SmallBizPod doing well

It’s nice to see Alex’s SmallBizPod doing well. He’s picked up a sponsor - Bibby Financial Services - and his icon is prominent on the front page of the UK iTunes podcast section, propelling him up the UK business section charts. SmallBizPod is one of the very few high quality indie podcasts coming out of the UK, with a lot of work going into original material and interviews. It stands out among a sea of dross, of backroom pods, and of unedited rambling about nothing where four letter words count for humour. Alex has some quaint views about UK banks - he used to do the PR for one and has convinced himself that they are gentle and kind institutions that take your money out of the goodness of their hearts - but otherwise he’s doing the UK small business scene a great service with his podcast and is showing the way forward.

    Thanks Hugh. Unlike StoryNory’s sustained assault on the upper reaches of the global iTunes charts, I suspect SmallBizPod’s elevation will be of the 15 minute of fame variety. Still, I’m enjoying it.

    I also enjoy the occasional barbs in your posts here too. I think the poor old podcasters come off worse than the banks in this one though … which can’t be right!

    If only I could watch those barbs, I might make a career in marketing yet!
