200 EPISODES! If you’ve ever thought about starting a podcast or building a content brand, this post is for YOU.
Two years ago, I started The Business Development Podcast with zero experience. No studio, no video, just a mic and a mission. Fast forward 200 episodes, and I’ve learned lessons that can save you time, money, and frustration as you build your content strategy for 2025.
10 Game-Changing Lessons for Experts & Business Leaders:
✅ Podcasting is a powerful way to share your expertise. You don’t need to be a media pro—your knowledge is valuable.
✅ Your impact will be bigger than you expect. My show is now in 145+ countries. I never saw that coming.
✅ The right people will support you. Sponsors, listeners, and industry peers will step up when you show up consistently.
✅ Consistency is everything. If you want long-term success, stick to your schedule—no matter what.
✅ Building a brand is a marathon, not a sprint. Your first 50 episodes won’t make you famous—but they’ll lay the foundation.
✅ Monetization isn’t optional. If you want to scale, you need a financial strategy from day one.
✅ Podcast ads are hit or miss. Be selective—many are scams. Spotify is a decent bet, but organic growth wins.
✅ The podcasting community is small—but incredibly powerful. Build relationships, collaborate, and grow together.
✅ It will change you. The confidence, network, and skills you develop will transform your career.
✅ You can change the world. If you’ve ever wanted to leave a legacy, this is one of the best ways to do it.
