As podcasters we kind of have to be obsessed with what’s next.

It’s way too easy to get stuck in the churn of what’s happening right now, and we have to focus on the next big guest, your next recording date, that next launch and the product you’ll have next year. That’s part of being a podcaster and business owner and being a high achiever. You always have to be looking around corners and figuring out what’s next before your competition does.

It can be really hard to get out of this mindset, because it’s so critical to the success of most parts of our lives, but for most podcasters I know, that’s distracting you from the treasure trove of what you’ve already created.

In this episode we’re talking about why your back catalog matters, organizing your archive, repurposing, and how to effectively market your past episodes for the future growth of your podcast.

Podcast analytics are like the wild west: there is no standard of law and order. 

As you know, it doesn’t take long to be completely confused by your podcast host analytics and going on Spotify for Creator and stressing out of Apple Podcasts Connect - I know because I’m right there with you. 

There’s a bunch of numbers and stats and listeners and downloads and what does it all mean? What does it mean for you? What does it mean for you listener? What does it mean for someone that might want to give you money to advertise on your podcast?

You start a podcast, it’s fun for about 3 weeks and then - life starts happening... recordings are getting more inconvenient, you don't know what to talk about, your guests aren’t responding, everything is expensive and you have ten downloads on your episodes.

I know I say this in every episode, but podcasting is hard. It’s time consuming, it’s expensive, it’s frustrating, it’s loney, and sometimes it’s hard to know when it’s time to quit. In this episode we’ll talk about that inevitable crossroads that every podcaster will eventually find themselves in and how to know when and if it’s time to quit your podcast.

✨ChatGPT✨ it’s magical, it’s mystical and it really is amazing, mostly because it does all the stuff we don’t want to do. It might also be ruining your podcast.

This episode is so contradictory to most of what I teach you about incorporating AI into your podcast workflow, but I’m seeing way too many podcasters destroying their podcasts with ChatGPT and before it goes on any further let’s have a candid conversation about what you should actually be using automation and large language models to do in you podcast and what’s total garbage slop that’s going to drive away your audience and future listeners.

In this episode: How ChatGPT is driving away your listener before they can even click play, signs AI might be tanking your podcast and what you should be using automations to do in your podcast.

When can you monetize your podcast? That’s one of the most asked questions I get as a podcast producer and strategist and the simple answer is: today.

Yeah, it’s true. You can monetize your podcast today. You could hypothetically speaking, start making money on your podcast today by becoming an affiliate partner.

Now, obviously it’s much more complicated than recording an ad and watching the money roll in, but in this episode I’m going to walk you through how to become an affiliate marketer with your podcast, how to find the best companies to work with, how much you can expect to make and how to strategize to leverage your affiliate partnerships to get actual partners for your podcast.

Do you want to know the biggest lie in podcasting?

I’ve been thinking about this episode for many years, and it’s something I try to share with every podcaster I work with and meet. The biggest lie in podcasting is that it’s easy, but way too many of us make it too hard.

In this episode I’m going to expose the lies you’ve likely been told about podcasting and how you can reclaim the truth for yourself. We’ll talk about everything from podcasting equipment and production to monetization to why your podcast marketing strategy isn’t working.
