    Ep. 325 - Podcasting to Get Web Design Clients? Pros and Cons

    Considering starting a podcast to help build your web design business and get clients?

    Podcasting is AMAZING for expanding your network, deepening your relationship with customers and building trust with potential clients but I'm not going to lie...it is hard work. And it's not for everyone.

    To make it work, you have to set yourself up for sustainability to do it consistently and in this special Q&A session, I'm answering many common questions from web designers who are interested in starting a podcast with the goal being to get clients and grow your business.

    I'm opening up about all the pros and cons of podcasting, the tough lessons I've learned and a clear roadmap of how to do it successfully.

    I'm also sharing an "alternative" method of podcasting that you can do as a trial or test run to see if podcasting is for you.

So much gold!

Josh has the best guests and they always seem to answer the question that I’ve been asking myself that week! Whether you’re a newbie web designer or been at it a while (like me) you’ll always hear something to help you on your part of the journey. I especially love hearing how others run their businesses as it helps me work out what I do and don’t want for my own business. Both Josh and the guests drop gold right until the end of each episode. I’ve just listened to ep. 323 and Kady’s wrap up is like, BOOM! Totally essential Tuesday listening - try one and I guarantee you’ll be listening back through them all!

Helped me move from Imposter to Expert in my sphere

This podcast changed my life. I was made redundant only 14 months into my new career as a website designer. I believed that I couldn’t possibly become a freelancer - I didn’t know enough yet. Josh’s podcast convinced me that I absolutely could go solo, I signed up for the full bundle of Josh’s courses which I’m still working through and now I have my business Web Prime Design and am loving being the expert in my clients sphere. Thank you Josh for showing me the way!

A Gold Dust resource

18 months ago, I was only vaguely aware of Wordpress. Fast forward to today, I’m killing Wordpress and Divi, enjoying a life changing side hustle and moving towards full time.

I have followed Josh religiously and binge listened every episode. I have learned SO MUCH from Josh about Wordpress and Divi and more recently, web design business skills.

The podcast has attracted stellar guests, but it’s worth following just for Josh’s knowledge, experience and insights, not to mention his inspirational presentation skills.

If you think the free stuff is good, check out his courses on his website at joshhall.co
