Podcast Bytes

As of right now there are over 2 million podcasts on Apple and of those, only 36% have made 10 or more episodes. This means over 60% haven’t cracked the 10 episode marker. So, what makes it so hard to keep a podcast consistently producing episodes? In this episode, I will be sharing the 3 major obstacles that may prevent you from creating a successful podcast. Once you start your podcast, a whole new world of obstacles opens up. Luckily, there have been many podcasts created - successful and not-so-successful - that you can learn from. If you are considering starting a podcast, or you are already in the game, apply this information to your own situation, and find a way to efficiently handle every new challenge as it comes.

Podcasting is becoming increasingly popular but does that mean you should start one? The answer is maybe. Whether or not someone should start a podcast has a lot to do with who they are, how they run their business and their personal goals. So, in this episode, I will be talking about the kinds of people (and the kinds of goals they may have) that benefit from having a podcast.  Podcasts - when produced well - conjure up a lot of interest and can increase leads for your business. They offer hosts a chance to connect with their audiences, build meaningful connections, make money selling products or services and promote their brands. Regardless of your profession, podcasting might be the right avenue for you - listen in to find out.

Welcome to the inaugural episode of our revamped show: Podcast Bytes.  This podcast was started back in 2018 to help demystify the art of starting a podcast. Since then, although the podcast space has definitely gotten busier, it isn’t any less confusing. This show is for the entrepreneurs, marketers, and experts who want a podcast but don’t know where or how to start. If you’re having a hard time understanding all of the conflicting opinions, have taken a how-to podcast course (or tried to finish a course) that left you confused, or just want someone to give you some honest advice, you’re in the right place. My approach is straightforward, answering one question per episode, and my purpose is to make all of the complex stuff not that way.
