Transcript with Audio Description: [MUSIC IN - GHOSTHOOD FEATURING SARA AZRIEL “LET'S GO” BEGINS] MARY: When looking at new podcasts for something to listen to on your podcast player, sometimes one just stands out. For me, it was quite a few years ago when the title But What Do I Know grabbed my attention. It was nominated for a podcast award and it really resonated with me because, the imposter syndrome behind that question, my need for continual learning, and also learning from a fellow Canadian, which was rare at that time. When I saw the show, Canadian podcasts weren't really highlighted as Canadian, but really it was all about that imposter syndrome part. That little girl's uncertainty that I have that still lingers inside of me even as I am a 45 year old woman today. Right. Like all of this stuff comes up, and it came up through that one question, the title of her podcast. So I added But What Do I Know? to my list, even though I didn't listen to it, not in the beginning at least, because I wasn't ready to face my inner struggles with that little girl that I was talking about, right? That struggle of, ooh, I actually have to look at this now. Nah. But I'll still save it on my podcast player because you just never know, right? And then I fast forward to last year, 2024, and the podcast was rebranded and it spoke to me even more. I was like, wait a minute, why did this rebrand happen? What's different? What's going on? And it piqued my curiosity. So I was like, okay, leaning towards the curiosity versus, ooh, do I have to face my inner demons? And that was the change for me. And I decided to hit play because I realized, yeah, what do I know? Because I could learn from Chidinma Azubuike. Chidinma and I chat about her podcasting journey and what success looks like for her now. Because as we know, podcasting is a lot of work. So how does her curiosity and drive to build community work for her podcast today? This is episode number 97 on the Podcaster's Guide to a Visible Voice.

What does coming back strong from a podcast hiatus look like? In the day-to-day chaos of our lives—balancing work, family, personal time, household upkeep, etc, etc—it's perfectly understandable if it feels like a bit much to plan, record, publish, and market a podcast on top of that. If you're thinking about pressing pause on your show, or you already have, rest assured, you can take that step without derailing your past progress. In this episode, Mary talks you through how to put your show on hiatus and set yourself up to return strong. Whether you plan to reimagine the whole thing or just take a break before diving back into business as usual, you'll want to ponder the goals of your podcast, your ideal workflow, and—maybe most importantly—the fact that taking breaks is a natural and healthy part of continuing to enjoy your podcasting journey! Start preparing for your pause and your return right now: Why it's important to keep your listeners in the loop How to incorporate the role you want your podcast to play What to include in an updated feature episode once you're back Why it's a great idea to build in breaks ahead of time Links worth mentioning from the episode: Episode 87, “Find Podcast Success While Doing Less”: https://www.organizedsound.ca/find-podcast-success-while-doing-less-episode-87/ Episode 84, “Simplify Your Workflow to Keep Your Podcasting Passion Alive”: https://www.organizedsound.ca/simplify-your-workflow-to-keep-your-podcasting-passion-alive-with-craig-constantine-episode-84/ Podtalk, “Presence with Mary Chan”: https://podtalk.show/presence-with-mary-chan/ Connect with Mary!

Transcript with Audio Description: [MUSIC IN - GHOSTHOOD FEATURING SARA AZRIEL “LET'S GO” BEGINS] MARY: With all this uncertainty in the world, podcasting is, spoiler alert, not going to be your number one priority in your life. Okay, I know. Maybe it's already on the back burner for you, actually, and you feel this nagging feeling to do something. It's like, oh, I have my podcast. I should put out an episode, or, oh, I want to talk about these things, but, oh, I don't know, how do I have time? It's kind of nagging you. But the overwhelm of everything else in your life either A, doesn't give you the time to record, or B, the mental capacity to say a coherent sentence at this time is truly, truly lacking. So what is it like to take a pause from your podcast and also then come back too, with that intention? How do you restart or maybe reimagine your podcast if you're in a season of overwhelm or busyness? Or you know what, it's been on the back burner for a while and you're like, I want to come back now. So what can you do either to prep for this pause or figuring out what it can look like when you want to come back? This is episode number 96 on the Podcaster's Guide to a Visible Voice.
If you're posting on socials consistently but still not seeing consistent sales, it's time to evaluate what's really working.I'll break down why short-form visibility doesn't equal demand—and how to shift from burnout content cycles into a podcast strategy that builds trust and drives results.You'll learn:Why most content strategies fail to build real connectionWhat today's buyers actually need to say “yes”How to use your voice to close the trust gap fasterWhat to create instead of more content (and why it works better)2 simple actions to take today to start repositioning your contentIf you're ready to simplify your content strategy and start creating from a place of alignment, this is the place to begin.
Every podcaster dreams of saying those magic words: “This show is brought to you by…” But for many creators, sponsorships feel like a far-off goal - something reserved for those with big audiences, fancy video setups, or industry connections. And the result? Talented hosts with powerful content hesitate to pitch themselves, assuming they're not “ready” yet.In this episode, I sat down with Justin Moore, sponsorship coach, creator, educator, and author of Sponsor Magnet. Justin has helped creators - from niche YouTubers to newsletter writers - land over a million dollars in sponsorship deals. And he's here to share a perspective that might completely change how you think about monetizing your podcast: you don't need massive numbers to make sponsorships happen. You just need the right mindset, the right strategy, and a more creative approach to what you're offering.Chapters:00:00 – Intro: Why Most Podcasters Feel Sponsorships Are Out of Reach01:45 – You Don't Need Big Numbers to Get Sponsorships (Here's Why)04:30 – The Sponsorship Continuum: How Your Pitch Changes As You Grow07:15 – Niche Shows Win: How Small Audiences Can Land Big Deals10:10 – How to Pitch Brands Using the R.O.P.E.

