Podcasting has grown significantly over the last decade, from a few hundred thousand to now over 2 million registered podcasts. And while nearly everyone has heard of podcasting, few people have their own podcast and even fewer people use it to grow their business. Today’s guest, Joe Lemon, is the founder of Shaping Culture, a media agency focused on generating revenue.
On this episode of The Clarity Advisors Show, Joe talks with host Ken Trupke about how he helps micro business leaders have more conversations, build referral partners, and generate high-quality leads. He also shares how you can leverage other people's podcasts to grow your business.

Episode quotes
“A lot of times the marketing tools out there are mass marketing tools, but for me to have a great year is 20 clients. We don't need a ton of people. We just need the right people."
"Podcasts allow you to sit down with someone, be human, and just have a regular conversation with them.”
“If I had to start from ground zero, I would start on other people's shows first. With other people's shows, there's already an audience baked in there ready to go.”
"I think the beauty of podcasting is that they can listen to it on their time.”
“(Most customers) do all their homework online first. They want to see what you have going on online. They want to read the blog post, they want to listen to the podcast.”
