Hosting a podcast for your business isn’t just about getting content out there in hopes an ideal potential client will discover it - it’s about using your voice, expressing your perspective, and becoming well-known enough in your niche that you start to get invited onto other people’s stages. This might mean conferences, corporate events, others’ podcasts, or online summits or webinars. These appearances elevate your authority &...

Examine the advice given on episode 4 of this show by Anthony Weaver of About That Wallet: 

Create pre-recorded elements for your show

 

Even today, in July of 2025, this advice stands reliable. When listeners hear a familiar set of words, cadence, music, and message, they subconsciously develop trust for you and your show. Plus, pre-recorded podcast intros, outros, and commercials for your episodes make your life easier as the hos...

By publishing a well-written, professionally edited book that helps your current or potential clients, your authority and notoriety are automatically elevated in your niche.

Your email welcome sequence is like the Swiss Army knife of digital marketing- versatile, effective, and 100% automated once it’s set up. In fact, having an active email subscriber platform and nurture sequence is KEY for business owners with a podcast.

Jennifer Loehding shares openly about her 5+ year journey of starting a podcast as a passion project, realizing she needed some products or courses for people to buy, nearly burning out from 1:1 coaching, creating an ultra-high-ticket course without anything to warm up her audience, to starting a second show, putting her first show on hold, build...
