From Passion to Paycheck: How One Fangirl Landed Her Dream Podcast Gig | with Jordan Blair (Producer/Co-Host, Buzzcast) | Ep 83
ONE simple tip in this episode resulted in THOUSANDS more podcast downloads... and Jordan Blair is BACK on the podcast to tell you all about it and MORE! The last time you heard from Jordan on my podcast was back in February of 2022... a whole YEAR AGO OMG. It was episode 33, and we talked about Jordan's incredible podcasting journey with her Dreamful Bedtime Stories podcast. Well, a LOT has transpired in Jordan's podcasting journey over the past year, including being HIRED by Buzzsprout as Producer and Co-Host of Buzzcast, their flagship podcast (& Jordan's fangirl obsession).
In this episode, we discuss things like: exactly how she landed her dream job at Buzzsprout, along with the perks (& challenges) of her new role as Producer and Co-Host of Buzzcast; how you can apply to get FREE monthly hosting through Buzzsprout AND a free ticket to the podcast conference of your choice annually; the ONE simple tip that increased Buzzsprout’s Buzzcast downloads by thousands... and how you can do the same to increase discoverability and audience retention; podcast monetization trends to look out for in 2023, including Jordan's own (new) challenges with brands who are interested in sponsoring Dreamful; and so much more!
ABOUT JORDAN BLAIR:
Jordan started her podcast Dreamful Bedtime Stories in 2019, after she simply couldn’t find what she was looking for in the podcast directories. Within just ONE year, Dreamful climbed to the top 1% of ALL podcasts in download numbers, Jordan was able to quit her TWO part-time jobs to go full-time in podcasting, and she became (among many other achievements) a Buzzsprout Creator and a moderator of the Buzzsprout Community Group on Facebook, where she can still be found offering advice to help 33k+ other podcasters. In the spring of 2022, Jordan joined Buzzsprout as Producer and Co-Host of their flagship podcast, Buzzcast. Find Jordan on Twitter here: https://twitter.com/JordanPods
