In this episode, Mandi talks with Jeremy Weisz, co-founder of Rise 25, about how service firm owners can use podcasting as a powerful tool to build authority, deepen relationships, and consistently attract high-value clients without spending a cent on ads.
Jeremy shares how he’s helped hundreds of agencies and consultants create “relationship engines” through podcasting systems that generate partnerships, referrals, and long-term opportunities that most firms completely overlook.
Instead of chasing leads, Jeremy reveals how to build genuine authority by leading meaningful conversations and why your network, not your audience size, determines your growth.
🔍 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
- How to turn a podcast into a lead-generation and authority-building system
- The Rise25 framework for turning guest conversations into client opportunities
- Why the best podcasts focus on relationships, not downloads
- How to position your show so dream clients are excited to join
- The mindset shift from “creating content” to creating connection
- How to stay consistent without adding more to your workload
- Why generosity and curiosity are your biggest growth levers
The best agencies don’t chase clients, they attract them by becoming the trusted authority in their space. When you use podcasting to connect, elevate, and lead with insight, your business grows on the strength of relationships that last.
