In this week’s episode, I’m flying solo and addressing the importance of consistency. If content is king and quality is queen, consistency is a Joker. Let’s say someone stumbles upon your podcast and listens to all of your available podcast episodes. They’re hooked. They subscribe and are eagerly anticipating your next episode. They come back a week later and you have not posted a new episode. A week later they check again and there are still no new episodes. Do you think this person is going to keep coming back? I doubt it. This is why consistency is the key to creating a successful podcast.

This week’s episode is our third consultation with Munib. This consultation is all about developing a launch strategy for your podcast. Launching your podcast can be as simple as recording your first episode, editing it, uploading to your host and distributing your RSS feed platforms such as iTunes. However, developing a launch plan can put your podcast in a position to take off from day one. Always remember, it is all about the work you put in on the front end.

In this week’s episode, I sit down with my friend, Rufus Lott to discuss how starting a podcast could help him grow his consulting business. Rufus has been an education consultant for about a year. He partnered up with another friend, Kevin Curtis to create Texas Educators for Restorative Practices (TEXRP). I can attest from personal experience that Rufus and Kevin are equally qualified to train educators in Restorative Practices. With that said, Kevin has about a year and a half head start on Rufus as an independent educational consultant. As we all know with consulting, branding is everything. Our conversation focuses on how Rufus can use podcasting to build his brand, as well as Kevin’s, to help push their TEXRP to the next level.

This week’s episode is our second consultation with Munib Sheikh. The focus of this consultation is to help Munib define his avatar. An avatar is a profile of the ideal person who will resonate with your podcast. Defining your avatar will help you remain focused when creating content. Podcasting is a lot like fishing. There are plenty of fish in the ocean, lake or river and there are many different ways to catch them. With that said, if you go with fishing without a plan, you’re likely to walk away with an empty cooler. However, if you determine you are fishing specifically for bass and use bait that bass like, you are more likely to catch a bass or two on your trip. While you may not walk away with a cooler full of bass the first time you go fishing, you will be better equipped to catch bass in the future which will translate to more successful fishing trips. The same is true for podcasting - you may not get 10,000 listeners in the first month but if you focus on your target audience, it will translate to future success.

In this week’s episode, I sit down with my friend, Munib Sheikh, for a consultation. Munib has been playing around with some vlogging on Facebook Live, but would like to get serious about becoming a true content creator. The focus of this consultation is helping Munib to discover “Why” he wants to be a content creator. The reason we are focusing on his “Why” is because this is what will determine the vision for his content.

This week’s episode is the genesis of Podcast Caddy. My friend Wallace and I had wrapped up recording an episode for my YouTube Channel, Klassic Konversations, and he asked me for some guidance about how to get his podcast started. I decided to turn on the camera and capture the discussion. At the time, I didn’t realize that this conversation would be the inception for Podcast Caddy.

This is the launch episode for the Podcast Caddy Podcast. The Podcast Caddy Podcast is a weekly show committed to helping future podcasters and current podcasters navigate through some of the challenges they may face when becoming a content creator. While there are several great podcasts for podcasters already established, those podcasts primarily focus on the reflective experience of established podcasters. Our focus will be documenting the experience of people like many of you who want to start podcasting and/or videocasting but don’t know what to do or how to do it.
