1. Hard consistency.
2. Analytics bad.
3. Start not right.
4. Social media bad guest forum stage.
5. Reviews.
I honestly the most important point is to never stop. I think so many people like you said will Pod Fade so if you don't stop you'll have an edge on your competitors.

It’s called “pod-cast” so in essence I agree with your theory as to “cast” your “pod”(line/ fishing rod) again and again, you do increase your chances of “catching” more. 😎 🍻
well put. to add: and this is why those who are successful are, you got it!
Klk manito. Good call. Don’t stop, plan ahead and play the long game. 👍🏿 🇩🇴
Very refreshing to hear a more successful person say how difficult it is to stay consistent. So many people say to stay consistent, but don't admit how hard it really is. Thank you!

True
When I was doing daily videos on tou tube it was fine. Work from 7:30 til 5pm, shoot on the way to work and to home, then stay up till 2 or three editing. Didn't do it for long, everything else in my life changed and the CBFs took hold
I have been meaning to do a podcast for 4 years, but here I am not.
Being an anxious person, and I know things are about to change with a a kid maybe on the way( another story) and moving/buying a house and I am anxious about not continuing to produce stuff. The starting doesn't bother me the failing does.
If you know what I mean.
Right before covid I put out a casting call for a general you tube sketch channel and vlog( fat and ordinary, since that is how I feel much of the time) got a really good response and had already written scripts for about 15 stories about working in retail as a smart arse. I had 9 people fully committed to come on board and it was going to be fun....
Now.....meh.
I am a bit older, a bit fatter, a bit more ordinary.
Just saying.
I will put my mini violin away now. 😜
@@nunchuckfilms - never say never. you sound like you have stories to tell. I'm sure others would listen. After, I read your msg.
@@nunchuckfilms you can still do it
Serious TRUTH about the social media part. If you’re early in your journey too most of your social media following is just your friends and they’ll already listen... or they don’t care because they’ve already heard all of your insight 🤷🏽♂️😄
I mean it's a good reminder for them to check out the show they already know, but other than that, it's not a huge win.
If I ever start one, I do not want my fam/friends to even know about it :D
@@anjanaa89sa lol! That could be a good thing. You could create with no restrictions. But like Gary V always says.. don’t worry about what others think. Just make stuff. 💪🏾
@@iamjasonthompson I actually don't care about what others think & proceed doing what I wanna do which makes my fam/friends reach out and share advice asking me to be conditioned like them and please the society and the elders in it :D May be I am just another hypocrite :p
@@anjanaa89sa hehe. Good for you. It’s tough. I just think it’s hard to please society and elders and keep the freedom of creative expression. I’ve had a parent tell me to “be careful” because my community/society is watching. What’s lame is those who censor themselves for people who aren’t supporting their creativity will never move forward. It’s a waste of time in my opinion.
I finally took the leap and launched my first podcast "Faithfully Confident with Courtney Berry" and I'm so sad it took me so long to launch it. I was worried I'd have pod-fade and worried I wouldn't be consistent. After launching, I had NO IDEA you could schedule episodes out lol.... good grief!
I searched for it and couldn’t find it
I’ll subscribe to it!
What’s it on?
Yhygy
Just subscribed keep going 💗
Consistency is kind of a no brainer but it is so important no matter what type of content you’re creating
This Video was Awesomeness, “You build it and they will come” priceless.
This has been my favorite episode so far! Really enjoyed towards the end about reaching out directly to a fan. Thank you for all the great info!
Pat, I love your one-on-one idea of reaching out to viewers. That's brilliant! I'm a writer and online seller, so I already know that trying to get reviews/ratings is like pulling teeth. Thanks for the video! 😊
This is so interesting and encouraging. I honestly felt burnt out at the 11th or 12th episodes, and it really created a lot of self-doubts about the value of my content. Thanks for the great tips. It really helps getting back to the work I so love.
I started podcasting today and came to know about it. I felt bored a bit but I wanted to create a personal brand of my channel, therefore I decided to be consistent. I will spend daily 1 hour for writing the script and making the podcast recording and editing. Therefore I won't stop my new hobby i.e. story telling. Thank you for your video. Though I want to make money from that as a side hustle but before doing that I have to make good episodes so that the listeners may rise.
Hey thanks for the info! When I learned about podcasting (a conference training) consistency was brought to the forefront as a challenge (I've already seen it in shows that I like/would like). I appreciate that you named reviews and showed that a quick video message (also thinking that a voice message via FB) is a great option to reach out personally and make the ask. Thank you.
