If you’re looking for an issue, you will most likely find it. This is called a self-fulfilling prophecy, and we all do it. We look for what is wrong, or what can go wrong, in hopes of protecting ourselves, but what ends up happening is the opposite. This is something many podcasters face when being presented with tips and tools to help grow their show. Some podcasters believe that there are strategies that may not help them because of the nature of their show. Well, we can tell you one thing, they are guaranteed to fail with that strategy, not because it won’t work for them, but because the mindset they are going into it with is setting them up for failure. This is a common theme, and our host Kevin Chemidlin, wants to address it, and let you know that some of our strategies you think don’t fit your business model or lack of, think again. There is more to the story, so listen in to today’s episode to find out how to use our growth strategies for your podcast, even if it doesn’t seem logical. Tune in to hear this and more!
