Podcasting on MyVenturePad

April 30, 2008

I’ve done a lot of radio spots and interviews over the years, but last week I recorded my first official podcast.

Actually, I didn’t have to do anything but talk; Robin Fray Carey, founder and chief operating officer of Social Media Today, interviewed me for the business site MyVenturePad.

It was great fun. I got to yammer on about taxes. I enjoyed it, and the hubby was glad that for a while he got a break as someone else listened to me!

You can read Robin’s very kind introduction of me here, or you can cut right to the audio portion and listen to the podcast here.

While you’re at MyVenturePad (MVP) listening to my mellifluous voice, take some time to peruse all the other offerings. The site is full of regular contributors (including moi) who offer lots of insight on how you can make your small business a success.

I particularly want to note MVP’s upcoming webinar on business software, "Growing Pains: Is Your Business Software Dragging You Down?" A panel of experts will be on hand and participants can submit their questions for some wise answers on Monday, May 5, starting at 1 p.m. Eastern time.

Here’s the webinar’s synopsis blurb:

Many growing companies experience the frustration of not having enough flexibility in their accounting systems, or not being able to use their systems effectively when they increase revenue from more varied sources and clients, or when they need to integrate with other business applications. This free webinar will discuss recent findings from a special MVP/Techdirt study, as well as take your questions and comments.

Panelists will include Barbara Weltman, author and publisher of "Big Ideas for Small Business;" Manju Bansal, director of Solution Marketing, SAP Labs; and Grier Graham, vice president or Sales and Business Development for Techdirt. My podcast interviewer Robin Fray Carey will moderate.

It’s free, so if you have time Monday and are looking for some accounting software advice, tune in. You can register in advance here.

Tax Season 2026 Continues!

We made it. Tax Day 2025 is finally over. For most of us. When the filing season started on Jan. 26, millions who were expecting refunds filed immediately. Most of us got our returns to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15. But plenty of taxpayers also got extensions. They are looking at an Oct. 15 filing deadline.

Those procrastinating filers aren’t a problem. In fact, the IRS appreciates taxpayers who take time to fill out their 1040 forms correctly. It also is grateful that tax submissions are spread out a bit, especially now that the IRS is a leaner agency. Processing returns is easier when they arrive throughout the year instead of in massive bunches.

But enough about Uncle Sam’s tax collection issues. The focus now is on all y’all who filed for extensions, giving you another six months to complete your return. Since your new mid-October due date will be here before you know it, let’s get started now on meeting it.

The ol’ blog is here to help you finish up your extended Form 1040. You can start with January’s tax tips page, which has links to the rest of the year’s tips by-month collections. You also can peruse various tax categories for more tailored advice by clicking on the More Tax Posts drop-down menu at the top of this (and every) page.

And to make sure you don’t miss your new filing deadline, the count-down clock below will let you know just how much time you to file by Oct. 15. At the latest.e. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)
