March 18, 2008 - PRLog -- In each of its 40 episodes, small business podcast Startup BizCast (http://www.startupbizcast.com) has given valuable advice to entrepreneurs and owners of small businesses.  National Small Business Week is April 21-25 in the United States, and as part of that celebration, Startup BizCast will not only be giving advice, but will also be giving away valuable prizes designed to help entrepreneurs.

“I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to host this podcast every week, and I learn a great deal from my guests,” said Startup BizCast Host Steve Mullen, who is also the owner of EndGame Public Relations.  “National Small Business Week is an important celebration of the backbone of our economy, and I organized the Startup BizCast Small Business Week Contest as a way to help small business owners, entrepreneurs, and freelance ‘independents’.”

The contest begins March 19, 2008 and ends on April 12, 2008, when a random drawing will select the winners.  There are three prize levels (one grand prize and two runners-up), each with prizes designed to help the winner grow his or her business.
