If you are serious about podcasting, chances are you have set big goals for yourself, like growing your listenership tenfold. This is a great goal, the problem with it is that every podcaster shares the same goal, and reaching it could feel like an uphill battle.
Setting result-based goals, especially lofty ones, is detrimental to the success of your show. This may sound counterintuitive, but hear us out!
On today’s episode, our host, Kevin Chemidlin, explains why setting result goals isn’t as effective as we think they are, and how action goals are the key to the success of your podcast. Kevin shares his story about how he lost 120 lbs by switching from result goals to action goals, and how he used the same concept in podcasting.
The success from action goals is astounding, and Kevin wants to help change your perspective on how to set goals so you can grow your show exponentially too.
Tune in to hear how you can reframe your goals for the new year!