It's 2025, and women in the U.S. are listening to podcasts at three times the rate they were just a decade ago.If you're a podcaster speaking to a female audience—or thinking about starting a show—this is your moment. And in this week's episode, I brought in YouTube and video podcast strategist Yesenia Bocanegra so that we could discuss Women's Audio Report: Women & Podcasts, the latest Edison Research & SiriusXM study that highlights female listener behavior. The study reveals how women in the U.S. are consuming podcasts in 2025, what content they're looking for, and how we - as podcasters, marketers, and business owners - can show up with more intention, strategy, and impact.But this isn't just a data breakdown. It's a conversation about storytelling, emotional connection, and why podcasting continues to be one of the most intimate and powerful mediums out there. Especially for women.While video podcasts are gaining traction, audio still leads:52% of women overall consume podcasts45% listen to audio-only shows33% watch video podcastsThe rise of smart TVs as a podcast consumption device is a game changer — especially for creators repurposing content on YouTube.Chapters:00:00 – Intro: Why Women Are Listening to More Podcasts Than Ever01:50 – Podcasting Is Still Worth It: The 60 Million Listener Opportunity04:35 – Audio vs. Video Podcasting: What the Data Really Says06:30 – Who Is the Female Podcast Listener in 2025?08:20 – The Emotional Why: Inspiration, Escapism, and Life Challenges11:00 – What Genres Are Women Really Listening To?14:05 – Social Media and Discovery: How Women Find New Podcasts Now17:10 – Representation Matters: Why Female Hosts Connect More Deeply21:25 – How Listeners Take Action: From Follows to Subscriptions25:40 – What You Should Do With This Data27:10 – Co-Listening With Kids: Podcasting as a Family Bonding Tool30:20 – Monetization Insights: How Female Listeners Support Creators33:45 – Final ThoughtsResources mentioned in this episode:For the full list of links, resources and show notes, please visit:https://www.thepodcastspace.com/podcast/s3-e98-why-women-are-listening-to-more-podcasts-than-ever-and-what-that-means-for-us-as-hostsDiscount code for the newsletter guide: https://thepodcastspace.kit.com/products/5-quick-effective-newsletter-formats-for?promo=EARLYBIRDEdison Research Study: https://www.edisonresearch.com/womens-podcast-listenership-triples-in-ten-years/Subscribe to the Podcast on Audio Platforms: https://bit.ly/3Y4bF2c Subscribe to our newsletter for more Podcast Tips: https://thepodcastspace.ck.page/32680fa82e

Have you ever felt like your podcast is a hidden treasure just waiting to be discovered? You're not alone. Many podcasters are sitting on a goldmine of content, unaware of how to leverage it for greater visibility and growth. In my recent conversation with Aime Cox, founder of Studio Cotton, we delved into the nitty-gritty of maximizing podcast exposure through effective website strategies, and the insights were too valuable not to share.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Common Podcasting Questions01:14 SEO and Content Strategies for Podcasters03:29 Website Strategies for Podcasters07:36 Optimizing Episode Pages for SEO13:08 Leveraging Backlinks and Internal Links16:40 Monetizing and Promoting Your Podcast21:10 SEO Maintenance and Optimization Tips24:50 Boosting Local SEO for Your Podcast25:08 Maximizing Sponsor Visibility25:34 Creating Helpful Links and Pitching Guidelines26:51 Importance of Sponsorship Packages and Media Kits28:41 Debating Podcast Landing Pages vs. Hosting Platforms31:10 SEO Benefits of Podcast Content32:59 Using Transcripts and Show Notes for SEO34:38 Recommended Tools for Podcasters37:08 Investing in a Professional Podcast Website38:36 Using 'We' vs. 'I' in Your Brand49:00 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsWhy Your Podcast Needs Its Own SpaceOne of the first things Aime emphasized was the importance of having a dedicated space for your podcast. Too often, podcasters lump their shows onto a business website without realizing that a podcast requires a unique strategy. A podcast website should be its own brand, focused on driving engagement and subscribership without compromising the business goals of your website.The best time to consider separating your podcast into its own domain is when you're ready to grow it into an independent entity. This shift allows you to create focused content that attracts specific audiences and, in turn, delivers more meaningful leads to your associated business.Resources mentioned in this episode:Let's work together to grow your podcast.

