The More Profitable Podcast with Stacey Harris

Podcast Housekeeping: How to Craft the Perfect Podcast Intro

Stacey Harris

New listeners to your podcast usually get their first impression from the intro. Is yours as effective as it can be?

This is the first part of actually getting into the foundational pieces of your podcast in this housekeeping series. If you happen to be a new listener of The More Profitable Podcast looking to launch your show, this is a good episode to start with. And if you’re an older listener with a podcast, it’s a good refresher to clean up or update things if you haven’t done so in a while.

Today on the show, we’ll revisit the four checkpoints for how to craft the perfect podcast introduction. This is one aspect of podcasting where we tend to have a “set it and forget it” approach. But you’ll learn how to make sure it’s (still) doing the job you want it to for your show.
