It’s June. Month six of twelve. Which means yes, it’s “mid-year check-in” season.
And while everyone else is shouting about how behind you are, I want to do something different.
I want you to slow down. Get honest. Actually check in. Not because you’re supposed to, but because you need to know if your podcast is doing its job.
In this episode of The More Profitable Podcast, we’re talking about what a real mid-year audit looks like, the signs that your content isn’t pulling its weight, and how to fix the gaps before you hit the busiest sales season of the year. I’m also sharing why summer is the best time to do this work and how one small mid-year adjustment turned into a repeatable, revenue-driving series I still use today.
If your podcast isn’t setting you up for Q4 success, it’s not going to fix itself. Let’s get your show back on track.
1:20 — Why it’s not just about your podcast and what else you should be checking
3:12 — The real reason I almost didn’t make this episode (and why I’m glad I did)
5:06 — What happens when you avoid a mid-year check-in
9:00 — Mid-year audits aren’t a pass/fail test (and what they actually are)
9:24 — Why summer is the best time to make changes
13:00 — How one mid-year tweak turned into one of my most downloaded series
14:20 — Quick signs your podcast needs a tune-up right now
19:00 — The key audit questions you need to be asking
20:30 — Why episodes aren’t enough — you need assets
21:42 — What we’re doing inside Profitable Podcast Summer Camp to fix this
22:29 — Why now’s the time to build a podcast that fuels your business
