Quotes
• “Personal brands should have podcasts because it’s one of the easiest ways to grow your brand, grow your network. It’s got the least friction. It’s got the least amount of saturation.” (9:05-9:17)
• “The very first thing that podcasters should do is look at their format and their concept. The concept is the idea. What do you actually want to do? What is the goal of this show?” (15:38-16:05)
• “If you’re gonna do it, batch 5 to 8 weeks before you launch. A little bit of extra time upfront will save you a world of time later on. Just be smart with your time.” (37:15-38:00)
• “Make sure that you have enough runway to be able to if busy life comes up or you get sick or something happens. Consistency is very important. If you drop out or you go away for a month, bear in mind that podcasts are, we’re habitual creatures. If your show doesn’t turn up that week, they’ll go and look for another show and if that show is better than yours, they won’t come back.” (39:21-40:06)
• “It only comes by you actually going after it and doing it.” (45:12-45:16)
