Summary
#716 I bought the equipment to start a podcast in 2008—but I was scared. In fact, putting my voice out there was so frightening that I didn't publish anything until 2010. But it wasn't long before I realized this show would become something special. Today, I want to take you back to that life-changing moment. Tune in because this session highlights why now is still a great time to create a new show around your brand! And with YouTube becoming a big player in the space, podcast discovery is about to change forever! That's why we added a video module to the upcoming Power-Up Podcasting 3.0. This newly overhauled version of our flagship course is the step-by-step solution you need to launch a successful show that gets found and grows your business! So check out SPI's All-Access Pass to unlock our community-powered course library! Show notes and more at SmartPassiveIncome.com/session716.