Do you wish there was a more efficient way to create content that required less hands-on time? Enter email marketing, an age-old tool that's as effective today as ever.Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Email Marketing for Podcasters01:36 The Power of Email Marketing03:10 Common Misconceptions and Challenges of Podcasters06:33 Effective Newsletter Formats for Podcast Hosts09:57 Creating Consistent and Engaging Content 17:36 Tools and Strategies for Success for Podcast Hosts19:33 Conclusion and Special OfferThe Hidden Gem in Podcast MarketingMany podcasters shy away from email marketing, overthinking its complexities and harboring misconceptions about what a successful newsletter entails. But here's the truth: email marketing can drastically increase your chances of monetization and help grow your podcast audience. I've tested the strategies I'm about to share not only for my brand, The Podcast Space, but also for my clients who have longed to start a newsletter but felt defeated by the dreaded "empty page syndrome."Why Email Marketing MattersDid you know email marketing offers one of the best returns on investment? For every dollar you spend, you're likely to gain $36 back. That's a staggering 3600% ROI! Despite being one of the oldest marketing tools, it's highly effective in connecting with audiences and driving sales. One of the biggest advantages for brands is its trackability, which can be murkier in the podcasting realm.The Power of ConnectionFor podcasters, newsletters offer a level of intimacy and directness that social media often cannot. Unlike the noise on social media feeds, where only about 1-4% of your audience sees your content, emails land directly in your subscribers' inboxes, offering a distraction-free way to engage with your content. This direct line to your audience is invaluable.Resources mentioned in this episode:Let's work together to grow your podcast.

How do you know if social media is really worth it? Social media inundates almost every aspect of our lives these days, from communicating with friends to deciding what to listen to, watch, or buy—all the way down the line to actually listening to, watching, and buying it. So, of course, many podcast creators worry that leaving social media behind is an enormous marketing faux pas. But what if it isn't? Amanda Laird is the marketing pro behind Slow and Steady Studio. She wields more than two decades of PR and management experience to help small businesses and non-profits do just enough marketing to reach their goals in ways that make sense for them. In this episode, Amanda shares plenty of tips for figuring out whether that social media slog is paying off. You'll discover the link between podcasting and social media, as well as the first steps to determining exactly how social media marketing serves your podcast—and how your podcast serves you—so you can make strategic decisions that drive success rather than drive you crazy. Hear Amanda's insights on how essential social media really is to podcast marketing: What benefits are social media providing for your show? Where does podcasting fit in your marketing sandwich? What is your podcast's consistent call to action? Should you consider moving your podcast to Substack?

Transcript with Audio Description: [MUSIC IN - GHOSTHOOD FEATURING SARA AZRIEL “LET'S GO” BEGINS] MARY: There's no shortage of distraction these days. We are digitally connected, and there's so much we can learn or be entertained by, especially from the world of social media. And today it's even more heightened because of all the research into how social media is playing a negative role in our mental health, and especially with kids growing up in this digital, like, hyper digital age. You know, recently, last year, there was Jonathan Haidt's wildly popular book called The Anxious Generation, how it connects social media to the epidemic of teen mental illness. Yet, as podcasters, we use social media without thinking much about it sometimes. We use it to promote our show. And if you have a business or organization that's tied to the podcast, that you need to talk about your message too, and it's all done on our screens, and it feels as if social media is the number one way to market the show, or sometimes even, like, the only way to market your show. So as a podcaster, we might think without social media, your message might sink without it. However, there really are alternatives. We marketed way before social media even existed. And so I've always thought, why can't we still market today like we did back in the day before social media existed? So on today's episode, we're talking about marketing without social media with Amanda Laird. Amanda is the Founder of Slow and Steady Studio and a marketing communications strategist. She has more than 20 years of experience in communications and PR and management, and now helps solopreneurs, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations do what she calls “just enough marketing to reach their goals their way”. And I love the idea of just enough marketing because I worked with her on one of her Clarity Sessions about two years ago. You know, my side of the story, which I tell briefly on the episode, is basically realizing how social media actually plays a role in my business and podcast, or actually the lack of a role social media actually plays and what I can be doing instead of social media. But also knowing it might play a little part in what I do. So I am still on it. So it's about talking about how to best use my time and stop that doom scrolling. Amanda and I also get into Substack. I really wanted to highlight this with her because it's the new shiny object for podcasters and the Internet. So Substack is heavily using podcasting and video on their platform. So if you're wondering about Substack, listen through to the whole episode and how that can or cannot integrate with your podcast. So, yeah, if you're curious or just wondering if you should be giving up on social media or even figuring out if you want to do less on these social platforms. Today's episode is for you. This is episode number 91 with Amanda Laird on the Podcaster's Guide to a Visible Voice. > MARY: Thank you so much for listening to the Podcaster's Guide to a Visible Voice. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd love it if you share it with a podcasting friend. And to reveal more voicing and podcasting tips, click on over to VisibleVoicePodcast.com. Until next time.
