3 Things to Do Before Launching Your Podcast

Hi all! My latest episode actually went up last week, but due to the election, it didn’t feel quite right to promote it. So here it is: 3 Things to Do Before Launching Your Podcast.

After my conversation with Jesse Cannon, who I work with on more podcasts than I think either of us can count, I realized I really want to dive into the pre-launch and pre-production phases of podcast creation.

Marketing is 1000% important and something you can do during both of these phases, but I get a lot of questions about recording platforms, distribution hosts, podcast trailers, and a plethora of other things that fall into both of those stages.

Plus, people like Jeremy Enns and everyone over at Tink Media already do a much better job than I ever could at discussing marketing your show. That’s not to say I never will, but I highly recommend checking them out if that’s what you want to focus on!

Next week I’ll be talking to my friend Mike Comite about mixing. He works on This American Life and I’m constantly in awe of the work he does.

If there’s any aspect of podcasting that you’d love to know more about, hit reply and let me know!
