Define the Purpose of Your Podcast

I’m asked by people all of the time “How can I start a podcast?”

My first question is, “Why do you want a podcast? What will be your major purpose for having a podcast?”

You must be able to answer those two questions BEFORE you even try to start a podcast. Otherwise, you have no direction for what you are trying to accomplish.

It would be like launching a boat into a moving river but having no rudder to control the boat!

Your purpose cannot only be “Because I want to have a podcast.” You must have a direct purpose for the podcast…

Are you trying to teach a subject that you are an expert in
Are you trying to share a message or theme that will help others?
Are you trying to interview experts to help people with problems the expert can provide info on?
Are you promoting your (or other people’s) business, books, music or other things?

You must identify the main reason you want to put the work in to develop a good, quality podcast.

Just to push record and then post the recording somewhere with no thought as to “why” you are creating the content will not bless others. It will not help you to accomplish whatever “it is” that you are trying to do.

If you put some time into identifying the “WHY,” and then using that as your focus, you will be able to launch faster, create great content that will help others AND increase your impact, grow your podcast, your business, ministry, etc.

Find your “WHY” and then proceed…

Let me know what your “WHY” is for your podcast (either existing or planned).

Share this with others. Leave a comment. Let me know your thoughts…

Perhaps you will inspire someone who has been struggling with this exact issue!

Perhaps someone will leave a comment that will inspire you!

Be Blessed in ALL That You Do!
