Launch Your Podcast Successfully in 2024

No, my Podcasting Bootcamp is designed for beginners. We start from the basics and guide you through the entire process of launching your podcast. You don't need any prior experience or special technical skills.

You should be comfortable speaking! Which I hope you already know since you want to podcast.

You should also be comfortable setting up a website and basic technical setup.

It's a 10 week program with group sessions and office hours style Q&A sessions.

Each week, we'll meet, and I'll teach a topic or two, and then you can ask questions.

You can technically launch a podcast for free! But I don't recommend that for most people.

You can get started for about $100 - $150.

Audio is critically important, but you can get a GREAT mic for under $75. It'll sound like a studio recording.

You'll need podcast hosting, but many companies have a free tier that will be okay to get started.

The free tiers typically have limited bandwidth, but it's absolutely sufficient. Then you can upgrade and get the additional features later.

I'm here to support you. You'll have access to our community of would-be podcasters where you can ask questions and share experiences. 

You all have special skills and networks, so you all should be as valuable as my expert knowledge in podcasting.

My main reasons:

• A podcast will build trust with your potential customers or partners if you sell something. So if you're an agency owner, SAAS founder, freelancer, blogger, etc.., podcasting will change your business and improve your authority in your niche.
• It's 100% independent. You don't have to worry about Google Algorithm updates or social media algorithms.
• Unbelievable networking opportunities: Hosting a podcast can open doors to networking with experts, influencers, and other professionals in your field.

I also asked ChatGPT...

8. Creative Outlet: Podcasting can be a creative outlet, allowing you to explore different formats, topics, and styles.

Even if you can’t start on Jan 15th, you can still come along for the ride.

You might miss some of the live meetings, but they will be recorded.

So, if you’re thinking about launching a show in the first half of 2024, you should consider the bootcamp.

That's okay! Not every topic will be relevant to you. 

So, just double down on the topics that matter to you.

Some people just want to share knowledge and don't want to earn any money from their podcast.

Some people want to sell online courses.

You should still gain insights about the industry from the topics we will cover. So you might get some good ideas anyway.

Trust me. I was a bumbling, nervous fool in the beginning.

I didn't know my ass from the foamy end of the microphone.

And now, I'm not nervous and don't bumble much at all. :) 

While learning and getting better was uncomfortable, it's been life-changing.

When you get out of your comfort zone, you'll start to get better and grow.
