For years I've told people THE BEST ratio I've ever achieved is 4 TO 1 when it comes to making a podcast episode. In other words, a 15-minute podcast will take an hour.

Learn How You Can Help Others by Sharing Your Abilities with Glenn Hebert
2 RecommendationsToday we look at how two entertainment icons had MORE success AFTER they quit trying to be something they weren't and decided to be themselves.
Glenn Hebert runs the Horse Radio Network. When he started his podcast he had 12 downloads. He didn't quit, and 2800 episodes later he shares some powerful feedback from his audience. Glenn had no idea he would have this effect on people, and you can do the same thing.
Let me help you start a podcast.
