Your website then becomes an audio business card that can capture people's attention. This is what the <a href= "http://vrworkforcestudio.com/category/podcast/" target= "_blank"><strong>VR Workforce Studio Podcast</strong></a> Does. Here is a note from Rick Sizemore on how he got a big guest, who then got his podcast in front of a big audience. We are all excited here in Virginia because the NRA is holding their fall conference here in Richmond. No not the gun NRA but the National Rehabilitation Association. We have been working with noted Rehabilitation Professional, Sam Rothrock, who is going to be at the conference talking about how social media and particularly podcasting is becoming a powerful tool in workforce development and disability employment. He asked us where he could get some data on podcasting so we were quick to point him to the <a href= "http://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/452" target= "_blank"><strong>School of Podcasting Episode 452</strong></a> with all those wonderful stats and the show notes filled with all the data we podcasters low to talk about. So while this is going on we got a call from Scott Dunnell with the Commission on Rehabilitation Counselor Certification which happens to be the worlds largest organization certifying rehabilitation professionals and counselors. We were able to get Scott on the <a href= "http://vrworkforcestudio.com/category/podcast/" target="_blank">VR workforce studio</a> podcast alongside our Big Inspiration Showcase with Brian Evans. Brian, an executive with Bank of America, <a href="http://vrworkforcestudio.com/the-brian-evans-story/" target="_blank">tells the story of his near death motorcycle accident</a>, his recovery and returning to work at the bank through assistive technology and voc rehab. This gave Scott the perfect opportunity to reflect on an inspiring rehab counseling story and to discuss CRCC's launch of their new e university. CRCC posted the episode on their website and its getting lots of downloads from their membership, many of whom will be at NRA along with CRCC. So because of our podcast, many of the attendees will have heard about the VR Workforce Studio Podcast from a major conference exhibitor who will be just across the hall from a presentation where clips from our podcast will be part of the discussion on how podcasting can help people with disabilities, professionals and employers who are concerned with disability employment and vocational rehabilitation. So through one episode we have become involved in a major conference with attendees before they arrive will be part of promoting a major exhibitors products and support on of the key presentations.

It gave him purpose. <a href= "http://www.smodcast.com/channel/tesdpodcast?audio=300" target= "_blank"><strong>That podcast</strong></a><a href= "http://www.smodcast.com/channel/tesdpodcast"></a> made Bryan feel great as he got feedback from his audience. This podcast later turned into the TV Show <a href="http://www.amc.com/shows/comic-book-men" target="_blank"><strong>Comic Book Men</strong></a>. Another story Kevin related was of his friend <a href= "https://twitter.com/JayMewes" target="_blank"><strong>Jason Mewes</strong></a> who Kevin had cut out of his life due to him being addicted to Heroin. Kevin talked Jason into doing a podcast called "Jay and Silent Bob Get Old" and the first few episodes Jason shared about his addiction and the podcast was focused on keeping him sober.

Its a podcast where people finish the sentence, because of my podcast_____. Today you're going to hear my story. I had been podcasting for 10 years. My background is in training, and I've been helping people understand technology and software for over 20 years. The current director of podcasting for the New Media Expo had stepped down and they needed a new one.  Behind the scenes, the man (Rick Calvert) that ran the New Media Expo approached Libsyn. Libsyn is a podcast media hosting and their VP of Podcast Relations knows everybody in the space. So when Rick asked Rob who he thought might be a good fit, Rob answered, "What do you think about Dave Jackson." Rick then went to Blubrry and spoke to their CEO and asked him for some names. Todd answered, "What do you think about Dave Jackson?". Rick then went to Spreaker and spoke with Rob Greenlee. What did Rob say? You guessed it, "What do you think about Dave Jackson?' How did these podcasting companies know me? Because they all listened to my podcast. The podcast positioned me as an expert. It allowed me to show I was competent, and it also allowed me to interview all of them in the past and start building a relationship. So why start a podcast?
