I want to fill you in on a secret in podcasting… Sometimes support isn’t the answer.  Shocking, I know.  But the truth is, not everything can be outsourced (telling you what can’t be in this week’s podcast episode).  BUT WHEN IT CAN be outsourced - you have to make some educated hiring decisions.  What will make your hiring decisions educated you ask? This is pretty simple.  Prior to hiring, you n...

You drive me crazy right now. I've heard a lot of conversations and comments on the internet, with friends, etc. The batching is just this stifling, creativity-killing apparatus just built to destroy your podcast. Okay. I might be a little dramatic there at the end, but it's true. So, so many podcasters really think that batching is about giving up everything that's great about thei...

You’ve probably heard me talk about my right hand, Cali - well, she’s on the show this week! That’s right, after 2.5 years working together, we finally did a show together.  I’m thrilled to share more of her with you in this way. She is really the air traffic controller behind all our client production and internal projects (and I’ve just started calling her an air traffic controller since this sh...

If you haven’t heard, both Apple and Facebook released some podcast related news recently.  These announcements could impact some things with your podcast, how you set things up on the backend, and how you release certain content.  We walk you through all the updates and what they mean for you in this week’s episode , but here’s a quick summary:  Apple has some new things rolling out, namely the a...

I don't care about clean audio on your podcast. There, I said it. And I bet that’s shocking to a few of you since I run a podcast production agency and have a degree in audio engineering. But the truth is that often we get caught up in the audio as if that’s what needs to be fixed about our shows. That’s why they aren’t converting or growing our business. And that’s BS. There are really only...

Let’s talk about making changes to your podcast. Should you or shouldn’t you? We work with a lot of clients that want to change up things about their show - their cover art, intro music, if they have guests or not, etc.  In our opinion, your show should be always evolving.  You should be growing and shifting as your business and client needs change.  With that being said, not all changes are neede...

Let’s talk about having guests on your show.  It can be a huge asset to your podcast to have guests on, BUT only if you’re not making the 3 common mistakes we’re mentioning on our show this week.  Don’t worry, the 3 mistakes we’re sharing with you are pretty simple to fix if you do find you’re making them - don’t be discouraged.  We share these this week because we’re seeing more and more shows ha...

Alright, we’re one quarter into the year, how are you feeling about your podcast?  If you’re anything like many of the people I’ve been hearing from, you’re not feeling super fired up about it. You’re itching to make it better. To make it simpler and more effective.  Well guess what.  There are 3 SIMPLE ways you can improve your show in the next month.  They are easy, take very little effort, and...

Remember how last week we shared that we didn’t quit podcasting (see, we’re posting to you right now about a new episode!). Well...there was a time that our CEO @thestaceyharris did quit a show. And we think it will be good for you to hear the story of how that went down. Not because there was any drama, but because it may help you understand when it’s time to let go. The truth is, not all podcast...

Have you ever just wanted to quit your podcast?  If you had a little “yep” inside, you’re not alone.  In fact, MOST podcasters give up on their show at some point.  Why?  Because they are a LOT of work. There’s no way around it, producing a show consistently takes a lot of time and energy.  And the truth is, many of the podcasters who quit do so because they feel disconnected from the intention of...

Let’s have a quick chat about organization...I know, I know that sounds boring, but TRUST ME, it’s what makes the success and growth of your podcast possible.  Take this from someone who is a bit more “go with the flow” - organization has helped us at Uncommonly More and our clients IMMENSELY.  In fact, helping clients organize their podcasting process is the most important piece of what we do. Wh...

There has been A LOT going around about scaling and nurturing and growing these days.  And while I’m all for these, I think way too often we lose sight of how we can do these most effectively.  I’ve found that for my business, emailing and podcasting for BY FAR the best scaling nurture aspects of my business.  That’s somewhat because of who my audience is and mostly because I have found ways to nu...

Is it still feeling hard to get your podcast out into the world?  Does your process or team flow just feel off?  We hear you - and have GOOD NEWS.  Improving your production flow (which is what we call these steps it takes to edit, create show notes, post your show, etc.) is one of the easiest areas of your podcast to work on.  Whether you are DIYing it, have a VA or freelancer helping, or have hi...

We’re pretty sure we’re going to get some pushback on this week’s podcast episode.  Why?  Because we’re calling us all out on our BS around our podcasting processes.  The truth is, so, so, so often clients come to us TIRED of making their podcast. And almost always, the issue is the process of how they are making it.  And let us just say this right now - not having a process IS A PROCESS.  And no,...

Do you know what’s standing between you and podcast success?  No, it’s not releasing more shows (or more consistent shows - although yes, Love, that would help).  It’s knowing the PURPOSE of your show.  Why are you making it and why should we listen?  Knowing the answer to this question IS THE SOLUTION to having a successful show.  Trust me on this one, I’m doing what I preach over here.  When we...

Are you sick of the DIY thing?  I hear this so often with our podcast production clients.  They came to us at Uncommonly More because, honestly, they just couldn’t do it anymore.  Between the recording, editing, making show notes, sharing the word on email or social media, and/or coordinating with guests, they were reaching the end of their ropes.  PLUS, they were falling behind on recording or no...

Do you wish your sound quality was better on your podcast or Zoom meetings?  Do you think that a new, shiny mic is the answer to that problem?  I’m here to suggest that a mic is not what needs to be adjusted.  Don’t run out and throw money at a “solution” (aka a new mic) that might not actually fix anything.  Instead, there are 3 changes we can make (simply and with what we already have - and I pr...

Are you fired up for the year? Ready to go?  Or just not mentally as in the game as before?  No judgement for either one (and we have to admit, we’re much more in the “just not mentally in the game” phase at the moment, you know, considering ALL that’s going on...). And if there’s one thing we’ve learned about myself and not being in the zone, it’s that it happens.  It happens to every.single.one....

Woah. We made it to the end of 2020.  Are you with me in feeling some relief about this?  As much as I’m ready to jump into the new year, I’m still taking this end of the year time to reflect on 3 CRUCIAL items that will help my podcast next year.  These are 3 things I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you look at as well if you have a show too.
