Each time I get on a sales call with someone who found me through my podcast, the conversation always goes the same way. They tell me they knew just from listening to my podcast that they want to work with me. Sometimes they even quote specific things I’ve said in episodes. What I love most is that they are already confident in their decision to hire me to support them. That’s the power of podcasting for your business. In this episode, I’m breaking down the three things you need to do in your podcast content to make sales calls an easy yes when converting your podcast listeners into clients.

You’re consistently publishing new content. Your content is packed with value, and you often hear from listeners how much they love your episodes, but you still feel like something is missing. You’re still wondering whether your podcast is truly successful or whether there’s more you can achieve with it. If you ever asked yourself, “How do I know if my podcast is successful?” Then today’s episode is for you. I’m breaking down the 7 metrics you need to track monthly to determine podcast success. If you’ve been tuning in to the podcast for a while, you may remember episode 63, where I shared the metrics you should be tracking when podcasting for your business. This episode is a follow-up to that one, sharing the podcast metrics I currently track (and teach my clients to track), why I track them, and how I use that information to grow my business.In this episode, I'm giving you all the tea on:The answer to how do I know if my podcast is successfulThe 7 podcast metrics you need to track monthly and whyHow tracking these metrics helps me make data driven decisions about my podcast to help support my business growthResources Mentioned in Today's Episode:Evergreen Marketing AcceleratorRelated Episodes and Blogs:Episode 287 Ways I Can Serve You:Join the Evergreen Marketing Era NewsletterEvergreen Marketing AcceleratorVIP Podcast LaunchMonthly Podcast ManagementRecommended Podcast + Business Tools:Email Marketing: Flodesk (14-day Free Trial)Podcast Hosting: Captivate (7-Day Free Trial) Recommended Keyword Research Platform: Keysearch.coCRM: Dubsado (Save 20% on your first month or year)Website Builder: Showit (30-Day Free Trial)Some of the above links are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.For show notes and resources mentioned in today's episode, head to www.mamaturnedmompreneur.com/episode290/Connect with Andria:Threads: @evergreenmarketingeraInstagram: @evergreenmarketingeraEmail: [email protected]: www.mamaturnedmompreneur.com

One thing that often holds business owners back from starting a podcast is the fear of running out of podcast topics. This fear is very valid, especially given that 90% of podcasts don’t make it past 3 episodes. So how do business owners who have published 200+ episodes hit that milestone? The answer is having a podcast content strategy. In today’s episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my podcast content strategy. I share everything from how I decide what to talk about each month to how I have an ever-growing list of podcast content topics in my podcast content bank. Whether you’re thinking about launching a podcast or are a seasoned podcaster, this episode is for you.In this episode, I'm giving you all the tea on:How I center my podcast content strategy on my business goalsWhat I do to never run out of podcast topic ideasThe strategy I use to ensure that I’m creating podcast content for my ideal buyersResources Mentioned in Today's Episode:Evergreen Marketing Accelerator Ways I Can Serve You:Join the Evergreen Marketing Era NewsletterEvergreen Marketing AcceleratorVIP Podcast LaunchMonthly Podcast ManagementRecommended Podcast + Business Tools:Email Marketing: Flodesk (14-day Free Trial)Podcast Hosting: Captivate (7-Day Free Trial) Recommended Keyword Research Platform: Keysearch.coCRM: Dubsado (Save 20% on your first month or year)Website Builder: Showit (30-Day Free Trial)Some of the above links are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.For show notes and resources mentioned in today's episode, head to www.mamaturnedmompreneur.com/episode289/Connect with Andria:Threads: @evergreenmarketingeraInstagram: @evergreenmarketingeraEmail: [email protected]: www.mamaturnedmompreneur.com

As women, we have many roles — wife, mother, friend, business owner, and so much more. It’s easy to fall into the habit of putting our own needs on the back burner to ensure everyone else we love is cared for. But the reality is that we can’t pour for an empty cup, and putting everyone else’s needs before our own leads to burnout. Today, I chat with Apolonia Cross all about this and the importance of prioritizing self care and soul care. While self care is a great way to pour back into yourself, you can’t self-care your way out of burnout. We often need to work on what’s going on internally and emotionally before we can even reap the benefits of self care. In this episode, you will learn:The importance of prioritizing self care and soul careWhy self care isn’t always the answer when you are burntoutHow to get started with both self care and soul careConnect with Apolonia Cross:WebsiteYouTubeInstagramFacebookFreebie Ways I Can Serve You:Join the Evergreen Marketing Era NewsletterEvergreen Marketing AcceleratorVIP Podcast LaunchMonthly Podcast ManagementRecommended Podcast + Business Tools:Email Marketing: Flodesk (14-day Free Trial)Podcast Hosting: Captivate (7-Day Free Trial)Recommended Keyword Research Platform: Keysearch.coCRM: Dubsado (Save 20% on your first month or year)Website Builder: Showit (30-Day Free Trial)Some of the above links are affiliate links, meaning I may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.
