I think it took me about a whole day to decide on starting and launching a podcast. I loved this series, I'd been thinking about starting one for so long and I'm glad I finally did it!
I can't thank you enough for taking the time to create this in-depth course on how to start a Podcast. It felt so over-whelming thinking about all the things I had zero expertise on -- equipment, software, Podcast directories, etc. Feeling really excited to publish my podcast in less than 10 days ;) See you on the flip side!
Thank you for this video, I appreciate the realism here with discussion of imposter syndrome and advising against spamming. Reddit can be rough! Answering quora questions is interesting, though, leaving little signposts around the web. I've been considering doing paid ads but I didn't know if it'd be worth it, but 100 more people is significant.
Ads work, but only if the ads are somewhere where people are looking for podcasts. My recommendations are advertising in Player FM, Overcast, and on the Discover Pods website.
This Buzzsprout launch video was SO helpful....and I am really going to get moving! I subscribed to Buzzsprout a few days ago, have all my equipment and am still waffling over a NAME (topic) and finally getting recording. I feel easier knowing that Buzzsprout will be doing a lot of things FOR ME that I just don't understand. I am an old broadcaster from my teen years, so I love the mic and am not nervous, I just have to take that jump and settle on my topic and name and get my first cast done, so I can submit it to my host. Stay on my back Sprouts, I've already gotten some "let's go" email from you and I appreciate and NEED that. Wish me luck everyone!
You can do it, Robert! And remember you can always rebrand your podcast if you come up with a better name/topic in a few months: www.buzzsprout.com/blog/how-to-rebrand-a-podcast

Hi Alban, that was the most comfort tips review for that episode I just listen and your voice alone felt very comfortable to listen to with reassurance..That toke the nervousness, anxiety and doubts and procrastination, I’m serious..I have everything that I need to start my new podcast and and I have tested it with some great people whom I interview already and they all feel that I have the Broadcast voice that gets the listener attention...So I signed up with buzzspout yesterday by one of your colleagues or was it you!?! I don’t remember but anyway I’m here despite everything that’s going around right now around the world this may be my opportunity.. Thank You man!!...

I am really optimistic about starting a podcast; after listening to you. I have question as I am setting a date to launch - as I introduce my podcast; should I start with an introduction as podcast one and the next podcast actually start with podcast lesson? Or maybe I should create a blog with the introduction and then give information about how to listen to my podcast…..please advise (thanks).
These videos are so damn helpful! I've officially launched my own Podcast mainly because of these Buzzsprout guide videos. Thank you so much for the 100% helpful advice!
These videos are so helpful! Thank you so much! I am shooting for a launch date in the next 10-14 days! Quick question about the microphone you had in the description in the video about Equipment and Software (Samson Q2U). Currently, this microphone is back-ordered is there another one similar that I would be able to get in a more timely manner? Thanks!
Hey Alban, thank you so much for these fantastic videos! Super encouraging - like an educational pep rally! Real quick question: what retailer do you most recommend to purchase the equipment? Is there a trusted, quality retailer that will likely have your recommended equipment/service? Thanks!
You can purchase equipment from each retailer on Amazon! You can find links to our gear recommendations here: www.buzzsprout.com/blog/how-to-start-a-podcast##podcast-equipment
