Vladcast #11 was the most popular Vladcast ever (yeah, four people!) – kind of ironic when you consider that it had nothing to do with IT and technology. I am not sure how, but I confused a lot of you into thinking I’m some motivational guru – far from it. But I did get asked at one point just who motivates me and if you’ve seen my SBS Show and Vladcast projects you’ll see that I am very motivated by people that are successful and willing to share their formula for the greater good. That in turn is what I do with the Vladville and OWN each and every day. But I am not a great motivational speaker so I wanted to let someone else, far more eloquent than I am, explain to you just what I believe. Hope you find the 7 minutes very inspiring.

Vladcast on determination. For all those of you that asked where I get the energy to do what I do and how I get this done. You might want to turn your speakers down a little though, this is the raw, uncensored Vlad. All you gotta remember is that if you gotta be a monkey…  (if this makes any bit of difference in your life please let me know)

• WWPC: What it really is

VladCast 6, The summary of experiences at Jeff Middleton’s ITPRO conference in New Orleans and the Microsoft TechEd - Why they matter to an SMB ITPRO!

Also a look ahead at Microsoft World Wide Partner Conference in Denver and about six minutes of how you can make this conference a success for your business.

Warning: This is the heaviest VladCast I’ve ever produced, just shy of 20 minutes. This might not be something you want to hear if you’ve had a rough day, it discusses adult situations in a serious business setting and dispells some of the myths you may have heard about the WWPC and TechEd. So if you’re content living in your little box, this is a podcast to skip. If you’re striving to improve yourself and your business… this is the best 20 minutes of your day.
