Psst … make sure you listen to the end … I’ll break down this episode to give you 3 small steps you can execute right now to help you take this listening experience into execution experience. Enjoy the show. 

After you listen to this episode I would love you to do 3 small steps that will help you make money from your podcast: 

1. I spoke about this on the last podcast. BUt it is valuable here too, so if you listened and haven’t done it … here is your sign to do it … so here it is. If all your previous guests asked you this one question, are you prepared with an answer? “What is the 1 thing I can help you with to grow your business?” - spend 20 minutes thinking about that and write down 3-4 things you could say the next time someone asks you this.
2. Think about the guests you’ve already interviewed. And categorise them. Can some of them help you with being seen more because they have an audience? Can someone help you with being seen as more credible because their brand is a valuable one? Some could bring more clients, more partners, and more content. Group them.
3. Think about 3 high profile people you would like to have a conversation with in the next year. And, who are the people you would have to interview before asking them to be on your podcast? Spend 20 minutes on this. 

These are 3 small steps that if you execute, irrespective of where you are at in your business and podcasting journey will make a huge impact on your making your podcast more profitable & more impactful.
