And I want to hear not only your success story, but the feedback and success you receive from your listeners. And I’m here to help you every step of the way. I love that something like podcasting can make such a positive impact on the world. Are you?

| 13 Ways To Promote A Podcast 📈 | 04 May 2019 | 00:25:51 | |
There are tons of different ways to promote a podcast. Some are fairly easy and don’t require a lot of effort, while some might take a bit more time. I’ve tried to include a variety of different podcast marketing tactics so that you can pick and choose what makes sense for you. I recommend choosing one or two simple podcast promotion methods (the first 2 are great starting points if you don’t already do them) and then coming back to add methods to your marketing mix. | |||

| How To Create Video Teasers, A Fun Podcast Growth Tip | 10 Jan 2019 | 00:04:57 | |
In case you didn't know, video is one of the best ways to get seen on social media... A couple reasons are that:
But you don't want to share your entire podcast episode on social media - people are in a different mindset. What you want to do is create a teaser that gets people interested enough to check out your show (and hopefully subscribe). If you signed up with Buzzsprout, they have an awesome little tool to do just that! Just click into one of your episodes - and on the right side there will be a button that says 'Create A Video Soundbite'. Then you'll see an easy-to-use screen like this: The other option mentioned is Headliner | |||
| A Simple Podcast Growth Tip | 08 Jan 2019 | 00:04:51 | |
You want to grow your podcast audience and get your listeners to engage with you, right? One of my favorite ways is to include a listener Q&A segment in your show. You could also make it a listener comment segment or a segment where you read reviews. Sounds simple, but this tactic can be powerful. I'll explain:

| How To "Launch" Your Podcast [Day 10] | 06 Jan 2019 | 00:06:26 | |
I put "launch" in quotes because this step is really all about submitting your podcast to iTunes (Apple Podcasts). That means that when Apple accepts it, your show will be live and officially launched, even if no one knows about it. As a bonus, we'll talk about growing your show in a couple days. It's possible you already figured this step out by clicking the iTunes & Directories tab in your Buzzsprout dashboard, but if you haven't yet, it's easy! You will need to create an Apple ID if you don't have one already. And if know anyone else who would benefit from this, could you do me a favor and share it with them? | |||

| Podcast Equipment You'll Need [Day 6] | 14 Dec 2018 | 00:14:14 | |

| Podcast Format & Segments [Day 5] | 13 Dec 2018 | 00:11:25 | |
Today we're going to talk about Show Format. There are many different styles and formats you can choose - and many people will combine formats (i.e. a solo episode one day, an interview episode another day). There isn't a right or wrong way to go here - and many shows evolve and change over time to include other formats or segments.

| Best Pop Filters (Exciting, I Know!) | 20 Mar 2018 | 00:10:46 | |
Pop filters do what their name suggests – they reduce or eliminate popping sounds. In natural speech, certain letters tend to cause your mouth and breath to produce fast-moving air. These plosives typically come from the letters P, T, and K. Try saying the word “podcast” or “pop filter” while holding your hand in front of your mouth – you’ll feel the air. This air can easily overwhelm a microphone, causing distortion and clipping. We definitely don’t want that. So let’s take a look at some of the best pop filters to use when recording vocals… My Favorite Pop Filter: | |||

Listen to some of the best options for each type. | |||
