| Episode 71: Why Going Viral Is Overrated (& What Actually Grows Your Business on Social Media + Beyond) with Kristina Bartold | 12 May 2026 | 00:40:48 | |
What if going viral would actually hurt your business more than help it? My guest Kristina Bartold has worked with over 250 businesses through her social media agency, The Social Snippet. She has seen people with 75,000 followers who cannot sell a $15 product. She has also seen entrepreneurs with small, engaged communities sell out events with a single email. The difference is not audience size. It is community. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, we dive into why chasing virality is a trap for most entrepreneurs, what actually drives revenue on social media, how she built a seven-figure agency in three years through relationships instead of followers, and the exact strategies that are working right now for promoting your podcast on Instagram, Threads, LinkedIn, and beyond. We also get into one of the most honest membership pivot stories I have heard. She had a $37 membership with 35 members that would not grow no matter what she tried. She was ready to shut it down. Instead, she pivoted the entire concept, relaunched at double the price, and now has over 100 members and growing. Her lesson: you cannot outwork a bad offer. If you have ever caught yourself wishing for a viral moment to change your business, this conversation is going to shift your perspective entirely. 🔑Here's a glance to the episode:

What if the episode you recorded this week could be doing 15 different jobs for your business right now? Because it can. And most podcasters are only letting it do one. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, we dive into all the ways you can transform a single podcast episode into a full content ecosystem. Not just "repurpose it into social posts."

What if you could grow your podcast without showing up on Instagram every single day? My guest Andi Smiley did exactly that, using Pinterest as her primary marketing channel, posting just one pin a day, and growing her podcast by 74% in one year while adding over 200 email subscribers. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, we dive into everything podcasters need to know about Pinterest, from how long it actually takes to see results, to where your pins should link, to how Pinterest SEO differs from Google SEO, to whether video pins or static pins perform better for podcast content. I've been experimenting with Pinterest myself and had a million questions. This conversation answered all of them, and I think it'll answer yours too. Whether you're Pinterest-curious or you've been dabbling and want to see better results, this episode gives you a clear, actionable strategy you can start this week. 🔑Here's a glance to the episode:

What if AI could actually sound like you and save you hours every single week? In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I'm walking you through the 5 podcast marketing tasks I've completely handed off to AI, and exactly how I've set it up so the output sounds like me, not a robot.

| Episode 67: How to Repurpose Instagram Lives Into a Podcast (Apple + Spotify) with Gilly Garrett | 14 Apr 2026 | 00:32:17 | |
Can Instagram Lives actually become podcast episodes? My guest Gilly did exactly that — and it changed everything for her business. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I'm sitting down with Gilly, founder of Gilly's Organics and host of Everyday Rockstars, to talk about how she went from recording short 14-minute Instagram Live interviews for a local New Jersey magazine to launching a full podcast on Apple Podcasts and Spotify — and how that shift opened doors for her skincare business, her speaking career, and a brand new coaching community. This is one of the most creative podcast origin stories I've come across, and if you're a business owner who's been creating content on social media and wondering whether podcasting is worth it, this conversation will give you the push (and the practical strategy) you need. We also go deep on how to get better at podcast interviews, why you don't need massive download numbers to see real ROI, and how podcasting can fuel offers you haven't even launched yet. 🔑 What you'll learn in this episode:

| Episode 66: How to Get Your Podcast Recommended by AI (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, & Google) | 07 Apr 2026 | 00:28:15 | |
What if your podcast wasn’t just being discovered on Apple and Spotify… but recommended by AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and voice search? Because that’s exactly what’s happening right now. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking down one of the biggest shifts in podcast discovery — and one most podcasters aren’t talking about yet: AI is becoming a major search engine for podcasts. People are no longer just browsing charts. They’re asking questions like:
And AI is giving them answers. Which means your podcast now has the opportunity to be discovered far beyond podcast apps — if your content is clear, searchable, and easy for AI to understand. In this episode, I walk you through 10 practical strategies to help your podcast get indexed, categorized, and recommended by AI tools — without overcomplicating your workflow. Because the goal isn’t to do more. It’s to be more intentional with what you’re already creating. In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

| Episode 65: Grow Your Podcast & Email List Without Being Tied To Social Media with Tracy Beavers | 31 Mar 2026 | 00:45:03 | |
What if you didn’t have to rely on social media to grow your podcast, your email list, or your business? Because I know how many of you feel this right now… You’re showing up on Instagram. You’re trying to keep up with the algorithm. You’re posting consistently. And it still feels like a lot of effort for very little return. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m sitting down with Tracy Beavers to talk about a different way to grow — one that feels more sustainable, more aligned, and honestly… a lot more doable. We’re breaking down how podcasting and email marketing work together to create real momentum in your business — without needing to constantly show up on social media or chase visibility. Because here’s the truth: Your email list is one of the most valuable assets in your business. And your podcast is one of the best ways to grow it. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by marketing, unsure where to focus your energy, or like your efforts aren’t translating into real growth… this conversation will help you simplify everything.

