Have you considered starting a podcast or Anchor.fm station? I personally love listening to podcasts. They have been so valuable to growing my business, teaching me new skills, and connecting with other business owners (I share my favorite podcasts here). Most laptops can record voice, but they also pick up typing noise and the quality is not very good. I record Youtube screenshot tutorials for Pinterest marketing and scheduling, but I also recently joined Anchor.fm to offer Pinterest tips. I did some research and found a few USB microphones that plug and play. Here are the top 5 including the two that I have personally used with great results!

 

1. Blue Yeti USB Microphone

   

   This is a bit on the higher price side, but the quality and reviews suggest this is an excellent microphone. The Yeti is often used by some of my favorite podcasters.

2. Blue Snowball iCE Condenser Microphone

   

   I ordered this one initially to use with my tutorials.  The quality is absolutely amazing! I ended up returning it because I felt like it was a little top-heavy and, because it was a bit pricey, I was concerned my kids would accidentally knock it over and break it.  I am sure it would be a great choice if you have a office set up far away from little hands.

3. Fifine Plug &Play Home Studio USB Condenser Microphone

   

   Another popular and highly reviewed item. This microphone would be a great option for a starter or back-up microphone.

4. Fifine Metal Condenser Recording Microphone For Laptop 

   

   This is ultimately the one I ended up using and I am super happy with it! It packs up small, is light, and inexpensive for an entry level microphone. I may upgrade to one of the other ones on the list in the future, but for now, it works for my recording purposes.

5. Samson Go Mic Portable USB Condenser Microphone

   

   This portable microphone is such a fabulous idea! I could totally see myself using this on the go or recording the thoughts swirling in my head. Some of my best ideas always seem to happen when I am driving around in the car.
