Podcast hacking
I beat Tim Ferris
A couple of years ago, I co-hosted a podcast.
It was called “Love Line for Business,” which will make no sense if you never listened to “Loveline” in the late 90’s.
Basically, it was a PG-13 business advice podcast.
We developed a small but loyal following.
Several episodes in, Love Line for Business overtook the Tim Ferris podcast on iTunes...
(in the Dominican Republic.....for about 20 minutes.)
And when we launched, we were even able to place on the top 100 business podcasts in iTunes:

We produced 80-ish episodes, which sadly are no longer available.
But the impact this small podcast had on our professional lives was remarkable.
Lots of doors opened.
Lots of relationships built.
Lots of dad jokes told.
Producing a podcast is a lot of work, and I do not recommend it if you cannot commit to weekly episodes for at least 3 years.
However, you can reap many of the benefits of exposure, expert positioning, and relationship building with a lot less effort…
Simply get yourself on to someone else’s podcast as a guest.
Podcast hosts are constantly looking for new guests.
It’s their content creation hamster wheel.
You are doing them a favor.
And you can get your product, service, or brand in front of thousands of targeted new audiences.
It’s a win-win.
The only problem is that arranging and booking guest appearances is tedious.
Luckily, there are far better solutions nowadays than there were when I was running one…
