Podcast Growth and SEO Strategies for Entrepreneurs | Podcasting Problem Solver

Your podcast isn't growing because you're solving the wrong problem.

As an entrepreneur, you're following all the podcast advice, posting consistently, sharing more clips, and showing up everywhere, but your downloads are stuck, and your show isn't generating leads. You're chasing bad advice instead of investigating the real issue blocking your podcast growth.

Which podcast categories should I choose to improve discoverability?

How do I optimize for search without my podcast sounding robotic?

How can I batch record and save 3-5 hours per episode?

What's keeping my podcast from converting listeners into leads?

How do I create content based on what people are actually searching for?

Should I use keywords or my brand name in my podcast title?

How do I know if my podcast strategy is actually working?

Can I grow my podcast without being all over social media?

What metrics should I track besides download numbers?
