The Duct Tape Marketing Podcast

John Jantsch started The Duct Tape Marketing Podcast back in 2005, which makes it one of the longest-running marketing podcasts in existence. Over 1,200 episodes later, it is still going strong with weekly releases. The format is straightforward: Jantsch interviews authors, consultants, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders for about 20 to 25 minutes each episode. That tight runtime is one of the show's best features. You get a focused conversation without the filler that pads out so many hour-long interview shows. Jantsch's background is in small business marketing consulting, and that lens shapes every conversation. The questions are practical and grounded. He consistently steers guests toward advice that a business owner with a small team and a limited budget could actually implement. Topics rotate through SEO, content marketing, social media strategy, email marketing, business growth, and whatever new tools or trends are worth paying attention to. The guest list over the years reads like a who's who of marketing and business authors. If someone has written a book about marketing, sales, or entrepreneurship, they have probably sat down with Jantsch at some point. The show has a 4.6 rating from over 230 reviews, and listeners consistently praise the actionable takeaways. If you are a small business owner, marketing consultant, or agency owner who wants reliable weekly insights in a compact format, Duct Tape Marketing has been delivering exactly that for nearly two decades.
