Mark explains the fundamental differences between Amazon's intent-based selling and Shopify's cold traffic environment, emphasizing the need for brand storytelling. He challenges the common obsession with ROAS, introducing the "holy trinity" of metrics: Customer Acquisition Cost, Lifetime Value, and Average Order Value. Mark also highlights the importance of retention marketing and authentic customer relationships, sharing real success and failure stories to illustrate how strategy, not tactics, drives sustainable e-commerce growth.Here are the 3 action items that Josh identified from this episode:Shift from “conversion” to “connection” Stop treating Shopify like Amazon. Build demand through storytelling, content, and brand experience—optimize for trust and engagement before expecting conversions.Scale with the right metrics (not ROAS) Track and optimize your CAC:LTV:AOV triangle. Aim for a 1:3 CAC:LTV ratio, and be willing to accept lower short-term ROAS to acquire high-value customers.Increase AOV + retention to unlock profit Bundle products, upsell, and improve post-purchase experience. Focus on repeat buyers (email/SMS, loyalty, CX) to maximize LTV and make your paid acquisition sustainable.Timestamps:00:00:38 Introduction to the E-comm Breakthrough PodcastThe announcer introduces the podcast, aimed at helping seven-figure e-commerce business owners unlock their full potential and growth.00:00:52 Host's Introduction and Guest WelcomeHost Josh Hadley introduces himself and the episode's guest, Mark Young, CEO of Ryze Agency and author.00:02:12 The Challenge of Scaling from Amazon to ShopifyMark discusses why brands successful on Amazon often struggle on Shopify, highlighting the fundamental differences between the platforms.00:04:15 Amazon vs. Shopify: Intent vs. Cold TrafficA breakdown of how Amazon is an intent-based platform, while Shopify requires cold traffic marketing and brand storytelling.00:05:57 Common Misconceptions Brands Have with AgenciesMark explains the two types of clients he encounters: startups who think they know everything and brands with agency trauma.00:08:20 The Problem with Over-relying on ROASMark details why Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) is a "fool's metric" and how agencies can manipulate it.00:11:02 The Holy Trinity of E-commerce MetricsMark explains the three core KPIs brands should focus on: Lifetime Value (LTV), Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), and Average Order Value (AOV).00:18:24 The Importance of Average Order Value (AOV)Discussion on why an AOV of at least $50-$100 is crucial for profitability due to shipping costs and consumer psychology.00:21:09 Focusing on Customer Experience and RetentionMark argues that brands focus too much on acquisition and not enough on creating an impressive backend customer experience.00:24:49 The Mindset Shift from Amazon to ShopifyBrands moving from Amazon must learn to focus on customer experience and brand storytelling, which Amazon handles for them.00:28:11 Building a Relational BrandThe importance of creating a personal, relational brand on Shopify, as opposed to Amazon's transactional nature.

In this solo episode of CockTales with Kiki, Kiki gets into what it really means to show up — for your friends, your relationships, and yourself. After a Sip & Spill caller admits she's nervous about planning a party only to have people cancel, the conversation opens up into flakiness, dating etiquette, last-minute cancellations, and the difference between protecting your peace and simply being inconsiderate.Kiki also answers an Ask Kiki letter from a listener who feels like she's wasting her twenties waiting for the next chapter of her life to finally begin, plus another very different dilemma involving a boyfriend, old sex videos, and one extremely questionable camera roll.From RSVP anxiety to mixed signals and learning how to enjoy your life before everything is perfectly figured out, this episode is about who shows up, who flakes, and what it really means.Follow me! @kikisaidso & @cocktalespodcastContact Me!Advice: advice@cocktalespod.comCockTales: cocktales@cocktalespod.comAdvertising: cameron@pleasurepodcasts.com Sip & Spill where I sip and you spill: 404-692-0039Sponsors/Special Offers:IROHAAugust is Orgasm Month!

