When you open up Spotify or another preferred podcast app, what do you see?

As a podcast host, you really want your show to stand out on these apps. But listeners have so many choices, even if they narrow things down with a search for a specific subject (unless it’s really, really niche). And the options can blend together.

So how do you make sure your show doesn’t disappear in the crowd and get passed over? It starts with the first thing everyone sees: the cover art and description.

In this episode of The More Profitable Podcast, you’ll learn about how to craft your show’s description and cover art so that it grabs the attention of those you want to find it. I’ll reveal how to update these podcast elements so that your show can reach the goals you desire.
