Host: James Carbary & the Sweetfish Team
Duration/Frequency: 20 to 30 minutes daily
What we like about this: "We've interviewed names you've probably heard previously... But it's likely that you've never heard of the majority of our guests. This is because most of our conversations aren't writers and professional speakers, they're in the trenches managing sales and marketing teams. They're developing strategies, and experimenting with tactics, they're building the most rapidly growing B2B firms in the world."

We love HTML0: The ENERGY and passion. Will Barron stands out from all other hosts of sales podcasts as a guy who is truly invested in the subjects and topics he does (this could be the reason it's the top-rated B2B sales show). Barron spends each podcast interviewing the top thought leaders in sales as well as professionals, and gleaning to share their top sales advice and stories, and he is able to do it with aplomb. Episodes are accessible as video available on the Salesman website, and the ability to observe his body language adds the already excellent podcast.

After listening to a few episodes, it's obvious it is Matt Heinz knows his stuff (and also knows how to talk to people). He selects the top interviewees for specific subjects and is a master at questioning them in a way that gets every ounce of valuable information from their answers.
