Episode Transcript

(00:00):
The other question that I was thinking about is why would you outsource your

(00:11):
tasks, your podcast or your podcast tasks?
So, Oh, that's fantastic.
I'm so glad you brought that one up.
I felt like it fit our conversation really well because it feels it's the thing when
you're dealing with potential podcasts or burnout or you're looking for success in the
new year.

(00:32):
I think what's great about outsourcing your podcast tasks, I don't know why I can't say
podcast at the moment.
Podcast tasks.
I think what's great about it is that first of all, when your time is the most valuable
asset that you have in this world, it is the number one thing that you cannot get back

(00:54):
is your time.
And so what price do you put on that?
And when you can outsource those tasks that are mundane so that you can focus on things
that you're most passionate about that feed your soul, that's what you should be doing.
And if you outsource things like your audio editing, your show notes, your copywriting,

(01:19):
your marketing, even your monetization, these are things that can help you succeed because
you're working with experts who know that field very well.
And then on top of that, if you worked with someone like Brave Moon Podcast, for instance,
you would be creating a level of accountability there because I actually am not just, I don't

(01:42):
just become your podcast project manager.
I actually become your biggest cheerleader.
I make sure that you're staying with it and that you're excited about it and that you
keep on going with your podcast.
So I think that that is, I think that's why everyone should outsource podcasts.
Okay.
So the question's totally going to come up and so I'm going to go ahead and ask what

(02:04):
a listener is going to ask.
Yes.
It's so expensive though.
How can you justify, I mean, I know you're saying, and I agree with you, I agree completely
that your time is your most valuable asset.
How do you speak to the person who's listening to this going, but I'm just a hobby podcaster.
I can't afford to outsource.
Yes.
They're actually podcast outsourcing is actually very reasonable when you really think

(02:29):
about it, when you drill it down.
It's actually more reasonable than you're expecting in your mind about what you're
thinking.
I have multiple podcasters that have reached out to me that are, it's just a hobby and
they have wanted to do this so that they can focus on their passion and keep it going.
And what happens when you keep it going is then you're able to start monetizing your

(02:53):
podcast.
And so that investment that you made at the beginning is actually going to be very small
compared to potentially how much you'll be making in the future when you continue your
podcast and keep it going.
