Sounds of Success: Our Favorite Business Podcasts
As the year wraps up, we’re unpacking our Spotify Wrapped playlists at the ARM Creative office—exploring the genres that fueled our creativity throughout 2023. While tastes varied, a common interest tied our team together; a love of podcasts. From entrepreneurial endeavors to creative interests, ARM Creative staff indulged in podcasts this year. And we’re not alone. DemandSage reports that in 2023, “Over 205.5 million US citizens have listened to a podcast at least once. Approximately 41% of people in the USA tune into a podcast every month, and 28% do so weekly”. With numbers like that, chances are that you listen to podcasts as well—or listened to a podcast at least once this year.
Either way, we had some fun and compiled a list of marketing, social media, and design podcasts our team loves to save you time in your podcast search and jumpstart your new year.
