Unveiling the Secrets: Insider Access to My Podcast Rebrand Promotion Strategies | with Lauren Passell (Founder, Tink Media) | Ep 100

Just because you build it does not mean they will come, which is why active marketing and promotion needs to be a crucial component to your podcast strategy. In this episode with podcast publicist Lauren Passell, we not only uncover her top strategies for attracting new listeners at your initial podcast launch and on an ongoing basis, but we also dissect the exact strategies used to promote the rebrand of Podfluencer Society. Tune in to hear what strategies are working (and not working) for Lauren's clients; how I stayed organized while working through a rebrand checklist of nearly 400 line items leading into my rebrand announcement; the major mistake I made when submitting to be featured by the major listening directories; the surprising marketing tactic that yielded the best immediate results (and that I almost didn't do); and so much more!
