are five marketing podcasts that we at DOZ find interesting, informative, and engaging.

    Best Daily Marketing Podcast: Jay Today

    Majay-today-podcastrketing guru Jay Baer presents the Jay Today podcast most days during the week. It’s available as either an audio or a video download and Baer describes it as an opportunity for him to give listeners ‘a piece of his mind, three minutes at a time’. Baer draws on his personal experiences to offer practical tips on increasing customer engagement, delivering value to consumers and end-users, and winning lifetime users. It’s short, it’s almost always funny, and it’s a great way to get inspired about your marketing mission every day.