Podcasting 2.0 August 28th 2026 Episode 269 - "Verbal Pollution" Shownotes ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00 - DATABASE SURGERY WEEK — AND THE THIRD EMERGENCY OF THE MONTH The lead, and it's Dave's: Saturday 22 Aug — "#api I'm in the middle of a big refactor with the Podcast Index database schema. If I do my job right, nobody will notice it. But, the side effect will be an overall huge increase in the consistency of the data (duplicates, url change lag, etc)." @dave — the big schema refactor (22 Aug) Wednesday night: "Podcast Index database surgery will begin in the morning." Thursday: "Step 1. Expect a brief api outage. It should last just a few minutes." — then "Done" — then "#api Adding a very large table index..." — and finally, Thursday evening: "Finished. Butt is intact." (6 favourites. The board's favourite status update of the month.) What Adam should ask: what actually changed under the hood, what does "consistency" buy an app developer in practice, and is there anything a host or an app should do differently now that duplicates and url-change lag are being cleaned up?

When We Waffle – Episode 34: Wonder-WaffleWhy Wonder-Waffle? Absolutely no reason whatsoever. And frankly, that's reason enough.Christmas is slowly creeping up on the gang in this archive episode, so Terry, Kat and Laurie get vaguely festive and start talking about their favourite things about Christmas — while simultaneously managing to slag off a considerable amount of Christmas along the way.There's festive nostalgia, Christmas gripes, random stories and all the usual conversational nonsense before Ray Medallion inevitably rings in with another dose of wisdom nobody requested. Donald Trump also makes his usual appearance with more tales, opinions and complete nonsense from his peculiar corner of the world.And in a moment nobody knew they needed, Kat unleashes her Cyndi Lauper impression. Christmas truly has arrived.It's festive-ish, chaotic, occasionally cynical and packed with the impressions, stories and ridiculous tangents that make up another classic episode of When We Waffle.These archive episodes are being played here for the first time after being locked away for almost 10 years, carefully remastered and restored by Peters-Fox Ltd. And there's plenty more to come — including brand-new When We Waffle later this year.Hosted by Terry Mynott, Katrina Fox and Laurie Peters.Produced, remastered, edited and published by Peters-Fox Ltd.Follow the show, tell a fellow waffler and come back Tuesday and Friday for another helping of When We Waffle.Instagram: instagram.com/whenwewaffle

Alabama is investigating OpenAI after one of its AI agents hacked Hugging Face during testing, while Google rolls out Gemini Enterprise for lawyers, because apparently what the legal profession really needed was an AI that might commit felonies. Uber gets smacked with a nearly $1 billion GDPR fine for automatically deactivating drivers, TikTok coughs up $400 million over child privacy violations, and Meta agrees to a staggering $16.68 billion settlement over alleged harms to kids. Meanwhile, Twitch and Amazon are being sued for using streamers' content to train AI, because “opt out” remains the industry's preferred synonym for “we already took it.”Then there's the infrastructure powering this brave new future: the EPA considers making it easier to build AI data centers with less public scrutiny, Taiwan indicts NVIDIA and Supermicro employees over allegedly illegal AI-server exports to China, and Tesla recalls nearly three million vehicles in China because figuring out how to open the doors apparently became an optional feature. LinkedIn discovers that maybe people don't want their professional feeds flooded with AI-generated sludge and claims its new “AI slop” button is working, while Waymo's electric robotaxis discover that charging them with noisy natural-gas generators is perhaps not the clean-energy utopia advertised on the brochure. Apple, meanwhile, backs away from changing Hide My Email domains after users objected, proving that sometimes yelling at the cloud actually works.Plus: Star Trek goes Muppet, books worth reading, nerf guys, AI-generated Hacker News stats, retro gaming, and the sad news of both Dolly Parton and Tim Curry's deaths.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.StoryBlocks - For a limited time, they're offering 15% off any annual plan at storyblocks.com/gogHIMS - Visit Hims.com/gog to get a personalized, affordable plan that gets you.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

