So... You Started a Podcast. Now What?!? with Podcast Strategist Amanda Pearch of AmandaPearch.com. One of the biggest misconceptions I encounter is the belief that once an episode is published to Apple Podcasts or Spotify, listeners will naturally find the show. NEWS FLASH- it doesn’t work that way. Launching a #podcast is a lot like launching a website. Simply because it exists doesn’t mean people will discover it... audiences are built through intentional strategy, valuable content, consistent messaging and #smart marketing- NOT because a platform automatically delivers traffic. Any readers/ listeners interested in a LIVE Q&A "Chat with AP"? Curious or new podcasters could "Ask Amanda Anything" about best practices, a decade of publishing, #pod science, pro tips and a dance party? If that sounds interesting comment #AMA. I will coordinate if there is enough interest. Connect with Amanda at AmandaPearch.com
