10 Steps to 25 Episodes - Step #5 - CREATE & RECORD YOUR FIRST EPISODE

Published: Oct. 17, 2016, 7 a.m.

Welcome to 10 steps to 25 episodes. This program is designed to help you launch your podcast and publish your first 25 episodes.

THIS IS STEP #5 - CREATE & RECORD YOUR FIRST EPISODE. It's time to put together your very first episode! I put emphasis on this episode because this will ultimately be one of your most listened-to episodes. People will discover you years from now and they will come back and listen to this episode. I recommend that you use this episode as an introduction of who you are to your new audience.  In essence, you are using this first episode to say, "hello!" to the world.

While there are many "podcast launch" programs available, this series is focused on your content and helping you tell your story.  I also want to help you develop disciplines and habits to help you overcome the initial fear of talking into a microphone. Finally, this series is NOT focused on social media, marketing or monetization...there are plenty of podcast guides that focus on those elements.

Thanks and I hope my 10 steps program helps you launch the podcast of your dreams!
