Grasshopper New Media Keeping Me Busy With New Podcasts and Upcoming Video Content

October 28, 2006 by Ben Yoskovitz

Two days without posting here. Uh oh. Let’s hope people don’t abandon me!

I’ve been “quiet” for a couple of reasons. Mostly, things at Grasshopper New Media are picking up and keeping me crazy busy.

In the last few days we’ve initiated several great projects that will go live soon.

The first is Small Biz Interviews which is a spinoff of The Great Big Small Business Show. Recently at GBSBS, Becky McCray did an interview with Pat Matthews, CEO of Webmail.us, an email hosting/management company. It’s a great interview; Becky does a good job of asking important (non-fluff!) questions and Pat’s answers can help any small business or entrepreneur starting out.

Small Biz Interviews will be focused on doing interviews with CEOs, business gurus and veteran entrepreneurs, aiming to help small businesses gain some great insight.

The second project is The Creative Venture, which will be a weekly podcast (and video blog) for creative people trying to earn income from their creative talents. It will be hosted by Tony Clark from Success From The Nest. Tony’s a software developer, consultant, coach, entrepreneur and stay at home dad. Lots of creative people (or as Tony calls them “creatives”) have amazing talent but can’t bridge the gap to creating practical, money-making businesses. Tony and The Creative Venture are going to help.

Oh, Tony’s also a cartoonist. The cartoons on his blog are his own creations…very cool.

I don’t want to forget The Livin’ La Vida Low-Carb Show from Jimmy Moore. Jimmy’s done one episode, which has already seen over 200 downloads! Jimmy lost 200 pounds with a low-carb lifestyle and if you’re into low-carb and getting healthy, Jimmy’s going to motivate and inspire you.

There are other projects in the hopper too, we’re bringing in new content, new talent and a ton of fun. It’s a blast.
