It's too easy to gloss over the difficult parts of podcasting that, when done right, help make a show truly outstanding and remarkable.
If you think about the process you go through when making an episode of your podcast, you’ll find some of them are less easy than others, possibly even difficult for you. Being a podcaster requires a variety of skills. It’s the rare superhuman (whom I’ve never met) who’s skilled in all aspects required to make a great podcast. Everyone struggles to complete at least one aspect of the podcasting process. Probably a lot more than one.
Perhaps there’s an area where your skills are lacking and you need more training. Or maybe, thanks to the realities of time, you have to take shortcuts. Perhaps you’re just going through the motions or one task because a self-purported expert said you should. Or maybe there’s a speedbump in your process that you absolutely loathe. You do it, begrudgingly, but you hate it.
Now choose one of those difficult things and give yourself 30 days to make that difficult task less difficult for you. Yes, a month. That’s probably enough time to address this single difficult concern and make you significantly more competent in that aspect of podcasting.
Remember: that one difficult thing we’re doing poorly probably has an outsized impact on the listener experience. While your biggest fans will always forgive you for some muddled-through steps, not everyone is in that camp. And if you want your show to grow, you should always be thinking about those who have yet to listen. If there’s a difficult step your doing poorly, that might be getting in their way.

Described as the “liqueur of the virtues” by one of the most famous 19th C. Italian authors Gabriele D’Annunzio, it’s no wonder that https://www.amaromontenegro.com/ (Amaro Montenegro) is Italy's #1 Premio Amaro.
It’s full of secrets too, which also might be why it’s so successful. Can one spirit be virtuous and secretive at the same time? We’ll have to ask its Master Herbalist and Global Brand Ambassador?
I’m Susan Schwartz, your drinking companion, and this is, Lush Life Podcast, every week we are inspired to live life one cocktail at a time.
Velvety, smooth, inviting, no wonder D'Annunzio and his fellow Italians love it. I am thrilled to have Matteo Bonoli, the Master Herbalist, and Rudi Carraro, the Global Brand Ambassador, on Lush Life to introduce me to Amaro Montenegro’s virtues and secrets.

New episodes every Tuesday, usually!!
When the pandemic just getting started almost a year ago, an existing client introduced me to an associate of hers who was looking for a production partner on a new podcasting idea she had. While the company already had some internal competency in podcasting, two things were clear:
The standard business podcast format wouldn’t be sufficient
I’d need some help!
So I reached out to http://twitter.com/walkersam (Sam Walker), veteran podcaster with BBC chops who moved to Phoenix literally on a whim two years ago. We presented an idea that didn’t perfectly fit the “branded content” mold either. We knew the branding would be incredibly light, but we knew the success of the show would ultimately be graded on its ability to drive business outcomes. We also had a strong mandate and an opportunity to make a show that would be appealing well beyond the target demographic. So we crafted a unique approach that would bring compelling stories to the episodes and a narrative arc to the six-episode first season in such a way that the secondary and tertiary demographics—people who are customers of and have experiences with companies, so that’s kind of everyone!—would be intrigued and might sample.
We also knew we needed to approach perfection in the quality of that audio, a lofty goal made more complicated by the pandemic and a guest list that demanded the most out of in-home recordings. So I turned to exceptional sound engineer https://www.meonlylouder.com/ (Marcus dePaula), who I’d been wanting to work with on a project for more than a year now, for the incredibly important yet often overlooked task worthy of a podcasting project of this scale: mastering.
Marcus took the commissioned theme music and added it to the mix, using isolated riffs and secretions from the trucks and building loops to create give character, texture, and emphasis to the spoken words, drawing the ear’s attention back to the main points made by the guests and host. And he worked hard—like, incredibly hard—to clean up some 20 different less-than-perfectly-recorded conversations with people (not podcasters) all around the world so that the natural differences in those recordings weren’t so noticeable to put casual listeners off the show.
And wow, did that work pay off!
Without further ado (because that was a lot of ado), I present to you http://sap.com/expeeriencepodcast (season one of ExPEERience), hosted by https://www.linkedin.com/in/paula-hansen-20a7113 (Paula Hanson), Chief Revenue Officer for https://www.sap.com/products/crm.html (SAP Customer Experience).
I hope you’ll give it a listen. I think you're really going to appreciate what we accomplished from a content-creation point of view as a podcaster. But I also think you’ll like it as a listener. It’s packed with solid insights we can all relate to as customers. And you’ll probably find plenty of takeaways for how you might improve the listener experience of your own podcasting efforts.
