When you think of tequila, you think of The Rock.

When you think of personal development, you think of Tony Robbins.

When you think of social media and motivation, you think of Gary V.

The extent to which people associate you with a specific topic shows your level of authority within that space. 

You can be an expert and not have authority in that space. 

And you can have authority without expertise. 

The level of recognition you have for that topic/subject = authority.

Yes, it’s not fair. But don’t hate the player or the game, just learn to play. 

If you have both expertise and authority, you're winning. 

But what does any of this have to do with growing your podcast? 

EVERYTHING.

There are 11 million daily podcast listeners in America alone. 

Over 50% of them go to Apple and Spotify to discover new podcasts to listen to.

They go to Apple or Spotify and type in what they’re looking for. 

Your ability to rank for the main topics and have your podcast become highly relevant for a topic shows the authority you have. 

And dictates how fast you can grow and how quickly you become a recognized player in the game.

But how do you build high relevancy on Apple and Spotify?

How can you make it so that when anyone searches for the type of content you create, they instantly associate you with that topic?
