Send us a text letting us know your thoughts on today's episode

Everyone wants to talk about microphones. You want to talk about what actually works.

If you're in your first 30 days of podcasting (or about to launch), this episode is going to save you from the biggest mistake new podcasters make: obsessing over the wrong things.

The truth? Your download numbers in month one tell you almost nothing. And your microphone? It’s not the thing that's going to grow your show.

In this episode, I break down the three things that actually matter in your first 30 days of podcasting, plus the three things you can officially stop stressing about. You'll walk away knowing exactly where to put your energy so your podcast builds momentum from the start and doesn't just become another abandoned show in your feed.

You'll learn:

• Why download numbers in month one are the wrong metric to focus on
• The 3 things that actually matter (and it's not what most people tell you)
• What a "listener journey" is and why skipping it is the #1 reason podcasts don't lead to business results
• The mic I still use today (and yes, it's under $100)

If you want a podcast that actually connects to your business goals from day one, this one's for you.
