The good news is, you can avoid the most common mistakes that lead to frustration and burnout. When you know where podcasters often go wrong, you can create a show that grows steadily, brings in the right listeners, and actually helps you reach your business goals.
In this episode, I’m sharing the top three mistakes podcasters make and how to foolproof your show from day one. We’ll talk about why podcast SEO is your best friend, why relying on sponsorships alone won’t get you far, and why becoming “too inspirational” with endless interviews can actually hurt your podcast growth.
You’ll also learn how to create a solid foundation for your show that makes it searchable, monetizable, and aligned with your offers. By focusing on the right strategy instead of chasing shiny new trends, you’ll finally have a podcast that works for you instead of feeling like extra work.
