Use Chartable to find your Apple Podcast Chart’s Rank
Use Chartable to find your Apple Podcast Chart’s Rank When it comes to finding your show on Apple Podcasts, use Chartable to find your Apple Podcast Charts ranking. Without a doubt, Chartable is a superior resource than the Apple Podcast App. First of all, the Apple Podcast Charts aren’t easy to find within the app. You may have to do some digging.

Why Podcast Content Matters
Podcast Content is More Important than Podcast Sales People don’t buy products from podcasters. People accept advice from podcasters they know, like, and trust. As a result, the single most important thing that you can do for your podcast is to position yourself as the podcast host (or podcast GUIDE…but more on this later). The second most important thing you can do for your podcast is to create a podcast content strategy that is bigger than yourself. Ask yourself: what actually grabs my attention? What keeps me engaged? And: what is a mission that I can tackle each and every week for years to come? If you start to understand…

On Being a New Podcaster
How Being a New Podcaster Primes you for a Book It’s worth mentioning that as a new podcaster, when you deliver a podcast on a weekly basis it will begin to do many things. (a) It will help you build an audience. (b) It will help you nurture an audience. And (c) It will help create value and trust. Finally, then there’s (d): once “a” through “c” are in place, it will position you to sell to that audience, especially if the item being sold is a book or a course. So what does this mean for you? If writing a book is your ambition, then a podcast is a…
