Podcast Coaching for Kingdom Entrepreneurs with Kristin Fields Chadwick: Faith Based Podcasting Tips and Podcast Launch and Growth Strategies

Recording your podcast is a huge accomplishment, but now it’s time to release your content. You might be feeling overwhelmed by the numerous platforms and unsure about what to do next. Don’t worry, today Kristin is here to walk you through Step 5 of your podcast journey: choosing a hosting platform.

Once you've finished recording your podcast episode, you need a place to store your audio files and distribute them to various podcast directories like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts. This is where a hosting platform comes in.

Few key points from today’s episode:

• Paying for a professional hosting platform truly protects your audio. Free platforms might seem tempting, but they often come with hidden costs, such as limited control over your content or less reliable service.
• A good hosting platform offers robust security features to keep your audio files safe. This means that your content remains under your control and is distributed according to your preferences.
• Understanding your audience is key to growing your podcast. Be sure to sure a hosting platform that offers dynamic analytics.
• One highly recommended hosting platform is Libsyn. It’s a popular choice among podcasters

Choosing the right hosting platform is a crucial step that will influence the reach and success of your podcast. Platforms like Libsyn offer a secure, reliable, and insightful way to manage and broadcast your episodes.

With Kristin's guidance, you're now better equipped to make an informed decision and take the next step in your podcasting journey!

You've heard that to be successful, you need to know your why. Today, Kristin is pigging backing off Episode 40 of Wholistic Podcasting. Kristin uncovers how knowing your why will propel you into action and help you create the plans to achieve it.

Your podcast's center, foundation, and core lie within your why for both new and seasoned podcasters. It's the driving force behind why you continue to get behind the mic each time you record.

Kristin takes listeners through the ways to find your why, from uncovering your values to diving deep into what's important to you, how you want to service your listeners, and what type of legacy you wish to leave behind.

Uncovering your why can often feel overwhelming, but Kristin reminds listeners of its nature as a journey of curiosity. It's supposed to be light while giving tremendous clarity.

If you need help finding your why contact Kristin for a free coaching session.
