STEP UP YOUR MARKETING GAME!

1. If you are considering starting a podcast, do it now-there isn't too much competition. Start by listening to shows that you enjoy and brainstorming ideas on how to turn topics into your own.
2. If your content is not evergreen, add a date to the into of your episode. When people listen to it, they will then understand that it's an old episode, as opposed to thinking you released old news.
3. For more information and tips on how to create a podcast, download Rob's free iBook Podcast101.
