- Technology
As podcasters, it is easy to get caught up in using downloads as our metric for success. However, podcast download numbers are elusive and never totally satisfying. It is a data point that has a metric for success that is always moving and leaves us feeling dissatisfied. Chasing downloads can even make us forget why we created our podcast in the first place.
Here are a few of our personal metrics for success:
Improve our speech so that we naturally remove filler words (so, like, um, you know....)Reach out to "dream guests"Say Heck Yes! to opportunities that come our way from podcastingBecome better interviewers to help facilitate and encourage our guests to share their knowledge and their stories
