There has been quite a gap between episodes 85 and 86. The reasons for that are plentiful, but one of the biggest is that I’ve been doing a lot of speaking engagements that have taken away the time I would normally have spent on this podcast. For this episode, I wanted to make available the audio from one of those presentations. Over the past several months I’ve presented at several of the monthly New Media Seminars, organized by Madison + Main , a new media and advertising firm. My portion of the half-day workshop centered on how social media and social networking have changed everything about PR. I did have a slideshow presentation during this presentation. I believe the audio can stand alone, but if you want to follow along with the slides, you can do so below, where I’ve embedded them using SlideShare.

Between hardware like mobile phones and new social media tools, there’s so much new technology coming out every day that it can be hard to keep track. If you’re able to harness some of these tools, however, it can make your work more profitable and sometimes even easier. The topic of this episode is “new tech for ‘old’ jobs”, or using technology to make it easier to do jobs that have been around for a while. We talk a little bit about a handful of examples, and then bring in our guest, David Marks from PreQuence, a company that helps Realtors harness cell phone texting technology.

It’s tough to hire new employees these days. It may seem like a strange statement, and it’s not top on the list of concerns of most people, but it’s something to consider. If you’re one of the small businesses that’s actually thriving in this weak economy, and you put an ad in the newspaper that announces an opening at your company, it’s very likely that you’ll get 100, 200, or even 500 resumes in response. How do you sift through that kind of volume? This week’s guest on Startup BizCast is Brad Smart from Topgrading , a firm that helps companies find and hire the best employees. He has outstanding advice for not only sifting through the resumes, but also how to make sure you only get the top performers as applicants in the first place.

There’s a large portion of the population that would probably rather take a bath in a tub full of those newly-discovered cyanide spitting pink millipedes than speak in front of a room full of people. Public speaking is one of the top fears out there, but when you’re asked to talk about yourself and your business in front of potential customers, you simply should not turn it down. This week’s guest is public speaker, author, and public speaking coach Rich Hopkins . He has some great advice on how to nail that speaking opportunity. Here’s a piece of bonus advice that Rich says he forgot to mention during the interview: “Remember that the audience doesn’t know what you are going to say. Don’t get caught up in being ‘perfect’ – its the easiest way to throw yourself off track, and lose credibility as a speaker. Speak about what you know, and you will be able to go from Point A to Point B, without the audience knowing you skipped to Point C in between! ” Also in this week’s episode, listener-submitted advice from Frances Jones of Cole Media Management on how to record your voice mail greeting properly!

Type “about:config” into the address bar and hit return. Scroll down and look for the following entries: network.http.pipelining network.http.proxy.pipelining network.http.pipelining.maxrequests Normally the browser will make one request to a web page at a time. When you enable pipelining it will make several at once, which really speeds up page loading. 2. Alter the entries as follows: Set “network.http.pipelining” to “true” Set “network.http.proxy.pipelining” to “true” Set “network.http.pipelining.maxrequests” to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once. 3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it “nglayout.initialpaint.delay” and set its value to “0”. This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it receives. If you’re using a broadband connection you’ll load pages MUCH faster now!” Startup BizCast†s theme music is “Entrancedâ€� by Blake Emrys .

This week we tackle small business websites, and what they need. I go solo to discuss three different types of small biz sites, and the integral parts of each. Included are the online business card, the online store, and the social media hub.

ABC is a small business organization with a great website and print magazine chocked with wonderful information. Jim joins us to talk about five tips to help any entrepreneur.

A few weeks back I was one of the presenters in two different webinars from PRWeb . Each of the presentations was about small business marketing, and during each I talked about business blogging. And … after each I received a number of emails from people who were confused about how to do it. Since this seems to be at least a somewhat universal confusion, I decided to do an episode on the “how” and “why” of business blogging, even though I’ve covered the information here and there during this series. Note: There will be NO episode next week. I’ll be out of town speaking at a conference on Monday and Tuesday, and I just won’t have time to produce a show.

Local, state, and federal U.S. government contracts are NOT easy to get. However, they tend to bring in good money, particularly for small business owners who aren’t used to multi-thousand or million dollar deals. And, it’s unlikely our government is going to go out of business any time soon — a major consideration in this economy! This week’s guest on Startup BizCast is Gloria Berthold Larkin, president of TargetGov , a business that helps entrepreneurs through the government contract maze.

This week, I welcome a good friend and guest from the first handful of Startup BizCast episodes. The topic of the week is SEO for press releases. More and more people are catching on to the fact that news releases can be used for SEO purposes, but many people don’t know how to maximize the work put into writing the releases and posting them. Jiyan Wei is a product manager at online news release presswire PRWeb. He was my guest back in episode #7, and now he joins me for #70. Kind of symmetrical, don’t you think? One more note about Jiyan — for any new listeners who found this show after hearing my presentation at the PRWeb webinar … yes, this is the same Jiyan that was the moderator 🙂 Also this week, I have listener advice submitted via the “ Submit YOUR Advice ” form, and business news in the BizCast Brief.

Despite having a bigtime name behind them, businesses like McDonalds, Hair Cuttery, and Century 21 are all small businesses. They’re franchises, and most of the time they’re owned by someone in your area. There are challenges inherant to marketing a franchise small business, however, not the least of which is that people don’t often view them as being home grown. This week’s guest on Startup BizCast is Sherri Fishman from Fishman PR , a public relations firm that specializes in marketing franchisees and franchisers. She’ll have some tips on how you can work to get publicity for your franchise small business. NOTE: There was a bit of audio difficulty in this week’s episode. We had trouble with the interview phone line, which led to a ticking sound while Ms. Fishman talks. I attempted to filter it out, but it only made things worse. My apologies for the lapse in quality! Also this week, in the BizCast Brief … help for UK small businesses, the best places in Canada to have a small business, and things aren’t as bad as they seem economically!

Almost a year and a half ago, in episode five of Startup BizCast, I reviewed a list of online news release distribution services. These sites will post and distribute your news release across the web, bringing benefits like SEO and potential media coverage. Since it’s been so long since that episode, and a number of these sites have changed their services, I decided to revisit the subject with this update and re-review! Also, in BizCast Brief, small business owners upset with the Feds, the SBA ups its disaster loan rates, and Colorado targets CEOs. A word from our sponsor: Try GotoMeeting free for 30 days!

Fall isn’t a time when you normally think much about taxes … unless, that is, you filed for an extension back in April. If you did, that means your taxes are due next month.

We’ll discuss a variety of tax issues relevant to small business owners.
