384 Episodes Later: The Best Business Podcast Episodes for Entrepreneurs, Marketing & Growing Your Brand
If you've spent any time around The Social Snippet, you'll know that podcasting is close to our hearts. Community with Kristina Bartold began in 2022, and we’ve recently hit a milestone that we're pretty proud of: 384 episodes and counting!
Community is an award-winning business podcast for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and content creators who want to grow their business, expand their audience, and build a network that actually feels like a community. Hosted by our very own Kristina Bartold, the podcast features candid conversations and breaks down what it takes to create value-driven impact in an increasingly digital world.
With that many episodes in the archive, we thought it was time to pull together a little catalogue! We understand it can feel a bit overwhelming when you're deciding where to begin, so we created a friendly starting point: a handful of episodes to press play on first, depending on what you're working on right now!
Let’s jump in!
If You Want To Grow Your Podcast
If launching or growing a podcast is on your list this year, start with The Podcast Growth Playbook feat. Kylee Chandler. Kristina and Kylee walk through practical, doable strategies for turning listeners into leads and clients, which is really what most hosts are hoping for. It's tactical without being overwhelming, and you'll likely leave with an idea or two you can try that same week.
Tune into How To Get Your Podcast Found, Heard & Ranked: Secrets To Podcast SEO if you want to rank on charts, reach the right people, and optimize your previous episodes too! Kristina and Ben get into the podcast SEO basics that so many hosts overlook, from writing titles that actually rank to using tags and categories the right way.
If You're Ready To Be The Face Of Your Brand
So many of us would rather hide behind a logo, but the truth is that people buy from people. Stop Hiding Behind Your Brand is a lovely nudge on why founder-led brands are standing out right now, especially as our feeds fill up with polished, AI-generated content. Pair it with How to Create Authentic Content That AI Can’t Replicate For Your Business or Personal Brand, to dive into why your authenticity is your greatest competitive advantage.
Another great listen is Building a personal brand that evolves with you feat. Mallory Rowan. The talented entrepreneur and personal finance educator breaks down how you can learn from your personal journey without your own brand putting you in a box. If you’ve ever felt stagnant in life and wish to start feeling more aligned, this episode is perfect for you.
If You Want Marketing You Can Feel Good About
Not every sales tactic has to feel a little icky. In our episode on ethical marketing with Evie Tavares, we get into what it actually looks like to market while staying rooted in trust. It's a warm, honest conversation, and a wonderful listen if you've ever felt torn between growing your business and staying true to your values.
The Real Currency of Business Pt.1: Community, Relationships & Asking For What You Need is another great take on marketing that is done right and feels right. This episode is full of wisdom on leading with generosity while still charging what you’re worth. To keep the momentum going, find Part 2 here.
If You Only Have Ten Minutes
Short on time? We got you! The Trial Reels Strategy You Didn't Know You Needed is one of those episodes that pays off fast. Kristina and Maria break down how trial reels can quietly boost your Instagram (and your marketing as a whole), and honestly, we're still a little surprised more people aren't using them!
Another gem is our Why You Should Show Up Online When You're Most Busy episode. Kristina gets real about why showing up online in your busiest season is a magnet for more opportunities and building authority online. This pep talk is just what you need to share your work and let your audience see the magic you’ve been creating, especially when they’re watching you the most.
The Guest Conversations We Love
Community wouldn't be Community without our talented guests. Over the years, we've been so lucky to sit down with brilliant people like Jaclyn Johnson, Lori Harder, and Jordan Gill, each bringing their own take on building businesses and cultivating relationships. These interviews are equal parts inspiring and genuinely useful, and they're a great reminder that behind every thriving business is a real person who started somewhere too.
How Relationships Led To Suneera Madhani’s Billion Dollar Exit is one of our favourite guest episodes this year! The powerhouse entrepreneur and community builder sat down with Kristina to discuss community, courage, and building a brand that's truly your own. This episode is perfect for the aspiring leader in you!
There's something really encouraging about hearing how founders navigated the messy middle and started moving the needle forward. In What Every Scaling Entrepreneur Needs to Know in 2026 with Alli Arruda, Kristina and Alli reflect on the lessons they have learned along the way and showcase how business owners can expand their networks and increase their visibility. You will definitely walk away with a fresh idea and a motivational boost after this episode.
