The average length/freq the time: 5 to 10 minutes, weekly
What we like about the format: Jeb has a extensive experience in sales however, the thing that caught our attention is the duration of his programs. Almost all of them fall between 5 and 10 minutes (apart from a few interviews). The host covers the essentials that need to be covered and then moves ahead. They're great for a quick listen when you're stuck or searching for advice regarding a particular sales topic.

Why we love this: "We've interviewed names you've probably heard previously... however, it's likely that you've never heard of the majority of our guests. The reason is that the majority of our interviews aren't with professionals, authors and speakers. they're in the trenches managing sales and marketing teams. They're implementing strategy, experimenting with tactics, they're building one of the fastest-growing B2B businesses worldwide."

Average length/frequency: 40 minutes, twice per week
What we like about it: The ENERGY and enthusiasm. Will Barron stands out from every other sales podcast host for being a man who is truly invested with the subject matter and interview he does (this may be why it's the world's most downloaded B2B sales-related podcast). Barron spends each podcast interviewing leading sales thought leaders and experts, asking them for their best sales tips and tales, and he is able to do it with aplomb. The episodes are also available as videos at the Salesman website. Being able to observe the way he speaks adds another dimension the already excellent podcast.

Matt Heinz finds the most qualified interviewees for specific subjects and is a master at questioning them in a way which gets the maximum amount of valuable information from them.
