Digital Creator

There’s not many people who can say they’ve been podcasting for 16 years. Today's guest is Marc Ronick, who is a podcasting expert. Marc helps podcasters launch and grow successful podcasts. Today, Marc shares his wisdom with us about podcasting, what he would like to see more of, and what he would like to see less of. There's no other guest I'd rather have to celebrate episode 100 of Digital Podcaster with. Please enjoy this conversation with Marc!

Feel like you're constantly consuming content but struggling to create your own? In this short but powerful episode, Dylan explores the sneaky ways that excessive content consumption can undermine your creative confidence and productivity.

You'll discover:

• The warning signs that you're consuming too much content
• Why "research" and "staying informed" might actually be sabotaging your creative voice
• How comparison disguised as inspiration can make you second-guess yourself
• A simple approach to regain your creative momentum when you feel stuck

Whether you're a content creator or just someone trying to find balance in a world of infinite scrolling, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on giving your ideas the space they need to flourish. Learn why sometimes the best way to improve your output isn't more input – it's creating space for your own voice to emerge.

Most podcasters hit plateaus in growth because their strategy isn’t aligned with their primary objective. Let’s talk about it.

Step 1: Clarify the primary goal

Step 2: Develop a strategy

Step 3: Don’t get distracted

Coaching questions from this episode:

1. What's your ultimate podcasting objective?
2. How does your current content align with this goal?
3. What metrics would indicate success for your primary goal?
4. How can you refine your strategy to better serve your main objective?
5. Are there any secondary goals distracting you from your primary focus?
6. What's one immediate change you can make to align with your primary goal?
7. How will you measure progress towards your podcast's main objective?

Getting great guests for your podcast is the difference between launching and failing. If you can get guests or experts on your show that you vibe with, you'll be well on your way to success.

But how do you go about getting these types of guests? It's not as difficult as you might think. In this episode, Dylan is breaking down the process he uses for himself and clients to get awesome podcast guests that help grow their show.

Listen to this if you're ready to take your podcast to the next level!

In the episode you'll hear:

• The simplest way to find guests.
• How to organize your guest list so you know where to focus.
• Ways to stand out when reaching out to guests that will get you a response.
• What to do to ensure an easy “yes” happens when asking a potential podcast guest to come on your show.
• How you can maximize your time, your guests time and save yourself money in the process.

Welcome to Digital Podcaster with Dylan Schmidt.

Today I'm talking about lessons I've learned from breaking the same rib multiple times. I'm a jiu jitsu practitioner...for those who don't know what jiu jitsu is, it's a martial art.

About 10 months ago I broke a rib while training, and every few months instead of healing I kept re-injuring myself. Well, I'm back to normal, and I thought I'd share some lessons I've learned in the past year.

These same lessons you can take and apply to your podcast, business, content, really anywhere where you're trying to get to the next level.

Setbacks can be frustrating, especially if you are just starting out. You're trying to get your podcast up and running, but every time you prepare to launch something happens that forces you back into re-doing everything.

It can be very frustrating.

But there is a lesson to be found in the setbacks...and that's what I'm sharing with you today.

Take a listen and enjoy!