In 2000, Katie Couric underwent a live colonoscopy on national television following the death of her husband, Jay Monahan, from colorectal cancer at age 42. The broadcast demystified a procedure many Americans feared, led to an estimated 20% increase in colonoscopy screenings, and became one of the clearest examples of how public storytelling can change healthcare behavior.This episode examines how celebrities, journalists, filmmakers, and entertainers helped reshape the public conversation about cancer during a period when survivorship was becoming increasingly visible. As breakthroughs in targeted therapies, immunotherapy, and early detection allowed more people to live beyond cancer, public figures used their platforms to encourage screening, reduce stigma, and accelerate research. Their influence extended far beyond awareness campaigns, helping transform cancer from a private diagnosis into a national public health conversation.Central to this story is Laura Ziskin, the Hollywood producer behind Pretty Woman and the Spider-Man films, whose metastatic breast cancer diagnosis inspired the creation of Stand Up To Cancer. Working alongside Couric and leaders from entertainment, journalism, and biomedical research, Ziskin championed a new funding model that required multidisciplinary scientific collaboration, helping accelerate discoveries that contributed to multiple FDA-approved cancer therapies. The episode also highlights the advocacy of actor Patrick Dempsey, whose family's experience with ovarian cancer led to the creation of the Dempsey Center, expanding support for patients and caregivers beyond medical treatment.The story also asks what celebrity advocacy often leaves unsaid. Financial toxicity, caregiver burden, chronic pain, mental health, and the long-term effects of treatment rarely receive the same attention as dramatic diagnoses or breakthrough cures. As cancer survivorship continues to evolve, the greatest challenge may not be convincing people to care about cancer, but helping them understand what it truly means to live with and beyond it.RELATED LINKSStand Up To Cancer⁠Katie Couric Media⁠Dempsey Center⁠American Association for Cancer Research⁠National Cancer Institute⁠Dana-Farber Cancer Institute | Adult Survivorship Program⁠FEEDBACKLike this episode?

Drawing from his own experience, including a four-week time study, Josh outlines where CEOs should invest their time at each growth stage. Key focus areas include attracting top talent, defining brand vision, building strategic partnerships, and optimizing financial models.

Welcome to the Ecomm Breakthrough Podcast. I'm Josh Hadley. I've scaled my own ecommerce brand from 0 to 8 figures, and I'm actively building towards nine figures in sales. This podcast is where I document that journey and share the systems, the strategies, and the lessons learned in real time so that you can learn what actually matters and scale your own business. First of all, my name is Josh Hadley. I am a man of faith. I am a husband to a beautiful wife and a father of four children. I have been selling in the e-commerce space for over a decade, doing multi-million in revenue on channels such as Amazon, TikTok, Shop and Shopify. And I am also the host of the number one business strategy podcast for ecommerce entrepreneurs. And that is E-com breakthrough. Today, we're going to talk about what it means to actually be a CEO, especially when you're the entrepreneur who built the organization from scratch.Josh Hadley 00:00:58  And here's the challenge. There's not a direct playbook that applies to every single business that you have to follow. And so the role of the CEO is, frankly speaking, quite nebulous. And it requires a massive amount of adaptability and extensive leadership skills in order to pull this off in a significant way. At the end of the day, if you look at any $100 million brand, it all goes back to how good the original leader or founder was or was not. Sometimes there is kind of like lightning strikes and it's a really crappy leader and a really crappy founder, and they just hit a significant product market fit. That does happen. And honestly speaking, those are more often than not, a lot of the news stories that you hear about doesn't mean they were actually that good of an operator or that great of a leader. And so with that being said, what do you do and how do. How does your role as a CEO have to evolve as your ecommerce brand is growing over time? And so let's talk about it because this is something that has happened for me in my own business, and I'm speaking from experience.Josh Hadley 00:02:00  And to be honest with you, right now, I'm going through another weird inflection point in my business, and that's where this is coming from. I recently conducted a four week time study where I studied my time literally from sunup to sundown. I jotted down everything I did in 15 minute increments, and using AI and using my own human intelligence, I thought through and said, hey, what am I doing right? That is actually CEO level work, and what am I doing that like, is not CEO level work that needs to be delegated, deleted, or sometimes doubled down on. And so it's from that mindset that I understood, wow, there's a lot of things that I need to add, delete and delegate to other people. And that honestly leaves me in this like weird spot where, hey, if I'm delegating that to somebody else, what am I supposed to be doing? And so it's in that question of me asking ...

