I Made A Podcast

Welcome back to "I Made a Podcast"! In this crucial third part of my series with Myles, we dive deep into the essential steps for launching your own financial podcast. Myles is nervous, like many new creators, but together, we tackle his specific challenges. He shares his podcast concept, "Handsome Investments," focusing on real estate, crypto, and wealth building for modern asset owners. We discuss the importance of a realistic episode cadence and how batch recording can prevent burnout, a key strategy for spring 2026.

I reveal my "3-episode launch strategy" – including your compelling introductory episode – to ensure new listeners subscribe right away. Learn why planning your launch with multiple episodes is vital for initial traction and listener engagement. We also explore the critical importance of reading terms and conditions for platforms like Mailchimp (Miles learned this the hard way with "crypto education") and your podcast host to avoid unexpected account shutdowns. Plus, discover how to leverage social media for pre-launch buzz, use a QR code strategy, and identify your ideal listener to attract sponsors. This episode is packed with practical, actionable advice for any aspiring podcaster looking for a strong start in 2026. Join us to learn how to make your podcast a success!
