We launch our new podcast show 'Business Ears' – The North West's Business Podcast

As you may know, our business is all about ‘communication’ – we’re constantly looking for ways to develop our knowledge and expertise, particularly in the use of new methods of communicating such as Web 2.0 and social media. So much so, that I can proudly announce the launch of our new weekly business podcast show…

Businees_ears2_300x300_4 Business Ears was launched on the 5th August as a weekly show featuring interviews, advice and tips from the North West’s most successful business people. We profile organisations of all shapes and sizes from start-up entrepreneurs to the Chief Executives of the region’s largest businesses. The show is free to listen to so check it out at www.businessears.co.uk

The show may be new (we’ve actually posted 3 shows so far), but we have already been selected by iTunes to be promoted in their ‘new and notable’ section…a pretty big coup so soon!
