Over the long holiday weekend, my wife and I puppy-sat for Henry, a 4-month old golden doodle. And this got me thinking. Puppies and Podcasts have a FEW things in common.When you start a podcast, you probably have the exuberance of a puppy. Henry has a habit of BOUNCING when he walks – he's very excited, and it's very cute. But at some point, you need to learn HOW to walk. And you can learn that by observing other podcasters. Our cousin, Henry's owner, said on walks, he'd just plop down on the sidewalk. But when we walked our 10 year old coonhound Jules, Henry would follow her around, like, well, a puppy dog. The added bonus, 3+ miles of walking per day makes for a very tired, and thus very well behaved, pup.You may have a plan for your podcast, but in the early goings, you may have to change course.The plan was for Henry to sleep in a crate in our bedroom. But his first night with us, this well behaved pup screamed and cried and barked from 11pm to 1am. Now, I'm sure some neighborhood fireworks didn't help, but around 1:15am, we called an audible.Henry would sleep in our bed all week.Sorry to his Mom and Dad if you're listening – I'm sure he learned some bad habits here at Camp Jules. Bottom line, you may think you know what you're podcast is going to be – but if it's not working, it's OK to change – even after you've launched.Then there were the puppy teeth – who knew they were so sharp? Yes, they hurt when he nipped at my ankles – and yes, those first few podcast mistakes may leave a mark. But outside something drastic, or outside the realm of common sense, you aren't going to destroy anything in your first few episodes. No matter how hard Henry went at those deer antlers or stuffies, he didn't cause any real damage. It's OK as a new podcaster to be “teething.”At the end of the day, your new podcast needs a lot of attention – you are still figuring out your new world. But the more time and care you put into it, the better your results. You might need constant reminders about mic technique and avoiding tangents – the podcast equivalent of “don't eat that and don't pee on that.” Lata!

In this longer-than-usual episode, I go through a detailed step-by-step guide on how to start your own podcast from beginning to end.We cover choosing your topic, coming up with episode ideas, naming your show, creating artwork, selecting a hosting platform, releasing your first episodes, promoting on social media, and more.

Do you ever feel overwhelmed by a flood of ideas and struggle to find clarity? In today's episode, Kristin guides listeners through Step 2 of our podcast journey: the brain dump. The brain dump process helps us clear our minds, find clarity, and tap into our creativity, rooted in our mission and identity. Creating excellent content requires clarity, intentionality, and purpose. However, our minds often feel cluttered and overwhelmed, making it challenging to focus. By rooting ourselves in our mission and identity, we can produce meaningful and impactful content. What you'll learn from Kristin: The impact of a a brain dump and how it helps you to organize your thoughts and find direction. How to connect with the Holy Spirit to enhance your creativity. The process of looking for recurring themes or ideas that stand out in your thoughts. Understand that your voice is valuable and needs to be heard. Reflect on your experiences and how they shape your perspective. The brain dump is a powerful exercise for both new and seasoned podcasters. It helps unclog your mind, allowing your creativity to flow freely. No matter what stage of podcasting you're in, this exercise is designed to help you better plan and create content that resonates with your listeners. Don't let your thoughts stop you from podcasting; instead, harness the power of a brain dump. Your voice needs to be heard, and by taking the time to clear your mind and connect with your mission, you can produce content that is both meaningful and impactful. Remember, you have a unique perspective that the world needs to hear. Quotes from Today's Episode: “When you start to brain dump and have that creative flow, you realize that you do have more to offer” “You might hit a wall. Sit again, and ask Holy Spirit to bring those thoughts to mind” “Come back to your brain dump and recognize those patterns and themes that you continue to see over and over” Are you looking for guidance or want to launch a podcast?

