  • Why I Stopped Measuring Podcast Success Based on Downloads
    Jul 17 2024

    Ever feel like you need to have the best audio, the best voice, the best everything to succeed in podcasting? In this episode, we’re challenging industry norms and showing you a new way to measure your podcast’s success.

    The industry relies heavily on metrics like downloads, reviews, and rankings to gauge success, but these can be misleading because not all podcasts are created equal. But by changing the types of goals you set and the way you measure your progress, you’ll be able to make continuous improvements, stay motivated, and create content that stays true to your vision and values.

    If you're ready to stop comparing your podcast to others and start seeing actual podcast growth, hit play and let's dive in.
