    How to Build a Podcast That Actually Supports Your Business (#104)

    In order for your podcast to support your business, it's imperative you build your show on the foundation of a solid strategy designed for your specific needs.  Just starting a podcast because it seems like the trendy thing to do and not factoring in your time, goals, and true business needs puts you on course for results to take longer and potential burnout to rear its ugly head. But building goals designed to grow and scale your business, followed by determining the best way to utilize podcasting to achieve those goals, is a much better way to fly...and will ultimately set you up for better results while keeping you engaged in the creation process. In Episode 104 of Podcasting Strategy Simplified, I'm sharing what you need to do (and what you need to be thinking about) to build a podcast that supports your business. After taking in this episode, you'll understand: ✅ Why entrepreneurs and business leaders (like yourself) need to look at podcasting differently ✅ How to reverse engineer the traditional thought process and leverage podcasting more effectively ✅ Reasons you should implement podcast guesting into your initial podcasting strategy ✅ Why so many podcasts fade away after just a few episodes 🎟️ Get Your Ticket to The Empowered Podcasting Conference!

    What is the Authentic Definition of Podcasting Strategy? (#102)

    When it comes to success in podcasting, everything begins with strategy.  Inside your podcasting strategy, you'll find proper mindset, content pillars, short and long-term plans, well-defined expectations, a clear focus on what your ultimate goal is, and so much more. Trying to leverage podcasting for your business without a strategy is like trying to build a skyscraper on quicksand. Focus gets lost quickly, lack of clarity leads to burnout, and accomplishing your goals utilizing the podcast medium as your vehicle never becomes realistic. Today, I'm going to assign a true, authentic definition to the term "podcasting strategy." And while the definition I reveal may not be universally accepted, it 100% applies to the impact effective podcasting can have on the growth of your business. ⚠️ After consuming this episode, you'll understand: ✅ The lack of results you'll experience not leading with strategy first ✅ The importance of identifying gaps in your business and determining how podcasting can fill them ✅ Why you need to reverse engineer how you look at podcasting (and stop treating it like a means to podcasting fame) ✅ The only time massive download numbers truly matter  ✅ The true definition of podcasting strategy RESOURCE MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: SBMowing 🎟️ Get Your Ticket to The Empowered Podcasting Conference!

    Celebrating 100 Episodes & The Evolution of Empowered Podcasting w/ Marc Ronick and Rich Perry (#100)

    DID YOU KNOW: According to a quick Google search that produced a Reddit thread in the AI Overview, only 5-7% of podcasts actually make it to 100 episodes. Sad, but true. Trying to swing this statistic in the right direction is one of my core missions at Bombtrack Media, and today I'm actively contributing to the cause. Podcasting Strategy Simplified has officially hit 100 episodes. Most of those episodes came under the show's former name (Let's Blow This Up), but here we are. To me, 100 episodes is just the beginning. As you'll hear me say a few times throughout today's show, "the party has only just begun!" But I'm also a firm believer in celebrating all the milestones you hit in your podcasting journey, so to ring in triple digits, I invited my friends and business partners at Empowered Podcasting, Marc Ronick and Rich Perry, onto the show to talk about the commitment required to hit triple digits on your podcast, the evolution of Empowered Podcasting, not twisting and overthinking the words of the "gurus," and plenty more. Join us for this episode from front to back and you'll walk away with: ✅ Tips to make it to 100 episodes on YOUR podcast ✅ A look behind the scenes at the evolution of Empowered Podcasting (and the planning of this year's Empowered Podcasting Conference happening August 21st thru 23rd in Charlotte, NC) ✅ More reasons why you should be attending this year's Empowered Podcasting Conference (see the link below to grab your ticket AND save 20%) ✅ An understanding of why we, as podcasters, sometimes twist the words of the gurus and "over-offer" our products and services From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU for being on this journey with me and listening to Podcasting Strategy Simplified!  🎟️ Get Your Ticket to The Empowered Podcasting Conference!
