Growth Triggers

I said it before, and I’ll repeat it. I am not original; however, I am a pretty good observer and good at identifying what works for a podcast. The secret that’s not so much of a mystery is the fact that marketing a podcast is like marketing a product. The same principles typically apply with just minor tweaks to fit the medium. However, today we're talking about two things that are too awesome podcasters are not using which I am positive will help you grow your show and increase your reach! This episode, will layout two things that I want you to try immediately. Also if you check out my Instagram you can see I’ve been doing a bit more of this as well. 😉 I won’t spoil these for you so make sure you listen to the episode.
