Why is your podcast trailer episode so important, and information should you include?

I'll also share how long this episode should be AND share an outline to help you get started!

3 Main things that should be included in your podcast trailer:

  1. Value of your podcast (what your listeners will get as a result of tuning in)
  2. Format and frequency (what can your listeners expect?)
  3. About YOU (introduce yourself and share why you started the podcast!)

If you've never recorded a trailer episode for your podcast, don't worry - it's never too late! You can always backdate the episode to show up at the start of your feed.

Want to update your trailer episode? You can do that, too! Just make sure you "replace" the file instead of uploading it as a new episode.

Naming your podcast is an important step on your way to launching.

The biggest mistake I see people make when it comes to naming their podcast? They try to be clever instead of just being CLEAR.

Your goal with naming your podcast should be that your avatar sees it and knows immediately that it's the exact podcast they want and need.

In this episode I share an exercise and some questions to ask yourself as you brainstorm names for your podcast.
