Page: Feed: --- ## [B2B Podcasting: The Only Listener You Actually Need](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-08-14 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ If you've got a B2B podcast and you're waiting for the feed to do the work, this episode reframes the whole thing. Publishing gets the episode into the world. It doesn't get it into the one pair of ears that matters. Because your podcast's most valuable listen this year won't come from someone discovering you. It'll come from one prospect, three or four weeks into a decision, who gets sent one… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/de6e559d-57d1-4979-8940-1e9add763c34.mp3) ## [These are your branded podcast's next four episodes](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-08-07 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ If you're planning your next few B2B podcast episodes off a content calendar, you're commissioning content that nobody asked for. That list isn't a commissioning list. It's a list of things that exist. Listicles. Generic advice aimed at nobody in particular. Ideas that came from a brainstorm rather than from a buyer. I'm Neal Veglio, and in this episode of B2B Podcasting Insights, I'm handing you… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/abc7185c-e979-474e-9d42-837692618eab.mp3) ## [B2B Founders: Have You Written Your One Winning Sentence Yet?](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-07-31 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ If you've got a B2B podcast and you're 30, 40, 60 episodes in without much to show for it, the problem probably isn't your microphone, your cadence or your cover art. It's that nobody ever wrote the sentence. Most branded podcasts get built like a content marketing task with tickable boxes. Format, length, weekly or fortnightly, video or not video. All of those are construction details, and… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/6561466d-11be-40c3-aba1-1462b901ac9e.mp3) ## [Following 'Best Practice' is KILLING Your B2B Podcast!](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-07-24 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ Everyone hands you the same B2B podcast checklist: publish weekly, grow your audience, keep it short, hook them in the first 15 seconds, book big-name guests, repurpose everything. Follow all of it and you'll build a podcast that's technically excellent, sounds exactly like everyone else's — and sells nothing. Hi, I'm Neal Veglio, founder of Podknows Podcasting and in this episode I'm making the… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/7da35b84-dcb1-448a-967e-90c4317bda91.mp3) ## [Your B2B Podcast Might Already Be Dead (a branded podcast True Crime story)](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-07-17 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ Forty-seven episodes. A tasteful logo, serif font, muted teal. Published like clockwork every Thursday at 6am. And in 18 months, not one listener ever became a customer. The host never noticed. Nobody did. Here's the uncomfortable bit: from the inside, a podcast that's doing absolutely nothing for your business and one that converts brilliantly look almost identical. Same download graphs. Same… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/efe079d1-8361-40eb-bac2-8d1d82be4eee.mp3) ## [Your B2B Podcast Isn't Broken.

I'm Neal Veglio, and in this episode of B2B Podcasting Insights I tell you about Jane — a real founder, with a made-up name — who spent £20,000 on her podcast and got £6,000 back.

Publishing weekly feels responsible. It looks good internally. It gives the team something to point at. But you can be extremely consistent at doing the wrong thing.

I'm Neal Veglio, and in this episode of B2B Podcasting Insights I break down why "you must add video" has quickly become the default advice in B2B podcasting — and why following it without a reason often gives you a more expensive podcast that… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/df49d684-a4ce-48f3-bcfc-3acd160cfbcd.mp3) ## [Your Episode Nobody Shared Was the One That Actually Worked!](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-06-19 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ If you've published a B2B podcast episode you were genuinely proud of, then watched it land to four downloads and two likes you suspect might be bots, this one's for you. I'm Neal Veglio, and in this episode of B2B Podcasting Insights I break down why your best episode probably got almost zero shares, what that does and doesn't mean, and why publishing is not the finishing line in your content… [Listen](https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/2c61aff8-f4e0-4f79-ad3b-da7d35f80913.mp3) ## [I did NOT see this coming - a surprising benefit of attending The Podcast Show 2026](https://podknows.co.uk) _2026-05-22 · B2B Podcasting Insights - business strategy podcast for founders and brands_ Yes, I attended The Podcast Show. Yes I had both good and bad things to say.

I really did NOT see this coming. http://podknows.co.uk/contact (F ROM LINKEDIN ) The Podcast Show 2026 was ultimately epic. Let me go deeper, fam.

They took over an old gas station in Austin for a back-to-school event: they cleaned out parents’ cars, handed out free snacks and branded merch, and turned everyday stress into a shareable experience.

Not so fast!](https://blog.bigpromotions.net/captivate-podcast/185) _2025-10-09 · The Merch Drop_ When is “ask forgiveness, not permission” a good idea? Baggu found out the hard way. At their new San Francisco store opening, the sustainable bag brand gave away BART-branded water bottles, hats, and stickers — without permission from Bay Area Rapid Transit. It wasn't really BART merch, Baggu thought it was OK to knock off the BART logo and make it their own. Not good! The stunt went viral, drew… [Listen](https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/episodes.captivate.fm/episode/b1ecc4e1-66d6-499b-947b-b8b0edf028f3.mp3) ## [King's Hawaiian O'Hare "Soft Wear" Merch Swap](https://blog.bigpromotions.net/captivate-podcast/184) _2025-10-02 · The Merch Drop_ King's Hawaiian just used branded merch to market a logo refresh at Chicago O’Hare Airport. Their team set up a booth with private changing rooms, and travelers swapped the clothes they were wearing for a free “soft-wear” sweatsuit. King's also gave out snacks, plus a travel pillow and eye mask. All traded clothing went to a Chicago charity.
