Where my gamers at? Asking because it occurred to me that my life as a video gamer and my profession as a marketer have definite overlaps.

For the full dive into all the ways gaming and marketing go hand in hand, check out this week's Really Social blog on the topic.
Since you're listening to this podcast, maybe creating your own B2B podcast is on the brain but you feel like you can't get started. Try creating a LinkedIn Audio event! I listened in on one for the first time this week and it seems like an easy gateway into regular podcasting for your brand. Create a LinkedIn Audio event with your personal profile or company page... More on that in the weekly B2Bboop newsletter. (scroll down a bit for the link)
