The More Profitable Podcast with Stacey Harris
The Launch Mistakes That Cost You Sales and How to Avoid Them
It's easy to get stuck in gear and hosting choices and building new pages for your website when you're launching a podcast. But when we're using this as a tool to market our business, some things have got to be lined up from the jump so we actually see the results we want to see.
I have conversations with potential podcasters all the time where we end up talking about how many downloads they should expect, how quickly they'll see sales, or swinging the pendulum the other way, how long they have to provide value before they're "allowed" to make an offer. These are crazy questions because ultimately, they're not going to get you anywhere.
In this episode of The More Profitable Podcast, I'm zooming in on three mistakes I see business owners making when they launch their show. And I want to be really transparent with you. If you launch your podcast and manage to completely sidestep making any of these mistakes, congratulations, you're great. But you've also got to watch out that these don't sneak up later because they absolutely can if we're not paying attention.