Welcome to a crossover episode of a different sort. But first: How are you doing? No, really? I ask because May is Mental Health Awareness Month. So many of us, myself included, struggle to articulate how “off” we feel right now, a cruel joke given that the good folks and orgs behind this month's observance urge us to check in with our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. I'll go first (yikes!): The only way I can describe my current state of mind is fragile. Can you relate? If you're an entrepreneur, an educator, a corporate employee, a HUMAN, I bet you can. You're okay. I acknowledge and honor your struggle. This episode isn't about mental health per se. It's about creating a secure and attentive environment for guests to feel supported, understood, and willing to engage in vulnerable conversations. The high schoolers behind Power Your Story, my student mentee podcast, beautifully illustrate my point. Their cohort-led interview with Peer Support Specialist and Mental Health Advocate Ashley Scott showcases subtle practices anyone can incorporate to become a better listener and, thus, better podcast host. Co-hosts Elvis, Emerie, Jules, and Alejandro facilitate a space where Ashley feels supported to speak more candidly about her mental health. That safety is mutual: Ashley's comfort leads the students to go off-script, to ask more meaningful follow-up questions, and to add personal observations that make for a more engaging conversation. You can talk about podcasting for marketing, sales, audience growth, or business all day, but this genuine exchange is why I love podcasting; this is where your audience will find value. The last few episodes of Podcast Envy have focused on hosting and content strategies guaranteed to make your show a repeat listen. By creating a safe, intimate container where you and your guests can discuss important topics, you're signaling to the audience that they, too, are seen and heard. I appreciate that not everyone's format is conducive to exploring tough conversations. Still, anyone can follow the Power Your Story lead, regardless of your show's POVs, by remaining present and reflecting back to each guest. For Mental Health Awareness, check out all of this month's related Power Your Story episodes: Insomnia & Dreaming of a Better Night's Sleep with Leonardo & Dewayne; The Journey to Self-Empowerment: Mindfulness,Law of Attraction with Hysan & May; Heavy Metal & Mental Health with Justin Bowling by Leslie, Carlos, Essence & ChuYing and produced by Aldo; Advocating for Mental Health & Peer Support with Ashley Scott RECOMMENDED LISTENING PEP106 - Awesome Podcast Host Featuring Karen Yates Power Your Story Refresh Your Podcast (Don't fade out!)

Psst. Want to know the secret to becoming a better podcast host? It's not your equipment. Relationships are everything. Research indicates that while folks may listen to podcasts for entertainment and information, they remain loyal to a specific show because of its host. Karen Yates is definitely that host. She's a producer, host, and the mastermind behind Wild & Sublime, the super-successful, highly binge-able podcast about sex for everyone, no matter their preferences, orientation, or relationship style. Here are a few of my fave hosting tips: Get into the rhythm. Act natural, strategically. Craft different but authentic voice personas. Skip the pre-show cheese stick. Seriously. But wait, there's more, including Karen's number one tip for better hosting, but you'll have to check out the episode to get it!

I've been learning about sales. NOT my natural zone of genius, but I'm necessarily getting better at it, partly thanks to one of our clients, Paul Reilly at The Q and A Sales Podcast. On a recent episode called “What separates top achieving salespeople?” Paul said that 79% of top achievers' sales success is because of the customer relationships they build. His team asked buyers and decision makers: Why would you choose one partner over another? Relationship with a salesperson ranked higher, meaning more important, than price. And part of relationship building is ENTERTAINMENT. You may be thinking, “But Andrea, I'm not selling anything when I'm making a podcast!” Wrong! On the surface, you may have a podcast to help you sell a product or service, join your membership, come to your event. Dig deeper, and you may be selling them on an idea, concept, or a change you want to see in your niche. And ultimately, you are ALWAYS selling them on continuing to spend their valuable time and attention listening to your podcast. So how are YOU going to make your podcast more entertaining as you build that relationship with your listener (i.e. your customer?) I've got 10 ideas for you! You may be thinking, “Do I have to sing? Be funny? Do investigative journalism? Sound design????” NOT NECESSARILY! Play the episode to find out what to do and how to choose your authentic entertainment style. *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

PODCAST ENVY HAS REACHED 100 EPISODES! The all-cap is warranted. Looking back over 100 episodes, I can't help but think about the olden days of my business. When I launched Podcast Envy in 2018, I had a small roster of podcast editing clients and helped a handful of folks launch new shows. Oh, and the “team” was just me and Edwin Ruiz, CI's technical director extraordinaire. My centennial achievement is only half the story. The other half belongs to the Creative Impostor Studios team––a team I'm mad proud to say has gone global: Monica Braine, Associate Editor & Consulting Producer (Albuquerque, NM); Helen King, Associate Editor (Auckland, New Zealand); Alex Riegler, Podcast Manager (Chicago, IL); Edwin R. Ruiz, Technical Director (Chicago, IL); Heidi Stabbert, Associate Editor (Anchorage, AK); Caitlin Sunderland, Social Media & Outreach Coordinator, (Richmond, VA); and Lisa Widder, Show Notes Copywriter (Chicago, IL). To mark 100 shows, I asked each of them to offer up some sage counsel for podcasters, plus a piece of advice for folks wanting to do what they do on the daily.

Are you nervous? Your palms getting sweaty? Are you feeling the media-magnified stress about a recession, and you're considering cutting your spending? Rather than scaling back, you may want to DOUBLE DOWN on your podcast this year. Wait, what? Consider what's on your listeners' minds — inflation, interest rates, food prices, rent prices, gas prices, supply chain shenanigans — and then provide them with the resources that help them through this economic cycle. *** Get the full show notes including links to shows and episodes referenced at: https://www.podcastenvy.com I'd love to hear your thoughts and questions!

