Do you wish you could optimize and scale your podcast processes so that when you're looking at your show, you actually feel excited to hit record, publish, and talk to your guests, rather than feeling overwhelmed? As podcast hosts, we have so much to think about, and sometimes, we don't have the time to think strategically about our show, and determine which actions will drive us forward or hold us back.

In this podcast episode, I'm thrilled to recount my experience working with my Podcast Power Hour Retainer client Fanny Dunagan, a LinkedIn content strategist for people in tech through her company, Pathlinks. Even though Fanny is an experienced content creator, her struggles and successes are shared by less experienced podcasters so if you’re still in the early months of your podcast journey, take a listen.

What will help you move the needle on your podcast in the most effective way? How can you create a podcast that stays relevant, helps you achieve your goals, and serves your audience? This episode will dive into exactly that.

When you're creating a podcast, remember that conditions don’t need to be perfect to create value. Consistency is key. Your listeners value reliability; they appreciate knowing when to expect new episodes and what kind of value they will get. Focus on the content and its value to your audience over perfect conditions or settings. This thought process will help keep your podcast relevant and build a loyal audience.
