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.

This show delivers actionable strategies to help you uncover what's blocking your podcast growth, then gives you the strategic SEO, workflows, and systems to fix it.

We'll cover questions like:

Why isn't my podcast growing even though I'm doing everything "right"?

How does podcast SEO actually work on Apple Podcasts and Spotify?

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?

You're publishing consistently, the content is solid, and your podcast still isn't bringing in clients. If you've been showing up and can't figure out why listeners aren't converting, this one is for you.

The problem almost never lives where podcasters think it does. It's not the content, but the structure holding it together, specifically, the listener journey. When that's missing, even a great show becomes a place people visit once and leave.

This episode breaks down what a listener journey is, what it looks like when it's missing, and the three things every episode needs to start turning listeners into leads. Plus, hear how one client fixed her conversion rate without touching a single new episode.
