In this episode of The Struggling Entrepreneur, we speak with Jason Van Orden, who is a successful entrepreneur with experience in:

- Real Estate Marketing and Online/Internet Marketing;

- Podcasting (as a podcaster and Podcasting consultant- especially with his show, The Podcasting Ungerground);

- Authoring a book, Promoting Your Podcast (Larstan Publishing, 2007);

- Education and Training–both in Podcasting and Internet Business and Marketing (with his other podcast show and offering, Internet Business Mastery);

- Music and composition: especially being a musician in a rock band, as well as writing some of his own music.

- Software Engineering and technical expertise in audio engineering.

We also delve into Jason’s perspective of the entrepreneur lifestyle and freedom of mobility. Of particular interest would be his initial decision to completely uproot his day job and move (as they say, “with bag and baggage”) to New York City, where he fell in love with that Metropolis and created another podcast series, Gotham Cast. And now, espeically interesting is his decision to move to Buenos Aires, Argentina in February, 2008, as part of his goals for living abroad.

In this episode of The Struggling Entrepreneur, we deliver an interview with Evo Terra, the co-author of the books from Wiley Publishing: Podcasting for Dummies and Expert Podcasting Practices for Dummies. He is also the creator of Podiobooks.com, as well as other entreprenurial ventures.

In particular, Evo takes us through his experience when he quit his structured job and committed himself to his venture as an entrepreneur. He also gives advice to aspiring entrepreneurs for both establishing a legal entity and outsourcing accounting and financial aspects of the business.

A lot of well-deserved recognition is given to Tee Morris, the other co-author of Podcasting for Dummies, the first edition (because the next edition will be coming out later in 2008). In addition, the final co-author of Expert Podcasting Practices for Dummies is Ryan Williams.

An insight into the hard-bound book and audiobook area of the publishing industry is given from the perspective of an author, and it is very interesting for a struggling entrepreneur.