| Episode 64: Podcast to Email List: Why Listeners Aren’t Converting into Subscribers (And the Exact Shifts That Work) | 24 Mar 2026 | 00:20:19 | |
Your podcast listeners love you. They DM you about episodes. They reference things you said months ago. They binge your show and tell you how helpful it is. But your email list feels completely dead. Sound familiar? In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking down a pattern I’m seeing with so many podcasters right now: loyal listeners… but quiet email lists. And the truth is — your podcast probably isn’t the problem. Podcasting builds passive trust. People listen while driving, walking, cooking, or folding laundry. They feel connected to you and your voice. But email requires a different kind of commitment. Someone has to stop what they’re doing, click a link, enter their email, confirm it, and then continue opening your messages. That shift from listener → subscriber is bigger than most podcasters realize. The good news? Once you understand what’s actually happening, it’s very fixable. In this episode, I’m sharing the exact shifts that help turn podcast listeners into engaged email subscribers and buyers — without needing a massive audience. Because your podcast and your email list shouldn’t be separate ecosystems. They should work together. In This Episode

If your podcast audience is loyal but your email list feels quiet, you don’t need to start over. You simply need better bridges between your podcast and your email list. When your email list becomes the natural next step after an episode, engagement starts to feel effortless — and your podcast becomes a true growth engine for your business.

| Episode 63: Why Most Marketing Isn’t Working Anymore (and What to Focus on Instead) with Alice Zarka | 17 Mar 2026 | 00:39:15 | |
If your launches aren’t converting the way you hoped, the issue might not be your strategy. It might be your transformation messaging. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m joined by marketing strategist Alice Zarka to talk about what’s really happening in the online marketing industry right now and why so many launches, digital courses, and coaching offers struggle to stand out in a crowded market. Alice has worked behind the scenes with some of the biggest creators in the online education space, helping scale digital courses, masterminds, and coaching programs to seven figures and beyond. In this conversation, she shares what she’s seeing across the industry right now including shifts in launch strategy, changes in lead generation, and the biggest messaging mistakes entrepreneurs and course creators are making when selling their offers. One of the most powerful insights from this conversation is simple but often overlooked. Most entrepreneurs are selling features, bonuses, and deliverables. But what actually converts is the transformation. We talk about why differentiation matters more than ever in today’s digital marketing landscape, how to create stronger product-market fit before scaling, and why many online launches underperform even when the strategy seems solid on paper. We also dive into how podcasts can support launch strategy and audience growth. From building trust with listeners to generating qualified leads and expanding your reach through collaborations, podcasting can play a powerful role in a modern marketing ecosystem. If you’re a podcaster, coach, course creator, or online entrepreneur trying to grow your audience, improve your launch strategy, and create offers that actually convert, this episode will help you rethink how you approach marketing.

| Episode 62: Organic Discoverability As A Podcaster + Sustainable Production: Sneak Peek from the Podcast Glow Up Party | 10 Mar 2026 | 00:44:56 | |
Your podcast shouldn’t feel like a weekly scramble. But for many podcasters, it does. If you’ve ever recorded an episode the same day it was supposed to go live, struggled to stay consistent with your show, or felt like your podcast is always sitting on the back burner — you’re not alone. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m sharing a replay from Day 2 of the Podcast Glow-Up Party, where we talked about something that quietly causes more podcasters to quit than almost anything else: a chaotic production workflow. Because podcast growth isn’t just about marketing, SEO, or finding the right topics. It’s also about building a production flow that supports your life and your business instead of creating stress and burnout. When podcast production becomes reactive and last-minute, the pressure builds quickly. What starts as a creative project can start to feel like another obligation on your to-do list. This episode is about changing that. Inside this replay, I walk through how to simplify your podcast planning, organize your episode pipeline, and create a system that keeps your show running smoothly — even when life gets busy. Because the truth is: when you treat your podcast like a product, everything changes. You move from scrambling to publish episodes… to running a repeatable system that supports long-term growth. In this episode, you’ll learn:

