The first step to growing any podcast is creating what @jayacunzo calls a "Growable Show". But how do you know when you've found it? In my experience, it's when you start getting messages like these on a regular basis.

Nice to wake up to the next mini-milestone for Podcast Marketing Trends Explained. Thanks to everyone who's listened and shared the show so far (except that one jerk from Canada who left a 1-star rating) 😑

This growth rate from @ChartableDotCom is weirdly specific... Also, strange that we have more reviews than ratings?

Definitely a vanity achievement... But it's pretty cool to see @mijustin & my new show Podcast Marketing Trends Explained near the top of Marketing charts all over the world. #27 🇺🇸 #15 🇨🇦 #15 🇬🇧 Along with a dozen or so others. Best of all? Reaching #4 in 🇺🇿 (Uzbekistan)

One of the hardest things about podcast marketing is this: There’s no one-size-fits-all approach. Cut and paste the tactics that are wildly effective for someone else onto your show, product, or business and they rarely get anywhere close to the same results. If you’ve ever

Just hit a big newsletter milestone. Going into 2023, my goal was to hit 10k by the end of the year. To be honest, I thought it was a bit of a long shot. But then I joined both @SparkLoopHQ & the @ConvertKit Creator Network... So I guess I'm shooting for 20k by EOY now?

Quick Podcast Tip #299 If you can't explain every step of your growth strategy in granular detail... you don't have a strategy. For every marketing activity, define: 🎯 The intended result ✅ The action to achieve it 🤔 Why it will work Otherwise, you're operating on hope.

The time between delivering a podcast audit & waiting for a response is always nerve-wracking. I make a point to deliver audits w/ kindness & empathy... But I also make a point not to pull any punches and call out all the issues that are keeping the show from growth. Somet

Quick Podcast Tip #298 The 80/20 rule of growing a podcast: 1. Create a show that aligns with existing audience demand... 2. In an original & compelling way. Too many creators & teams try to skip one or both of these steps... and then wonder why marketing is so hard.

Question for the data-driven podcasters out there: If you track any of the following, what are your rough metrics for: 📈 Listener → Paid client/customer conversion rate 📈 Listener → email subscriber conversion rate 📈 Average listener value 📈 Listener acquisition cost 📈

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 31/05/2023

Instead of using your podcast intros to tell your listeners why they should keep listening, cut the preamble and show them. Good intros aren't just a table of contents. They hook listeners, then set the stakes in a way that makes them feel invested.

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 30/05/2023

Think of each episode as a landing page. Its job is to sell to your listeners that you're worth engaging with further. This means: ✍️ Speaking to their pain points & desires ✍️ Showcasing your credibility ✍️ Offering them a compelling path forward

Quick Podcast Tip #297 Whether it's interviewing, production, or marketing... Most things that appear effortless from the outside are the result of years of focused effort, training, and meticulous preparation. Don't mistake the appearance of ease for "easy to create".

Quick Podcast Tip #296 Everyone talks about the value of consistency. But one of the best things you can do for your show is to take a break. It might be a week, a month, or even a year. Often, space and perspective is exactly what’s required to unlock future growth.

Quick Podcast Tip #295 Momentum kicks in when everyone in a niche is aware of your show. 2 ways to get there: 1. Pick a large niche – Best if you have unlimited budget & patience. 2. Pick a narrow niche – Best if you want to quickly gain traction & get results. Your choice.

Quick Podcast Tip #294: When struggling to grow, most people think they have an exposure problem. But 9/10 times, the real problem is: 🚫 Poor positioning 🚫 Poor messaging 🚫 Lack of a compelling show hook Without fixing these 3 problems, no amount of exposure can help you.

In the past week, I've had convos w/ 4 different creators who've all said the same thing: "It took me 7 years to find my voice, my offer & the people I can best help but now that it's locked in I'm feeling the momentum." Don't forget: There's no shortcut to this work.

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 19/05/2023

Growth hacks, tools, and tactics are the gravy of marketing. The main course? Getting uncomfortably specific about who & what your show is for & then communicating that w/ absolute clarity. As always, gravy without substance is kind of gross.

Quick Podcast Tip #293 For most people, the outcome of a successful podcast is building a business. You'll have more success if you approach it that way from the start. Know your biz model, build an MVP & then obsess over podcast-market fit before worrying about anything else.

Another batch of new @PodGrowthSchool welcome calls today & I'm really digging the level of marketing experience many of the new members have. Many have been creating online for 8+ years. Which means the marketing conversations have been specific, technical, & super fun 🤓🤓🤓

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 17/05/2023

Different mediums have different strengths. Podcasting, while a fantastic tool for resonance, is a poor tool for reach. Which means if you want reach, you need to look elsewhere. Play to each platform's strengths & watch your marketing improve.

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 13/05/2023

I'm always surprised by how many podcasters I talk to that don't listen to podcasts themselves. Are there other mediums where this happens? I feel like aspiring creators in other mediums obsess over studying and learning the craft way more than in podcasting. Thoughts?

Jeremy Enns @jeremyenns.bsky.social · 11/05/2023

One of the coolest trends I've noticed in the new @PodGrowthSchool members who've signed up this week. Many are producing shows that are, at their core, about finding joy, belonging, and unity within their respective niches. Podcasters might just save the world 💪

When it comes to podcast growth, everyone thinks they have a tactic problem. That if they could *just* find the right tactic their show would take off immediatly. What they don't realize is they probably already have the right tactic. But they're missing something else... 🧵

We know junk food is bad for us. But how often do we think about its marketing equivalent? We're tempted by tactics promising a quick, cheap win, only to leave us worse off in the long run. More often than not, it's the boring, consistent approach that gets results.
