If it doesn’t count toward your quota, you don’t have time for it. In the world of enterprise sales, that’s as it should be. And since meetings, updating records in your CRM, and other administrative tasks take up almost two-thirds of your time—leaving just 35 percent of your time for actually selling—anything you can do to sharpen your sales game without eating into your already busy schedule is worth its weight in gold.
That’s why we’re such fans of inside sales podcasts. They’re a great way to get expert sales advice from veteran sellers while you travel to and from work. Who says commuting is a waste of time?
However, there are a lot of inside sales podcasts out there that don’t deliver real value and instead repeat the same old platitudes you’ve heard a thousand times. To help you get right to the good stuff, we’ve curated a list of nine killer podcasts that always deliver. It’s not the longest list out there—it’s just the best.
B2B Growth
This show began as a pure strategy-and-tactics play, with guests like sales luminaries Jeff Thull and Anthony Iannarino. Think complex sales, referral strategies, social selling, and more. After nearly 900 episodes, it’s naturally evolved into a more holistic thought leadership program focused on global expansion, organizational growth, market relevance, and more. There’s new content daily, so there’s always new insight to look forward to.

The Sales Evangelist
If your sales team is young, you may want to make this podcast mandatory listening. Hosted by sales coach Donald Kelly, The Sales Evangelist combines smart fundamentals with tactical skills and expert opinions from seasoned veterans. It’s slightly more advanced than a 101, but not so lofty that your SDRs will feel like they’re in over their heads.

Sales Pipeline Radio
Hosted by marketer Matt Heinz, Sales Pipeline Radio covers, well, the whole pipeline, which means you’re as likely to learn how to handle MarTech migrations as how to nurture leads or develop sales enablement strategies. Heinz interviews a guest marketer or sales expert on every episode, which are broadcast live on Thursdays at 11:30 PST/2:30 EST—perfect for a mid-afternoon break from the grind.

Sales Success Stories
On every episode of this B2B-focused podcast, host Scott Ingram talks to top enterprise sellers across the country and tries to pick apart just what it is—reading habits, daily routines, or personal strategies—that makes them so good at what they do. And in case you lost your earbuds, Ingram has also parlayed his podcast into a book of the same name.

Plus, his site features a handy search tool to help you pick only those episodes that cover the topics you’re interested in. Fair warning: Barron hasn’t put out in an episode in over a month and may be inactive, but he’s got a backlog of over 500 quality episodes, which should keep you learning for quite some time.
