In this episode, Veronica covers four important factors that determine podcast success. 

Like any other project, we want to know if the time, effort, and money we'll invest in our podcast will pay off eventually. The payoff you will seek is connected to your goals. Is your goal to serve your community? is your goal to generate more sales for your business? Is your goal to get more clients? is your goal to network and grow your influence? 

This episode will give you clarity about your goals and encouragement to start your podcast NOW. 

You will learn: 

• The importance of defining success early on 
• Why having a clear idea of your topic and audience will help you achieve your goals faster
• Quality content is what will set you apart ( don't hold back) 
• The one factor that will put you ahead of the game

If you're one of those who haven't started your podcast because you find the recording and editing audio intimidating... I'm there with you.  I get it! There are so many things you have to figure out. What's the right equipment for your budget that will help you achieve good quality audio? What's an audio interface? Do I need an audio interface? What software should I use to record and edit my podcast?

This is why in this episode, me, Veronica, sat down with Studio Steve and asked him all the technical questions you may have. Don't worry! I kept his audio nerd in check and asked him to use simple examples and easy explanations.

My goal is to help you understand audio production, get some gear recommendations, and go over some best with an audio professional.

Because we don't podcast in a Vacuum and creating content (episodes) our listeners enjoy is the faster way to grow, we dug deep inside public forums and articles to find what podcast listeners dislike the most about podcasts.

Disclaimer: we are on your side and we're only reading the comments verbatim. We see you. We know it's difficult to please everybody. Take these opinions with a grain of salt, and always looking to see ways in which you can improve your show.

We all struggle with converting our social media followers into listeners for our show.  

With only so many hours in the day, and with wearing SO MANY HATS as podcasters, let's take some time to evaluate how we are spending our time podcasting.  

Studio Steve flies solo on this one, un-showered, non-shaven, and maybe even a bit off the rails.  But thankfully more than manages to provide a ton of great insight and inspiration for you. 

Let us know what you think of the episode podksi.
