Journey to Podcast

A lot of what Im doing now, I'm doing because I decided a little while back to PUSH MYSELF!

Going beyond your boundaries for something new, or something you've been doing for a while, is key to really finding new levels of living.

So here are 5 reasons why you should push yourself.. NOW!

In this episode we'll explore how to work on content creation and delivery for your social media strategy.

When you post, you can use:

1. Text only

2. Links

3. Graphics.

All these used together can create a dynamic timeline for your audience to really engage with you on social media.

Remember: Social media is for being social!

And with content delivery, I'll talk about my recommendations for automating your social posting, so that you aren't tied down to your screen all the time just trying to post at the right time of day :)

If you're going to market your podcast well, you can't avoid being "social". This episode is about all the interactions that will need to take place for your marketing to truly work especially in the early stages through:

1. Friends and Family

2. Facebook, and the 3 ways you can market there!

3. Your website, because it is your domain and it isn't subject to any algorithm changes.

Social media is for being social, so don't just stick to the formula of posting links alone. Get creative with memes, articles outside of your own, and even relevant jokes!!

Don't just think about it...

Do it!

Well done on getting your podcast up and running! Now we can get into the nitty gritty work of making sure it can be marketed well. In this episode I cover:

- Creating Content (that matters) Consistently

- A functioning RSS feed to make your podcast available for subscription

- Putting your podcast on the main platforms

- Making subscription easy for your listeners.

These are just the very foundational and technical things you want to get out of the way before we go nuts with things like Facebook or Twitter.

Let me know what you think!

Don't just think about it

The sound of your voice can be something you either love or hate. And that makes podcasting difficult if you don't love it (which is most people).

Today I'll tackle that all-important question of "what kind of voice is best for podcasting?"

Is a deeper voice better? Are high pitched voices too annoying?

As an online brand, online courses will become something you either consume, produce, or both!

I want to break down the kind of online training you can find and how it works. As well as give my personal recommendation of what you should look for.

The 5 types of online education/courses you find are:

1. Basic online course

2. One-on-one coaching

3. On-to-many coaching

4. Summits

5. Webinars

6. Communities

Each has its own advantages, so you must pick what works for you and where you are with your brand.

My recommendations for podcasting without breaking the bank!

Is it possible to podcast for free?

1. Equipment

3. Media Hosting

4. Website & Email

5 Online Education

I give you how you can go about all of this for free...

BUT, even thought it's possible to podcast for free, should you podcast for free?

Is it a good idea?

Let's explore all that in today's episode.

After seeing the incredible "Captian America: Civil War" movie, I share my thoughts on the movie as a whole.

I also give some thoughts on how our actions can impact how people respond to us, using the movie as the basis of my thoughts, I split those responses into a negative, or a positive side.

Bias ahead on how I titled those sides!

Are you Team Cap, or Team Iron-Man?

Using these methods, you can gain real relevance and influence with your target audience!
