You probably expect to see the usual suspects on this list… spending too much time on Facebook, pinning too many recipes.
But this list is a little different. These are productivity suckers of the worst kind because they are things we have to deal with every day. So while you can take a “just log out of Facebook” approach to those other kinds of distraction, the ones I want to talk about are in front of you whether you like it or not.
And it’s easy to let them get out of control.
In the week before the 100th episode of the Web.Search.Social Podcast, my friend Alisa Meredith suggested that I should write an article about what I’ve learned. So here are the 10 things I learned about business and productivity from 100 episodes of podcasting.
It took us a while to get started but some eight months later, after buying a bunch of equipment, setting it up and connecting eight billion wires… we made it to episode 100.
Along the way we learned a lot, and not just about knobs vs. sliders, but about planning, promotion, content creation and the audience we do it for. So as we cross the 100th milestone this week, we want to reflect on what we learned so that if you create any kind of content for your business you can take something away to help on your own journey.

We talk about our breakup with iTunes and some podcatcher apps we like. Plus we discuss the effects of physical health on your business and productivity. Finally, we issue a productivity challenge to you with a free downloadable action item list.
Today we record live from a BNI meeting at Tapeo restaurant in Hazlet New Jersey. It’s just one of many chapters of this international networking group but it will give you a look at how meetings work, what to expect, how to get referrals and more.