Howie Chan is an influence strategist, branding expert, and marketing consultant who specializes in the psychology behind human decision-making. After losing a $10 million pitch early in his career, Howie became obsessed with understanding the invisible forces that shape behavior, communication, leadership, storytelling, and negotiation. Today, he helps MedTech companies and professionals build stronger brands and attract better opportunities by applying behavioral science and influence psychology. On this episode we talk about: The $10 million pitch Howie lost and how it sparked his obsession with influence psychology How getting laid off after 20 years in the corporate world pushed Howie into entrepreneurship Why experts should use LinkedIn to build a professional brand and attract opportunities The difference between a personal brand and a professional brand—and why solving problems matters more than follower counts How podcasts, strategic associations, and social proof can build trust and accelerate your influence Top 3 Takeaways Turn failure into a learning opportunity. Instead of dwelling on a loss, ask, “What do I not know?” and figure out what you can learn to prevent the same mistake from happening again. Make your professional brand clear, not clever. Your LinkedIn profile should immediately communicate who you help and what problems you solve. Focus on the quality of opportunities you attract rather than vanity metrics like follower counts. Build influence through a flywheel of visibility, trust, and association. People first need to notice you, then remember you, trust you, and ultimately choose or recommend you. Podcasting can accelerate that process by allowing you to consistently demonstrate expertise and associate your brand with respected experts. Notable Quotes “There are a lot of hidden things that we don't know about. We think we know, but we don't, that's influencing decision making every single day.” “Make it clear.

Vincenzo is an expert in optimizing and scaling brands on Amazon. He is the CEO of e-commerce, where they have helped more than 1000 local, national and international brands. Sell more on Amazon globally. E-commerce is a full service Amazon consultancy providing tactical execution support and strategic consulting services for Amazon sellers and vendors focused on mid to large size brands. E-commerce uses a specialist consulting framework, deep analytical ability and powerful technology to grow their customers revenue on Amazon. So with that introduction, welcome to the show Vincenzo.Vincenzo 00:00:46  Thank you. Josh, it's a pleasure and thank you for having me on Vincenzo.Josh 00:00:49  I'm super curious to dive into like the influencer marketing in the blogs, like how are you reaching out to these influencers and how are you Negotiating, you know, payment for these because a lot of influencers, it's like you have to pay me a thousand bucks just for me to post it, and then it will be on my story for 24 hours, and then it's gone.Josh 00:01:12  Right? And you're like, wow, I've got to make a lot of money. I've got to make a lot of sales. Yeah, in those 24 hours to make it worth it. So tell me about, you know, a how you're finding these influencers and bloggers, and then B, what type of payment structure are you coming up with.Vincenzo 00:01:29  Sure. So the first tip and this would be for YouTube. One thing that my team does, and of course the only downside of this is that it's very manual work. So it's going to be time consuming if you don't want to use a platform, but still it's an option to do it. So what you will do is you go to YouTube and let's say you want to do vitamin C, right? So you're gonna put all is the name of the product. And then then you put Amazon. So it could be vitamin C, Amazon or top vitamin C Amazon. And the reason why you put Amazon is because at the end of the day, YouTube is a search engine.Vincenzo 00:01:59  And that is gonna matches most of the time with videos that say top ten vitamin C on Amazon, or even if it's not title, it's gonna match it with the link of the influencer. Because if these guys do influence, they have an Amazon influencer account. The links that they put in the description have the Amazon world on it. Therefore, the search engine is going to match me with those videos. And that's the first filtering. I already know. Which ones are the guys that have been working with Amazon brands in the past. They know how the whole ecosystem works, and it's easier than working with a person that, you know, they just do blogs and they don't even have an idea about what is selling on Amazon. So I want to make sure they speak the same language. That's the first thing. The second thing is when it comes to payment terms. So these are different ways you can do it. So the first way of doing it is a matching the Amazon Commission as I mentioned.Vincenzo 00:02:50  So for example if they do 3% or 5% for Amazon with double, so we give 610% to them. Another option that we do is to write them matching the the commission. We might do just a flat fee, right? Maybe initially, when you know that relationship still doesn't exist with influence, it would do a flat fee, which I know sometimes it can be heavy, as you mentioned. But again, there there are many ways for you to, you know, analyze the, the actual YouTube channel. There are tools that you put the, the hashtag and it gives you like the history, the views, engagement and so on. And that can give you like a good idea about how good this influencer is. And based on that, if this guy asks you for 1000, but then you see that the average likes for videos like two likes, you see that that traffic is fake. So that's a red flag. And the third option, which is this is the most difficult to get. But if you get this, I would say this one is the best way.Vincenzo 00:03:46  It's basically you you transform this person into an ambassador, right. So an ambassador means that basically they become like the face of your product, and they basically talk about your product and pretty much every single video. Like it could be a banner at the beginning or you start sponsoring ...

