In 2018, businesses spent $497 million on podcast advertising in 2018, and it’s estimated that by 2020, podcast ad spend will go up to a whopping $1 billion. So, podcasting is clearly big business.

How do you launch a business podcast?
So, there are a few steps when it comes to launching a podcast for your business – and it all starts with thinking about your aim.

What are you trying to achieve from your podcast? Is it to build trust with customers, or to drive more awareness with new prospects? In my case, I wanted to better position myself as a leader in the sales enablement space – so in addition to my blog over at Contemsa and posting on LinkedIn, I wanted to have a few different streams of content where my audience could gain insights about sales enablement.

With that aim in mind, it was important that my podcast was not about selling anything. Instead, it was about sharing insights and tips on B2B sales enablement topics such as How to Involve Sales Teams in Your Sales Playbook Process, for example. As you can see in this example episode, I am not selling anything: I am giving away useful tips and support for my customers and prospects.

NotePage, Inc. is pleased to announce the compilation of an RSS extensions directory. RSS is the standard for online information and news syndication.

The RSS specification allows users to create and use their own custom elements (tags) in any RSS feed, by declaring a namespace. Namespace extensions allow for RSS feeds to be extended to include additional information. An RSS feed that uses a namespace will validate, just as a feed that does not include a namespace.

The namespace directory is a free information directory containing namespace extension details. The directory is designed to be a central repository for namespace extensions. The intent of the directory is to help prevent redundancy and assist users with the process of extending RSS 2.0.

The namespace directory contains detailed steps on creating a namespace extension. While anyone can create a namespace, users are encouraged to a specific and well-planned reason to do so. It is important to realize that RSS readers or RSS processing applications will be unable to use the namespace information unless they were specifically designed to support the custom information.

The directory currently contains popular namespaces like: iTunes, MediaRSS, and Microsoft Simple Lists. Companies with namespaces can submit their extensions by emailing webmaster@feedforall.com

Additional details related to the namespace directory can be found at: http://www.feedforall.com/directory-namespace.htm

NotePage, Inc., developers of the popular FeedForAll RSS feed editor, announced today that it has added educational video tutorials to the FeedForAll website. The video tutorials explain the ins and outs of RSS, podcasting, and the syndication of content on the Internet.

RSS is an acronym that stands for Really Simple Syndication. RSS is the de facto standard for syndicating content on the Internet. Podcasting expands on the RSS concept by adding audio and video elements to the RSS feed.

The video tutorials are designed to assist and educate both experienced webmasters and beginners about RSS feeds and podcasting. Each video tutorial guides the user in a step-by-step manner. The video tutorials are available free of charge, and the topics covered include How To Create A Basic RSS Feed, How To Create An iTunes-Compatible Podcast, How To Create A Video Podcast, Why Use RSS?, How To Optimize An RSS Feed, How To Convert RSS To HTML, and much much more.

Sure, maybe it's blasphemy to say that any new Volkswagen California camper van is better than the icons that came before it. But Volkswagen has worked quite hard to optimize the freshly launched California eHybrid 4Motion for smart, affordable, carefree road trips. Not only does the new camper bus pack standard all-wheel drive to master the slick conditions inevitable in van life, it boasts a virtually silent, zero-emissions electric range over 80 km (50 miles) per charge. And given it adds only a 6.5% premium over the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel California, why wouldn't a buyer go for the 4Motion PHEV?

Before the end of November, Royal Enfield will launch the Goan Classic 350, its fifth product on the J-series engine platform, following the Meteor, Classic, Hunter, and Bullet. The Goan Classic will be a funky-looking bobber-style motorcycle that will share most of its fundamentals with the Classic 350.

1. Riding position will be different from Classic 350’s
2. Will use the same engine as the other RE 350s
3. Could be the most expensive 350cc RE upon launch

Royal Enfield Goan Classic 350: details

Since the Goan Classic will use the same 349cc single-cylinder engine as the rest of the RE 350s, its peak output will most likely stand at 20hp and 27Nm of torque. Even the Goan Classic’s main frame is likely to be the same as the Classic 350. The differences are likely to be in the styling, paint options, and riding position.

F1 has announced a new 2025 season launch event where all 10 teams will unveil their livery on February 18, marking the start of the championship’s 75th anniversary year. Tickets will be available for fans to attend the event, which will be held at London’s The O2.

1. F1 2025 launch event tickets go on sale on November 15
2. All 20 drivers will be present

F1 2025 season launch tickets, livestream

All 10 F1 teams will be unveiling their 2025 season liveries at the event. An official statement shared by F1 says the event will also feature interviews with key figures from the sport – including the drivers and team principals – as well as entertainment segments and special guest presenters.