Whitney Gossett is a woman after my own heart. A former literary agent who has sold numerous books to Big 5 publishers (including 26 New York Times bestsellers), she saw that traditional publishing was broken. Rather than lamenting that face, she turned around and created an audio company called Content Capital. In other words, if anyone has her finger on the pulse of how publishing is changing, it's her. That's why I paid attention when she told me her firm belief is that authors should launch podcasts—ideally before they even launch their books. Listen in to find out more about how to record episodes about your book in progress to encourage book pre-orders, why the podcast industry isn't as saturated as you may believe and so much more. If you're looking to launch a podcast—or revamp your existing one—I highly recommend checking out Content Capital's services. ARE YOU A NON-FICTION AUTHOR? IF SO, YOU NEED AN ELEVATOR PITCH.

In this podcast episode, Nick Nalbach, a podcasting launch pro and founder of Nine-Five to Freedom, teaches us how to take control of our lives and journey to wealth and freedom by strategically crafting an effective podcast launch—eagerly building relationships and creating a powerful community along the way. "When you realize that you can be in control, then you can make those decisions. If you're in a season of life where you're hustling or if you're in a season of life where you're kind of kicking back because you did hustle for so long and now you're kind of reaping the benefits of that." - Nick Nalbach This is Nick Nalbach's story... Nick Nalbach is originally from Wisconsin and had been working in project management, moving around to different cities until he and his family settled in West Virginia. Wanting to get a leg up in life, he read the book "Millionaire Fast Lane" and was inspired to pursue avenues of wealth that weren't focused on a 9-5 job. He was intrigued by the idea of having control over his life and financial stability. Pat Flynn, the host of "Smart Passive Income" helped him realize that he too could start a business. In 2020 Nick started the "Nine-Five Podcast" to share stories of people who went through the same process of transitioning to entrepreneurship. In this episode, you will learn the following: 1. Discover how to gain control over your life and career 2. Learn about the power of passive income opportunities, and how to make the most of them. 3. Uncover the importance of living intentionally, and how to make the most of different seasons of life.

Make Beautiful Things - Finding Joy & Purpose in Our Work, Relationships & Communities
On today's episode I talk to Tammy Munson, a podcast coach, podcast editor, CEO or Wildfire Creative Company and podcast host, about why you should have a podcast, and how to create an engaging, lively and successful show. We talk about why you have to niche down, and be consistent and add value and then we go way beyond that to talk about how to have a fun, engaging show and some great examples of shows. We then talk about how and when you may be able to monetize your podcast, if community size matters and why you should and shouldn't get into podcasting. This is a great behind the scenes convo with a seasoned podcasting expert who podcasts and helps other podcasters with their shows. Quick Note: I am going to shift to releasing 1 episode a week typically on Wednesdays for the remainder of the season and wrap up season 2 before the holidays.

Learn how to launch and grow your podcast from the best in the industry. If you've been listening to Online Marketing Made Easy for a while, you know that one of the questions I always ask my guests is, “What would you do if you had to start your business all over again? What would you focus on first?” And for me, answering that question is super easy. Without a shadow of a doubt, I would start a podcast from day one. Yes, friend, it's true. Online Marketing Made Easy has brought so much more to my business than I ever thought possible, and it's also been such a great creative outlet for me. Not only does a podcast help you develop a presence for your brand and directly connect with your target audience, but you can also make great money in the process. My team and I just recently had our first 1 million downloads month, and I could not be more proud. It's taken a lot of hard work, changing directions, and trying out new things -- but it's been well worth the effort. So in the spirit of all-things podcast, I thought I'd invite Jenna Kutcher, the host of the Goal Digger podcast, on to the show to share a few words of wisdom. Jenna is the crème de la crème of podcasters and content creators, so I know you'll be just as excited as I was to hear what she has to say. In this interview, you'll hear Jenna and I discuss: How to set realistic production and metrics goals Tips on how to monetize your podcast and when to start When is “too late” to create and launch a podcast The pros and cons of being part of a podcast network Do you have your listening ears on? Good -- because if you've ever considered starting a podcast, you definitely want to listen closely. Here's a glance at this episode... [08:05] The key to a successful podcast is to find a way to produce content sustainably. Have systems in place that allow you to show up and keep running. [10:45] Don't let things that don't matter hold you up. Find out what you are doing and why. A podcast can be a top of funnel, establish you as an expert, or become an interview opportunity. Get clear on your goal. [12:41] Set a goal for your podcast. Could it be a list builder, a way to establish credibility, or a means to pivot your business? Your results will depend on what that goal is. [16:52] Monetize from day one. People will continue to go back to early episodes. You could use it as a list builder or an affiliate play. [20:53] It's not too late to start a podcast. No one will approach it like you will. Listeners listen to multiple shows. [26:14] Subscriptions or paid models are becoming popular. Jenna likes the idea of creating value for free and giving away content. [34:54] Jenna loves that people are inviting her voice into their lives. Podcasts are a reference library to so many different topics. If the host isn't an expert, they can bring an expert in. [38:29] Jenna has a free masterclass on how to podcast.