When We Waffle – Episode 33Another episode, another complete absence of anything resembling a plan.Terry, Kat and Laurie are back around the microphones for more When We Waffle — plenty of stories, ridiculous observations, mad impressions and conversations that begin somewhere vaguely sensible before disappearing off in entirely unexpected directions.Donald Trump is back with more of his increasingly unbelievable nonsense, while Ray Medallion rings in once again to share the sort of life advice that absolutely nobody asked for but everybody probably needs to hear.Throw in Terry's ever-growing collection of characters, Kat and Laurie's contributions to the chaos and all the usual spontaneous silliness, and you've got another hour of When We Waffle doing what it does best — talking absolute nonsense and having a bloody good time doing it.These archive episodes are being played here for the first time after being locked away for almost 10 years, carefully remastered and restored by Peters-Fox Ltd. And there's plenty more to come — including brand-new When We Waffle later this year.Hosted by Terry Mynott, Katrina Fox and Laurie Peters.Produced, remastered, edited and published by Peters-Fox Ltd.Follow the show, tell a fellow waffler and come back Tuesday and Friday for another helping of When We Waffle.Instagram: instagram.com/whenwewaffle

In 2006, a landmark report titled Closing the Gap: Research and Care Imperatives for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer confirmed what young survivors had been saying for years. While survival rates for children and older adults had steadily improved, adolescents and young adults had experienced decades of stalled progress. They had become cancer's lost generation.This episode explores how young adult survivors transformed their shared isolation into one of the most influential grassroots movements in cancer advocacy. Diagnosed during the years typically devoted to education, careers, relationships, and starting families, patients between the ages of 15 and 39 confronted challenges that extended far beyond treatment. Fertility preservation, sexual health, employment, financial toxicity, insurance, and long-term quality of life were rarely discussed in oncology clinics, leaving many to navigate survivorship alone.The episode follows advocates including Tamika Felder, Lindsay Avner, Heidi Adams, Doug Ulman, and Dr. Archie Bleyer, whose research and advocacy fundamentally changed how medicine understands adolescent and young adult cancer. Through organizations including Planet Cancer, Fertile Hope, the Lance Armstrong Foundation, and later Stupid Cancer, survivors built online communities, educational resources, conferences, and national partnerships that challenged long-standing assumptions about cancer care. Their work helped establish fertility preservation as a standard discussion before treatment, expanded research dedicated to adolescent and young adult oncology, and elevated quality of life as a critical clinical outcome alongside survival.The movement also demonstrated the power of lived experience to reshape medicine. Survivors became researchers, educators, nonprofit founders, and policy advocates, insisting that cancer care account not only for years of life saved, but for the lives patients hoped to build afterward.What began as a search for peers evolved into a national movement that permanently transformed adolescent and young adult oncology. Today, dedicated research programs, clinical fellowships, survivorship resources, and patient advocacy organizations continue to build on the foundation these young cancer mavericks created.RELATED LINKSNational Cancer Institute | Adolescent and Young Adult (AYA) Cancer Program⁠Closing the Gap: Research and Care Imperatives for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer⁠American Society of Clinical Oncology | Fertility Preservation Guidelines⁠Stupid Cancer⁠Livestrong Foundation⁠Journal of Adolescent and Young Adult Oncology⁠FEEDBACKLike this episode?

