Yes, you can! There are more resources available now than ever to help you create and grow a profitable podcast.
I launched my podcast in 2013 and grew it to a consistent 5-figure revenue stream in the last few years. Podcasting can be a hobby, but it can also be a thriving business model for self-starters on up to large enterprises.
In this week’s episode of The 5 AM Miracle Podcast I speak with Dave Jackson, author of Profit from Your Podcast, about how you can get started in the fun world of podcasting, or grow your current show into something that really does make money.
Also, check out my Podcast Tools for a complete list of all the hardware, software, and online resources I use to produce The 5 AM Miracle.
