Don't Try to do Everything

Podcasting, as you likely know by this point, is a TON of work. You need to launch, which is one project. But then you need to keep the show going. For every episode, you need to research, write/outline, record, edit, publish and promote. It's a TON of work, especially if you do it weekly. 

But what if you didn't have to do everything?

I'm a big fan of automating and delegating work, which is why I want to share two resources with you today. 

The first is a few ideas for automating tasks you might be doing manually . Scheduling, recording, and even repurposing can be done by websites and services! 

Then there's the article I wrote called  What Mowing the Lawn has to do with Your Podcast Losing Money .

It's all about spending your time wisely so you can focus on doing the things that grow your podcast and help you make money. If that means paying someone to edit, the cost is small compared to the amount of time you save.

I'd love to hear your thoughts. And let me know: what's your least favorite task when producing an episode?
