Should You Start a Podcast?

Are you truly ready to jump in the deep end of the pool and launch a podcast that will help stimulate the growth of your brand?
The answer should be yes. BUT, if you want your podcast to succeed and not be like one of those shows that flatlines before you even have a chance to subscribe, it's important to build a solid foundation on which your podcast can grow for years.
In the world premiere installment of Pod Theory, I analyze the question of whether you should start a podcast and what you need to know in order to do so with confidence and purpose.

Why Do So Many Podcasts Fail?

There are many, many podcasts out there right now that never made it to first base. They may be sitting there with one published episode...or, possibly NO published episodes. Some podcasts come out strong for the first few months, then consistency falls off a cliff and, eventually, new episodes vanish completely.
There are a lot of reasons why podcasts fail to gain any momentum, and on Episode 5 of Pod Theory, I'm going to dive into why and YOU'RE INVITED to hear all about it.
The idea is to not fall into the failure category and take the necessary steps to ensure your podcast succeeds. And that starts with planning. Stop and listen - more details inside.
