Cool Tool of the Week: Business Podcasts
Sunday October 12, 2008
There's nothing like curling up in a favourite chair with a hot beverage and reading. But let's face it - as a small business owner, there's not a lot of time for that! That's the great thing about podcasts; you can listen to them while you're doing other things.
My favourite business podcast is Anita Campbell's Small Business Radio. (You can listen live each Tuesday at 1:30 p.m. Eastern, but all the archives are available as podcasts.) I always hear something that I can use to make my business better and stronger.
Another podcast you might want to check out is the Alberta government's Podcasts for Business, a series of podcasts especially designed for business people in rural communities.

Here’s our market view on American stock market for 10th October, 2008
The stock market has collapsed – since Sept. 19 the DJIA is down 25% and the S&P 500 is down 28% and down 42% from a year ago.
How can this happen so quickly and so dramatically when so many good things have occurred? Oil is down to $82 a barrel; interest rates are very low; the dollar is up; valuation levels are extremely attractive among many blue chip stocks.
What’s the real problem? The problem that is killing the stock market is a lack of hope about the future.
Hope springs from optimism that is based on facts and history. Look at the history of America and really all of mankind. Life is full of setbacks and problems – that’s just the deal. But this too shall pass, as all scary periods have.
Doomsayers have been around forever and their batting average is zero. Buying stock is based on hope – hope for the future. If one doesn’t have hope, they shouldn’t be in this business.
So what is the best service we, as professionals, can provide for our clients?
