Your show’s mission statement is more than just some words on a page. It should determine the direction of your show, the format, who you’re talking to, and ultimately how it will make money. Much like a map (well, Google Maps) when you’re going to a new destination, your mission statement will guide your podcast…

One of the best ways you can grow your podcast is with a newsletter. Make your CTA “join the mailing list,” and now you have information about your listeners that you previously didn’t! Plus they are more likely to see and share new content.

The Opal C1 WebCam is out and it’s claiming to be the first DSLR-quality webcam. At $300, that’s a tall order. Let’s see how it measures up!
I like to think about podcast growth as traveling cross country. You could technically do it for free — pretty much. You can walk, find free public transportation, or hitch the occasional ride. But it will take a long time, and you’re not in control of your time. If you want to get there faster, invest in a bike or a car. Or better yet, a plane ticket.

Not too long ago, recording a podcast and getting good, quality audio that was easy to edit was a dream. But today, there are great tools to do it, whether you’re doing a solo show or recording with other people.
Recently on Twitter, I asked a series of questions about podcasting, the challenges, and what would make it easier. The conclusion I came to based on the answers was consistency is the biggest pitfall for podcasters (or would-be podcasters).
As someone who puts out 3 weekly shows, I totally get that. Podcasting can be a grind, which is why 75% of shows don’t make it past 7 episodes. So this week, I decided to put together some of my best tips to avoid the dreaded podfade and be consistent.

Plus, we’ll answer: is the Tonor TC-777 the best mic in its price range?
In Episode 2, I talked to you about having one, clear, call to action for your podcast. There, I recommend your CTA should be to join the mailing list. This will allow you to capture your audience to directly communicate with them. From there, you can further promote sponsors, sell products, or provide more benefits for your membership (along with providing real value, of course).
But you still need a good place for the mailing list sign-up form to live. There’s no way to add a form in Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or any podcast app.
No – You need a good landing page.
