In fact, it's probably the complete opposite. But that doesn't mean it's not worth it. It just means you need to understand some things before you get stared.

The first thing to note is that results with podcasts take time, and that a lot of popular podcasts have been going for a while. It's important to find a regular recording schedule and stick to it. The second thing is that the only people who matter when you're growing a show are you and your listeners. There is no need to worry about what other people think. The third thing is that a good room is just as important as a good microphone. And the fourth thing is that you can make up for having a bad mic by being in a really good environment.

He launched the 40th podcast EVER, and I love hum because he is outspoken, forward-thinking, and unafraid to give you an unpopular opinion about how to have a successful show.

He was kind enough to come on the ‘Marketing Your Podcast’ show and talk about:

  • His 20 year history in podcasting and his experience hosting a syndicated internet radio show.
  • How he launched his first podcast back in 2004 and grew a podcast network to around 700 shows
  • And how he was able to use his podcast to launch his business Simpler Media.

We also discuss how new podcast tech is making it easier to create podcasts -- and also how one of our favorite tools, Descript, has forever changed the way podcasts are edited.

Plus we get into some ways that newer shows can still succeed in today’s podcast industry.

It’s a great conversation that will be valuable to podcasters of all experiences.

You can hear Evo daily on his show Podcast Pontifications and also follow him on Twitter.

Then you're going to want to get your episodes transcribed.

I used to think transcribing your podcast was a waste of money-- especially because it was so costly to get it done with any amount of accuracy.

But there's a ton of inexpensive (and accurate) tools that seem to be popping up all over the place.

I've recently started using Otter.ai and also just Descript because it incorporates audio editing as well.

It's made repurposing content and writing show notes WAY EASIER.

But I think I'm going to be transcribing every show from now on.

Just having more listeners or subscribers doesn’t actually equate to anything. Those are vanity metrics that don’t really give you a real idea of the sustainability of the show. Podcasts can often break even or even make a profit from utilizing their platform correctly. My best advice is to make the show your marketing for some other product. Your show is not the product, it’s the marketing for something else. 


This doesn’t mean you have to do QVC, this means that you need to find ways to direct your audience respectfully to things that can monetize your show. This can be a quick ad for some show merchandise at the beginning. Or you can get them onto a text or email list and send them marketing follow ups after that. The idea is to utilize the attention that you have with your audience after they’ve spent a larger amount of time with you.

Here are next things you need to do grow a successful podcast:

Listener Outreach -

Unless your show is already surging and experiencing the growth you’d like, you’re going to have to kickstart it. The best way to do that is to roll up your sleeve and (virtually) connect with potential listeners. You can find new listeners on the social media platforms we mentioned. Look for similar shows, influencers, or pages that create content and cater to your audience. Then reach and interact with those people. Like and comment on their posts, show up on their notifications and get them to check out your profile. If you’ve done all the right things, they'll find their way to your show.

Listener Database -

Cultivating a base of subscribers on your podcast is great, but those can be taken away at any moment. It can happen from an error or someone just deciding they don’t like your show. You don’t want to be at the mercy of those platforms to be able to reach your listeners. So it’s important to start generating your own database of listeners for your show. Then you can communicate with them about new shows or important updates. The most common way to be able to communicate with them is through email but text is very effective.

So to keep it simple -- here's 10 things you need to focus on if you want to have a successful, sustainable show 👇

Here are the ones we cover today:

Podcast Platforms

Make sure your podcast is listed on as many platforms as possible. Get on Apple and Spotify - those are obvious. But also make sure you're on all the smaller platforms like Anchor, Podbean, and Stitcher. These platforms continue to grow as more people get introduced to podcasts.

Podcast Thumbnail/Logo -

Potential listeners judge your show based on two things: your title and your cover. Make sure those two things convey what your show is about. Use that real estate wisely and make sure people understand what your show is about.

Podcast Description -

Your podcast's description is vital for people to find and understand what your show is about. It also helps your podcast show up in the correct searches. Make sure your description is simple, easy to read, and tells listeners what to expect. You can also share what they can expect to gain, learn, or experience from the show. Include important keywords in your description that people will also be searching for. This will help you rank and show up in those search results as well.

Podcast Banner -

An often overlooked component of your marketing is your banner. You’ll want to make sure that your logo and thumbnail can be repurposed to fill a banner. You'll use this banner in places such as you social media channels and also your website. Having this banner ready helps to bring your podcast’s brand to life by extending it more than a just a thumbnail. Make sure to use the same colors, fonts, and themes so that the branding is consistent across all of your assets.

Podcast Website -

Having your own website is vital to sustaining your show. It gives your more control and flexibility to do different things to help grow your show. A website can give you more insight and analytics into your listeners. It also gives you the opportunity to offer different monetization channels. You can use your hosting platform’s website, but I also recommend having some domain of your own. Having both will help your search rankings.

YouTube -

It's important for your podcast to also be on YouTube. Many people listen to podcasts on YouTube and  it's another great place to grow your audience.  You can create original just for YouTube. Or you can repurpose your podcast's content.  Another benefit is YouTube is likely to show up in search results .

Instagram -

The other platform you can build an audience on is Instagram. This is the easiest place to cultivate a community. You can create a page for your show and interact directly with your listeners. This means you can message your listeners directly from your podcast’s page. You can't do that on platforms like Facebook or YouTube. Instagram also gives you exposure outside of your current followers. There's even the (although small) possibility of going viral.

LinkedIn/Tik Tok -

Depending on your show, you can also also grow your audience through LinkedIn or Tik Tok. If your show's listeners are older professionals, you might consider LinkedIn. On LinkedIn, your content can reach new people without having to spend any money on ads. They also have a highly targeted ad platform that can be incredibly useful for certain shows. Tik Tok offers similar abilities to reach new audiences - albeit to a different

Too many podcasts see themselves as an audio-only show that comes out on Apple and Spotify. But the biggest shows don’t limit themselves to audio. They also find a way to reach and engage their listeners on other popular platforms. You can leverage these platforms to build your audience while creating raving fans.

Podcasts are great because you can upload them one time and distribute it to a variety of different sites like iTunes and Spotify. But podcasts can be one-directional making it challenging to connect with your listeners. That’s why platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and (even newer platforms like) Tik Tok are important for the growth and monetization of a show.

But if your listeners are younger, then maybe Instagram or Tik Tok will be a better place to focus your time
