Five podcasting myths that are preventing your podcast's success

You know that feeling you get when you’ve poured your heart into your podcast for months, only to see the kind of download numbers you could count on one hand? If that’s you, I want you to know you’re definitely not alone. The sheer number of podcasters who reach out to me, stuck in this exact scenario, is far higher than you’d probably guess. But here’s the kicker: it rarely comes down to a lack of effort or even a lack of content. More often, the problem is rooted in five persistent myths that quietly steer podcasters straight into a rut. Myths I see crop up almost every time I run an audit for someone serious about improving their reach. If you’re at the point where you’re open to a bit of tough love, this episode will give you a chance to step off the hamster wheel, take a proper look at what's holding your show back, and finally start seeing the kind of traction you actually deserve.Book your podcast audit nowhttps://podmastery.co/liteTimestamped summary00:00 Guest Dependency Issues in Podcasts04:00 Downloads Don't Equal Engagement09:41 Podcast Monetization Myths DebunkedMentioned in this episode:Book your Podmaster auditWanna get unstuck from the sub 100 downloads per month doldrums.

Om Podcasten

Are you a brand or individual who's looking to improve and grow your podcast? You're in the right place. Together, we'll help you attain 'podmastery'. Podcasting is such a complex medium, with so many factors that can impact your success. It's my goal to cover all these topics with you, and help you maximise the results you're getting from your efforts. My name is Neal Veglio and I've been in the podcasting game since 2001, when I became the first person in the UK to upload audio of my then radio show online, and generate an audience. This audience followed me throughout my radio career and engaged with my various other podcasts. But it wasn't always easy. And when I took a career break from radio for a few years in 2007, I had to learn how to build audience without the lift of an FM frequency. I learned a lot from that experience. I now help other podcasters to achieve their goals through my company Podknows Podcasting. Each episode, I'll be offering you some insights into what I've done and what I've helped my clients do with our podcasts in the hope we can help YOU increase your podcast's chances of becoming more successful! And ensuring you can avoid the dreaded 'podfade'!This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podder - https://www.podderapp.com/privacy-policy
