Why Podcast Hosts Should Never Write a Book | Michael DeLon
MORE FROM THIS EPISODE: HTTPS://PODMATCH.COM/EP/189Your podcast is your platform. But it shouldn't be your only platform. In this episode, Michael DeLon explains how podcasters can amplify their leadership position by creating a book without writing a word. You speak on your podcast and you should use the same process to create your book. As a thought leader, you need to stand out in the crowded podcasting space. Being an Amazon best-selling author of your own book is the fastest way to accomplish that. But doing it on your own takes a lot of time, effort, and know-how. Make the process as simple as possible by speaking your book, instead of writing it. It's the fastest, easiest, and most enjoyable way to become an author!MORE FROM THIS EPISODE: HTTPS://PODMATCH.COM/EP/189🎟️ UPCOMING EVENT: Podcasting Made Simple Live, our virtual event for podcast guests and hosts!
