#57 - How to Launch Your Podcast and Why


Listen Later

Have you ever thought about starting your own podcast?

I've been having a love affair with podcasts ever since I launched mine back in 2012.

As you may well know I LOVE podcasting and I am a huge fan of listening to podcasts too.

Whenever I listen to other podcasts, it inspires me with ideas of how I do and don't want to do mine.

The art of podcasting has taught me so much and as a medium it's a fantastic business tool too.

Not other medium allows you to speak directly into the ears of one person at a time and get their undivided attention.

Even if you're out running while listening, it's still that one person's voice (or two if it's an interview of joint podcast) speaking directly to you, into your ears.

With that in mind I wanted to bring on a guest to the Untapped Podcast who got into podcasting in the last few years, and has started not one podcast, but two!

Sarah Mikutel is a globetrotting podcast consultant and founder of the online course Podcast Launch Academy.

Her podcasts Podcasting Step by Step and the Postcard Academy, have been named best podcast about podcasting and best travel podcast, respectively!

Born and raised in the U.S., Sarah’s spent nearly a decade living the expat life in Europe and believes that true independence means the freedom to choose where, when, and how you spend your time and attention.