We also talk about the current state of the podcast industry — including why podcasting continues to grow rapidly even as more creators experiment with video platforms. Here’s a statistic that surprises a lot of people: Even though millions of blogs and YouTube channels are updated every month, only about 400,000 podcasts have released an episode in the last 90 days. That means podcasting is still one of the least saturated long-form content platforms available for entrepreneurs and creators. If you’ve been wondering whether podcasting is still worth it in 2026, this episode will give you a very clear answer. This episode is for:

| Episode 61: YouTube for Podcasters: Why Just Uploading Your Podcast Isn’t a Growth Strategy with Auret Esselen | 03 Mar 2026 | 00:49:55 | |
What if YouTube didn’t mean more work… but smarter distribution of what you’re already creating? In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m sitting down with YouTube strategist Auret Esselen to talk about how podcasters can actually use YouTube as a growth asset — not just a place to “dump” video versions of their episodes and hope for the best. Because here’s the truth: Uploading your podcast to YouTube without a strategy rarely works. But with the right titles, packaging, and intent, YouTube can become one of the strongest discovery platforms for your podcast, email list, and offers. This conversation is for podcasters who want visibility, authority, and growth — without turning into full-time video creators. We’re breaking down what actually matters on YouTube for podcasters, how to think about SEO and search-based growth, and how to turn your channel into an intentional extension of your podcast-first marketing strategy.

You don’t need more podcast ideas. You need better signals. If you’ve ever sat down to plan episodes and thought, “I know I have good ideas… why isn’t this translating into growth?” — this episode is for you. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking down how to choose podcast episode topics your audience is already searching for, asking about, and ready to engage with. Because the truth is, most podcasters don’t stall out because of consistency or effort — they stall because their topics aren’t audience-led. This episode is about shifting from guessing to listening. Podcast platforms are search engines now. AI is influencing discovery. And the shows that grow in 2026 and beyond are the ones that reflect their audience’s real language, real questions, and real pain points — not just what sounds good on a content calendar. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been podcasting for years, this episode will help you create content that performs better in search, resonates more deeply, and actually supports your business.

If you’ve been podcasting for more than a few months, chances are you’re sitting on a back catalog of episodes that aren’t doing much for you anymore. And that’s not because the content isn’t good. In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking one of the biggest podcasting myths: that once an episode is published, its job is done. The truth? Your old podcast episodes can be some of the most powerful assets in your business — especially when it comes to podcast SEO, organic discoverability, email list growth, and long-term audience building. I’m walking you through 9 smart, practical ways to repurpose old podcast episodes so they keep working for you long after you hit publish — without recording more content or burning yourself out. This isn’t about reposting clips just to stay visible. It’s about being intentional with your back catalog and turning past episodes into real growth drivers. In this episode, we cover:

In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m joined by Cait Howard and Amanda Benavides, the women behind Podcasting Moms Club and the Mom Friends Media Collective. Together, we’re unpacking what’s changing in podcasting, what’s finally working for women creators, and why community-driven growth is becoming the most powerful strategy moving forward. This conversation is for women building podcasts in real life — between school drop-offs, nap schedules, client work, and everything else. We talk honestly about growing a podcast without hustle culture, why relationships matter more than algorithms, and how mom podcasters are shaping the future of the podcast industry. We also dive into how aligned collaborations lead to stronger visibility, better monetization, and more meaningful opportunities — without cold pitching or chasing downloads.

In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking down a concept that quietly changes everything about your messaging, content, and conversions: customer buckets. Most entrepreneurs are taught to define a single ideal customer avatar. And while that can be helpful early on, it often becomes the reason your podcast content starts to feel muddy, repetitive, or disconnected from actual results. Because the truth is: your audience isn’t all starting from the same place—even if they want the same outcome. When you try to speak to everyone the same way, your content gets vague… and your calls-to-action stop working. In this episode, I walk you through how to identify the different stages your listeners are in, how to tailor your podcast content to meet them where they are, and how to guide them forward—without creating more content or more offers.

In this episode of Podcast Growth Tools, I’m breaking down five common (and often overlooked) ways podcasters unintentionally sabotage their own growth, even when they’re publishing consistently and creating genuinely good content. After nearly a decade working in podcast growth and marketing, I’ve seen the same issues come up again and again. And here’s the truth most podcasters don’t want to hear: growth usually isn’t blocked by effort—it’s blocked by strategy. As we head into 2026, podcasting looks very different than it did even a year ago. Podcast platforms function like search engines. SEO matters. AI is shaping discovery. And podcasters who rely only on social media or word-of-mouth are hitting growth plateaus fast.
