TRANSCRIPT
The only way toget on iTunes
N&N is throughdoing the work
There are no shortcuts or
paid "launch teams" that
will get you there, but
the following 10 steps
will work:
Lead with passion
Create energetic, passionate and
valuable niche-content with a clear
strategy on who you want to reach and
why you want to reach them.
Let them feel it in yourvoice.
Do the work
Hire an editor or even beef up your audio-
editing skills to make HQ sound that
people will love to hear. If someone
doesn't like how you sound, they WILL
unsubscribe.
Don't lose downloads oversomething you can directlycontrol!
Ask for support
If you're a heart centered
entrepreneur who has been of
service to your circle for years, then
your close friends and family now
have the opportunity to step up to
the plate and support you with 2
minutes of their time.
Ask for support
again and again
Make phone calls, email your list and
create moments of vulnerability where
you explain how much the iTunes reviews
mean to you and your message.
Be tenacious. Do not stopuntil you get a "NO."
Make it easy for
people to leave
reviews
Create a Pretty Link for your
direct iTunes show and
announce on air, send to your
email subscribers, social
channels and any literally
digital link platform you can.
Hold the hands of
those you care
about
Produce explainer videos in Screenflow
for both desktop & iOS. I can't tell you
how many times I had to walk people
through how to leave a review in iOS
even after sending them screenshots.
Just do it!
Don't waste time
on Android users
Let's be real, Android in the
podcasting world is stuck in 1998.
Create good
looking podcast art
Share each episode on social
with a clean and professional
looking show art photo w/
guest quote. Use Canva.
Ask other people to
share
It sounds basic, but don't forget to
ask key influencers in your space to
share your show.
Including your guests!
Be true to your
mission & message
Know why you are doing what you
are doing. Make sure it is coming
from the most genuine and
vulnerable place.
Be real because peoplecan smell bullsh*t.
There isno finish
line.
Happy podcasting!
