You’ve niched down (at least, you think you have). You’ve defined your ideal listener, picked a category, maybe even reworked your show description and cover art (twice). But deep down, you’re wondering… have I niched down too far? Or not far enough?
In this Fix My Pod session, I help Anthony uncover the subtle red flags that were keeping listeners from hitting play on his content, and show you how to spot (and fix) the same signs in your own podcast so it’s impossible for your dream listeners to scroll past.
So if you’ve ever wondered whether your podcast is “specific enough” to stand out (and secretly worried that it’s not), hit play and let’s dive in.