This episode is presented by Create A Video – The owner of a Charlotte bakery that has been virtually beatified by local media and Democrats (but I repeat myself) confronted the former US Border Patrol commander, Gregory Bovino, who was in the parking lot doing a podcast. Manolo Betancur then parlayed the encounter into a press release, speech at City Hall, and an appeal for more support. Bovino led the immigration enforcement action in Charlotte last year - which prompted Betancur to close his bakery. He claims he did it to protect his employees and customers. Bovino says he probably closed because he's employing illegal aliens.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com  

This episode is presented by Create A Video – A Charlotte business owner held up as a local hero during the immigration enforcement operation here last year encountered the former Border Patrol commander who led the effort. But when Greg Bovino engaged in the argument with Manolo Betancu, it was evident that the baker from Colombia had only surface-level slogans and could not get any deeper. Despite all of his media interviews over the past year, this is probably the first time he's actually been challenged to defend his opinions.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com  

This episode is presented by Create A Video – Apparently, former North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory's office recorded a call with the NBA Commissioner during the HB2 fight a decade ago. It turns out the Commish said very different things in private than he did in public over the "bathroom bill" fight. Plus, what counts as "stealing an election?" I discuss with Andrew Dunn - the publisher of Longleaf Politics and a contributing columnist to The Charlotte Observer. He's also the author of the book The Change Agent: Pat McCrory's Rise, Reckoning and Legacy. Also, a Mecklenburg judge let a guy out of jail after he was charged with threatening to shoot up five Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast My preferred podcast platform: SpreakerAll the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com

It's one thing to talk about what strategic podcast decisions look like in theory. It's another thing entirely to watch someone actually make them—and see the results play out in real numbers, real sponsorships, and a real business.That's exactly what happened with Ali Haney, host of the Brand & Market podcast and a Podcasting for Business alumna. Over the last year, Ali went from a podcast pulling in 25 to 30 downloads per episode to one that's landed a paying sponsor, far more than doubled its download average, and become a genuine lead generator for her business. This is a look at how she got there—and what it reveals about what strategic podcasting actually requires.Clocking In with Haylee Gaffin is produced by Gaffin Creative, a podcast production company for creative entrepreneurs.

What is Your Rock Bottom Podcast Downloads Number?Everybody talks about growing their audience. Nobody talks about the number where they'd quietly give up.This month's Question of the Month flips the growth conversation on its head: what's the smallest number of downloads that would keep you making your show — and if you dropped below it, would you quit, or try to fix it? The answers from School of Podcasting listeners are surprisingly close... and my answer might not be a number at all.Also in this episode: a guest-pitch so bad it somehow involves a U-Haul dealership, and a heads-up on a booking-platform trick you'll want to know before you pitch yourself as a guest anywhere.In this episodeThis month's Question of the Month: what's your download floor?Steve Stewart says he'd think about quitting under 25 downloads an episode — but here's why he probably wouldn'tFrank Bravo is already running on "10s" of downloads, and explains why that number doesn't bother himRalph Estep Jr. went from 20 downloads to over 1,000 — but what actually keeps him going isn't the numberDave's answer: which of his 30+ podcasts he let die, which ones he kept, and why it's rarely about the download countThe 6-episode survey test — how to know if it's time to change your show or just accept where it's atScott Johnson (What Was That Like) shares the worst guest pitch he's ever receivedA warning about how some guests are gaming booking platforms like PodMatch — and how to vet who you let on your showLinks mentionedSchool of Podcasting — use code LISTENER for a discount on monthly, quarterly, or yearly plansPodPage — this episode's sponsorSteve Stewart — Podcast Editor Academy / Podcast Editors MastermindFrank Bravo — Your Tech MakeoverRalph Estep Jr. — ralphestepjr.com / new show: Becoming Financially Confident (launching Aug 31)Scott Johnson — What Was That LikeYork - Welcome to Earth StoriesPodMatchPodcastGuest.comPitch a PodcastBuilding a Better DaveMarketing MusicianWeekly Web ToolsNew To CookingThis content may contain affiliate links, meaning I earn a small commission if you purchase through these links at no additional cost to you.

It automatically emails your subscribers the moment a new episode goes live — no third-party email tool needed. When you publish, Podpage sends the email, links listeners straight to the episode, routes replies to your own inbox, and handles unsubscribes automatically. They also run every email address through validation and monitor bounces/spam complaints to protect your sender reputation. It's not meant to replace a full newsletter platform — no drip campaigns or segmentation — just a simple "hey, new episode's up" notification. It's available for Pro and Elite users, with monthly sending caps of 500 emails on Pro and 5,000 on Elite.
