Are you wasting your first 30 seconds? Is your podcast intro turning people away? Too many podcasters kick off with random chit-chat, life updates, or awkward mic adjustments. Don't let that be you! You've got just half a minute to hook a new listener, and if you don't, they're moving on. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how to craft an intro that grabs attention and keeps your listeners around for the full episode. We're talking about creating a powerful Podcast Promise—an intro that lets listeners know exactly what they're going to get by hitting play. Here's how to set it up for maximum impact: Your Show's Name & Your Name Let listeners know who you are and what show they're tuning into. Skip the laundry list of credentials; just get to the point. Who Your Show Is For Call out your audience directly. Don't try to appeal to everyone—be specific. You want listeners to feel like this show is for them. What You Deliver Every Episode Tell them what they can expect from your show. Be clear about what you bring to the table, but keep it tight. Is it actionable tips? Case studies? Inspiring conversations? Make it clear and avoid a catch-all list. The Outcome or Long-Term Benefit Give them a reason to keep coming back. What problem are you solving for your listeners? What's the long-term benefit they'll gain if they stick around? This is where your podcast promise seals the deal. The right intro doesn't just attract the right listeners—it repels the wrong ones. If your content isn't a match for someone, you want them to know right away so they don't waste their time (or yours!). A strong podcast promise attracts those who are primed for what you offer, making it easier to turn listeners into loyal fans and even clients. Want to hear an example? I share a powerful podcast promise from one of my clients that perfectly illustrates how a clear intro not only brings in the right audience but also pushes away the wrong one. So, is your podcast intro doing the heavy lifting it should? Use this checklist to put yours to the test: Show Name & Host Name Target Listener What You Consistently Deliver Long-Term Benefit for Regular Listeners Put your podcast intro to the test and make sure it's as strong as it can be. With the right intro, you'll hook listeners early, build authority, and set your podcast up to serve you, your audience, and your business. Now that you've analyzed your intro, let's have a look at your whole podcast (and find out how to improve your podcast ROI).

An absolute titan of 20th century comedy, Carl Reiner also was one of the most beloved writers/actors/producers/directors that Hollywood has ever produced beginning with his work on Sid Caesar's Your Show of Shows, then creating The Dick Van Dyke Show, then directing Steve Martin in The Jerk and George Burns in Oh God! And, oh yeah, he also created The 2000 Year Old Man routine with his best friend Mel Brooks. It was a simply amazing comedy career and, as always, you can find extra cuts below and thanks for sharing our shows! Want more Carl Reiner? With The Dick Van Dyke show, Carl created one of the greatest sitcoms of all time and he got in on the acting fun playing the egotistical boss Alan Brady. Here's some Alan's best. https://youtu.be/bHUfCA9EcE4?si=CJin7dTU-Ab5aG28 With Mel Brooks, Carl created one of the greatest two man bits ever, the 2000 Year Old Man. Carl supplied the questions, Mel supplied the answers, and comedy gold was spun. https://youtu.be/XOTKDgrdvdg?si=coNPQPn1iEYfteoA Later in life, Carl was seen as a wise elder to comedy writers and performers so it's no surprise that Jerry Seinfeld featured him on his great show Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. https://youtu.be/grUEiFY1XUg?si=hbEv6LReCj1OcLkj