The event will take place on February 18 from 8pm-10pm GMT (1:30am-3:30am IST) and ticket prices range from £58 to £113 (around Rs 6,200-12,000). Tickets go on sale on Friday, November 15.

For fans who can’t attend the event in person, there will also be a livestream. Further details on this will be revealed in the coming weeks.

“For the first time we will bring together our fans, all 20 superstars of our sport and some very special guests to officially kick off our new season and mark our 75th year of racing,” said Stefano Domenicali, president and CEO of Formula 1.

“With 2025 set to be a classic season following all the drama so far for 2024, this is a fantastic opportunity for fans of all ages to experience up-close the incredible entertainment spectacle that is Formula 1.”

Will teams show their real cars?

It is very unlikely that teams will showcase their final 2025 contenders at the event.

2025 F1 pre-season testing will take place from February 26-28 in Bahrain. Given that most teams will not want to give away any major secrets ahead of this, we can expect the launch event to largely feature show cars simply sporting the new liveries. But this has already been the case for several years now, with majority of the teams opting to share cleverly concealed renders or displaying show cars during their individual launch events.

What about traditional F1 launches?

This replaces the standard pre-season build-up where teams usually hold their own launch events across several weeks. However, F1 hasn’t confirmed whether this will be a permanent addition. For now, it’s simply been billed as a special event to celebrate the championship’s 75th anniversary.

Mercedes-AMG has launched the new C 63 S E Performance in India at Rs 1.95 crore. The C 63 S E Performance marks AMG’s third new car launch this year and its third plug-in hybrid in India, following the S 63 E Performance and the GT 63 S E Performance. Bookings have opened today, and deliveries are expected from April 2025 onwards.

1. C 63 S E Performance pairs 476hp 4-cyl engine with 204hp motor
2. Gets sporty AMG-specific changes inside and outside
3. Buyers will get a complementary Nurburgring experience

Mercedes AMG C 63 S E Performance powertrain

Gone is the V8 engine that used to power the previous C 63. It’s been replaced with a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder, turbo-petrol engine that makes 476hp and 545Nm and is paired to a 9-speed automatic gearbox. The engine is paired to a rear axle-mounted electric motor that can put out a peak of 204hp and 320Nm. Total maximum output stands at 680hp and a whopping 1,020Nm of torque. Merc uses F1-derived tech for the turbocharger, which incorporates an electric motor that runs off the 400V electrical system, and helps the turbine spool faster.

Power is sent to all four wheels through the 4Matic+ system, which comes with a drift mode. The claimed 0-100kph time for the C 63 S E Performance is 3.4 seconds. The AMG Driver’s Package that's usually available as an option, is standard on the C 63. So top speed is 280kph.

The plug-in hybrid performance sedan gets a 6.1kWh battery pack (weighing 89kg), giving the C 63 an electric-only range of up to 13km. Four-wheel steering is also standard, which allows the rear wheels to turn up to 2.5deg in the opposite direction (up to 100kph), and up to 0.7deg in the same direction at speeds higher than that. The new C 63 gets eight drive modes – Electric, Comfort, Battery Hold, Sport, Sport+, RACE, Slippery and Individual – along three levels for its adaptive damping system – Comfort, Sport, and Sport+.

Mercedes AMG C 63 S E Performance interior, exterior

Compared to the standard C-Class, the AMG-spec model gets a vertically slatted grille with active shutters that open or close depending on the engine’s cooling needs. The restyled, more aggressive front and rear bumper increase the car's length by 83mm, and the wider front wheel arches make the performance version 76mm wider than the standard sedan. Lightweight 20-inch alloy wheels are standard.

Mercedes says AMG exclusive paint options like the Matt Graphite Grey Magno are customisable, and optional ceramic high-performance composite brakes can be specced instead of the standard ventilated and perforated metal ones. Naturally, the company offers a great deal of personalisation options with the C 63 S E Performance.

On the inside, the AMG and the standard model share the same layout, but this gets an all-black theme and an AMG-specific steering wheel. The ventilated sports seats in nappa leather and carbon fibre interior trim, a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment and head-up display, and the 710W, 15-speaker Burmester sound system are standard. AMG Performance seats are an optional extra. Along with the usual list of ADAS features, 7 airbags and a 360-degree camera are standard fit.

Mercedes-AMG says that every buyer of the C 63 S E Performance will get a complementary opportunity to race at the Nürburgring.

Mercedes AMG C 63 S E Performance price, rivals

While the Rs 1.95 crore Mercedes-AMG C 63 S E Performance has no direct rivals in India, other models that vie in this rarefied performance-focused space include the recently launched 550hp BMW M4 CS (Rs 1.89 crore) and the larger 500hp Porsche Panamera GTS (Rs 2.34 crore).
