140: Ignore the False Claims: Here’s How to Actually Grow Your Podcast
You know what you can always expect from me? The truth! So, I’m going to get a little spicy and controversial in this episode, but know that it’s coming from a place of caring because I don’t want to see you taken advantage of. I’m on my soapbox to tell you that the exaggerated, and even false, claims about podcast growth in the online marketing world have to stop. It’s so misleading and all it does is waste people’s time and money and leave them feeling defeated.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing why I’m so sick of seeing these false podcast growth claims online, what will actually grow your podcast, and why it’s so important to know the purpose of your podcast as it relates to your business. But what I mainly want you to know is that podcast growth takes time and these magic beans solutions people are selling are not the answer.
