Every now and again, I get asked "how do you get guests?", "how do you find the time to do a podcast alongside a job?", "how do you monetise it", etc. Podcasting is becoming more and more popular. Lots of brands, public figures and companies are exploring podcasting as a method to grow their audience and business. When a friend said he was considering starting a podcast, it occurred to me that I could create a really useful resource for new starters. In this inbetweenisode, I divulge all.

In this episode, I cover: Why you need to think about the why How to get started in terms of niche, publishing frequency and equipment. Marketing strategies Monetisation Systems and outsourcing and much more At 10:15 I don't mean to equate Niche to Unique Selling Point (USP).

In this inbetweenisode, I share the power of checklists! Checklists are often overlooked due to their simplicity. However, with today's information overwhelm, it's never been a better time to create checklists for all of those repetitive tasks. This removes the need to remember all of the to-dos within a project and increases accuracy and effectiveness. In the podcast I forgot to mention how my buddy, Tom Church, first inspired me to use checklists. You can listen to my interview with Life Hacker and Latestdeals.co.uk co-founder, Tom Church, here. In this podcast, I talk about: Why checklists are super handy!
