Great to be the first

This podcast is a valuable source for ideas for me already.
From the 3 episodes that are online now, I wrote down 4 suggestions to apply in my business.
Perpetual traffic is, after all, the lifeline for any business.
I am sure this podcast dedicated to this important subject helps me to stay informed on the developments in this field. And that I will get at least one valuable piece of content to use in building perpetual traffic to my own business projects.
Elisabeth van der Meer

PS: the contest itself started a proces and a challenge for me to open an account on I-tunes and ot find out how ot works. Just this adds to my explorations in the digital marketer world. Love it
