Podcasts about launch a podcast

The Big Questions That Keep New Podcasters Stuck: Every week, I have similar conversations with prospective podcast clients. They come to me with a massive list of “to-dos” and a whole lot of overwhelm from the pressure to do way more than necessary to launch.And every single week, my answer is the same: You're overcomplicating it.Podcasting shouldn't add twenty hours of work to your week. It should be a high-leverage tool that turns listeners into leads. In this episode, we're stripping away the “shoulds”—like the pressure to do video—and answering the most common questions I get from people who are ready to launch but tired of the noise.Here's what's inside:The Case for Audio-First: Why you can give yourself full permission to skip the video setup and why audio actually builds deeper trust.The “What Should I Talk About?” Solution: Instead of brainstorming, look at your client wins and common hurdles. You can pull content directly from the conversations you're already having.The Editing Debate: Do you really need to edit? I'll tell you why I say “yes” every single time, even for live workshops, and the tool I've used for years to make it fast.The Strategy Before the Gear: You don't need a high-end microphone but you do need a purpose. Before you spend a dime, I'm giving you the one question you have to answer FIRST.Resources Mentioned:The Podcast Health Checkup: Before you launch or relaunch, set your foundation for a successful, monetized podcast. Book a Strategy Consult: Unsure if podcasting is the right next step for your specific business?

If you had to launch a podcast in 2026 with zero audience, zero momentum, and no shortcuts, you wouldn't start with fancy gear or “clever” branding. You'd start with being found.In this solo episode of As It Relates to Podcasting, Simona Costantini breaks down exactly how she'd launch from scratch today, using what actually works now: search-first episode design, a trailer plus a 3-episode drop, content buckets that help platforms categorize you, and a distribution workflow built before you ever hit publish.You'll learn how to write titles that match what people are already searching, how to craft a keyword-rich show description that makes it instantly clear who the show is for (and why they should care), and how to build an ecosystem where every episode becomes YouTube content, clips, email, and a repeatable publishing checklist.The goal is simple, and it's the whole thesis of this episode: growth stops feeling like a grind when your podcast is designed to be discovered.Inside this episode:Why launching in 2026 starts with search, not gear, branding, or hypeHow to design episodes for discovery before you recordWhy “clever” show names can confuse both audiences and algorithmsWhat to include in a keyword-rich podcast description (and how to answer “why should they care?”)The 3 content buckets strategy that helps platforms categorize your show fasterWhy one-off, random-topic episodes can stall growth (algorithm confusion is real)How to title episodes based on what the conversation actually became (not what you planned)Launching with intent: trailer timing + dropping 3 episodes at once for binge behavior and retentionThe 3 biggest audience questions approach (and why they should be your first three episodes)Why your “Episode 0” should be a solo episode that builds trust and connectionTitles that perform in 2026: question-based and outcome-driven, written like Google searchWhy to submit to Apple + Spotify early (indexing matters)How to build distribution into your workflow (YouTube, clips, blog, email, guest sharing)The simple, repeatable publishing checklist that prevents burnoutThe core launch truth: podcasts aren't built on trends or luck, they're built on clarityResources:

We track the biggest forces shaping podcasting next year: Goalhanger's network effect, a pivot to listener-based analytics, and the tension between open RSS and closed “podcast” branding from big platforms.

Trying to decide between launching a podcast or writing a book? Here's how to choose the right path for maximum impact. Someone recently booked a free podcast coaching call with me, and this is exactly the question she was trying to figure out: should she write a book or start a podcast first? She had big ideas to share, but limited time and energy. Should she invest it in launching a podcast or finally writing that book she'd been thinking about? It's a fair question. And like so many things in business, the answer is: it depends. In this episode, I walk you through what you need to consider before making your decision and reveal the advice I gave her. And no, it wasn't a self-serving 'podcast, of course!' Here are a few of the key things you need to explore before deciding on the right choice for you: Where you are in clarifying your message Whether or not you already have an audience What you want this content to do for your business and brand If you've got any external deadlines (like a publisher) And, of course, your actual capacity (because both DO take time and energy) This advice isn't off the cuff. I've worked with clients who started with a book and then launched a podcast to support it. Others who started a podcast first and then realized they've got a book's worth of content sitting in their episodes. And some do both (strategically), so they're aligned and reinforcing each other. The key is to zoom out, get clear on your goals, and choose the path (or combo) that makes the most sense for where you are now and where you want to go. If you're wondering whether podcasting should be part of your content strategy, or you want help mapping out how it fits with your book plans, I've got your back.

In this episode, I'm telling you not to start a podcast. Yeah, I said it. These days, everybody's trying to create content just because it looks easy or popular. But most people are doing it for the wrong reasons. I'm breaking down why you should think twice before jumping into podcasting or any kind of content creation just because everybody else is doing it. Show Notes:  [04:58]#1  You do not have something to say that you absolutely cannot not say. [11:28]#2 You are not ready to commit to the long game of building an audience and building trust within that audience. [22:05]#3 You do not have a clear angle nor a clear audience to deliver or to whom you will deliver a clear angle.  [27:21]Recap Episodes Mentioned: 3203: Why Instagram "Ass Models" Exist Next Steps: ---

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. There are so many podcasting tips crammed into this how-to, that even if you already have a podcast, you might pick up some new ideas as you continue to grow your show and podcast audience.

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?  Contact Kristin for Podcast Coaching Looking for a community of podcasters?  Join us in Podcast Membership  Join our FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastcoachingforkingdomentrepreneurs   Connect on IG: @kristinfieldschadwick

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!)

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?

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. It shares all the beginning information, so there's no second-guessing. Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts "I love Amy and Online Marketing Made Easy."
