Great video and tips! I have to adjust a few regular tips for mu podcast specifically that is intended to put people to sleep (No More Sleepless), so it’s mainly me in long monologues and limited call to action as I want my audience to fall asleep and I know chances are little they will come back the next day for a review. Still lots of takeaways!

Thanks a lot! I think I need to fix my error in number 4.

Ready to press “record” for my podcast, but the “extras”, such as editing, social media marketing, and creating a website to communicate with listeners is quite overwhelming. I need help. Any suggestions? I would love to outsource the technical details and just focus on the content.

Trial & error. Don’t fear failure.

I do "call the action" in each episode, but now, 7 episodes, it still responds nothing, no email subscribe or google form, no feedback, no review, but my audiences (focus on leadership, manager) downloads it still getting quick growth, to the ranking top 8, I don't know my audiences nevertheless. how do I do?

In my earlier episodes - I had no mic, now I do. I hope that did not discourage a few of my listeners - Cheyanne's Jewelry Podcast.