Thanks, man. Sending an individual recording to listeners for a review is a golden idea.
As usual, your message and delivery are to the point, clear and not sugar-coating the TRUTH. You have saved me lots of future losses and frustration. Thank you Pat.
You probably (definitely) don't remember this but we met in person at Target YEARS ago and you encouraged me to start a podcast way back then, I hate that I didn't listen! My wife and I finally found our niche and are starting one up this year =) nice to see you still trucking!
Just wanna say thank you. 🙏 I'm trying to start my own podcast and you making this video giving me some tips and advice really helps. I appreciate it.
This is very helpful. Just getting ready to started mine and doing research. So appreciate the “what doesn’t work “ at the beginning of the journey. Consistency is a big takeaway. Thanks so much!
That was really helpful Pat. I've found lots of advice about purchasing and using equipment for starting up a podcast, but I wanted practical advice about the journey, and that's what you gave. Many Thanks.
Thanks for this. The most important aspect for me was marketing tips. I have started 5 companies through my life, all but the last failed due to under-cap and dismal marketing. (I had to shut down the last due to finally being overwhelmed by life--long brain disfunction.) I write and record songs so I already have the recording/editing studio - the discussion and advice here (and the links) are helpful. This is not the only podcast tutorial I am watching, but you do present information and encouragement. Thanks.
I started a podcast 3 days ago and this video was very well timed for me. Thank you so much for your advice.
What's it called ?
Can see you posted this 6months ago...how is it going?
@@lulusaidi6629 Hi Lulu, it's not going well. I stopped the podcast last year. However, I think I want to try again, and really push it out to my followers.
All the best. Second time’s a charm...if I may ask what are the lessons youve learnt from the last time?
@@lulusaidi6629 Thank you for your support. I’d say don’t do it alone or find somewhere you can post the episodes and get feedback. None of the podcasting platforms allow for commenting so unlike CZcams, it can be very hard to get feedback. Feedback can usually motivate you to carry on as well which is something I was missing out on a lot.
This is so helpful Pat thank you so much. I actually just started a podcast last Sunday.
Pat, as always, You Are Awesome. Your generosity to others, your kind spirit, and your wealth of information is so impressive and helpful. Thanks again, David, your SD neighbor (Encinitas)
These tips are good! I have to re listen & take notes as I started a podcast. I’m on episode 2 and for me I want to stay consistent! So I’m glad Pat talked about that.
What the name of your podcast?
How's your podcast going?
How is it doing now
How's your podcast doing so far?
This is mind blowing video, I enjoyed watching every single frame of it and I found tons of valuable infos in it! Thank you very much for sharing this dude 🤓🤟🏼
Thank you for an entertaining, informative and insightful VT. I shall download your kind offer of a crib sheet as well. Gr8 work.
This helped a lot, especially the Review point. My husband and I have been talking about starting a podcast.
Thank you Pat! Your energy is contagious and I love it. Your information was presented beautifully especially the little recap at the end. Cheers!!
Appreciate the video Pat...I am starting my own podcast and this was super valuable! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing these tips. Have a great weekend!
Much appreciated all of the gold that you dropped here! Excited to implement them
Thank you so much! I really wanted to start a podcast this is a big help!
From 🇵🇭 here
Thank you putting this together. Very helpful and encouraging for those of us thinking to start one
Thanks Pat, I’ve been on a podfade every since I started a business in 2018 and I began dealing with #3. I even had your player, it’s the 💩 ! Thanks for all the content you push out, in this episode all 5 tips were helpful, I’ve had a intuitive feeling that #4 is correct as well so thanks for sharing the plug for the PK site👊🏽😎
Thanks, Pat! I discovered your SPI podcast a month ago and have been absorbing it daily. I'm a burnt out college teacher ready to try something new. I've decided to start a podcast where I talk to physics educators and share their strategies and insights with the teaching community. I just scheduled my first interview today! This is really happening!! A month ago I couldn't have even imagined doing a podcast at all. Thanks for everything you are putting out there. Even "bad news" like you shared in this video isn't enough to get me down. Those seem like reasonable hurdles to overcome, but I'm glad to know about them early.
Hi! Excuse me, if you don't mind, I'd like to ask you how thing have been going for you! I'm interested in starting one soon and wanted to know how things have changed since your start up! Thank you in advance for any helpful insight.
Don't forget that if you use hashtags and post more often, post stories often you will get new people on social media.
Really good advice! My friend and I are starting a sports podcast, and this gave me some ideas about how to reach out to our niche target audience of local sports fans. Thanks again!!
My brother and I barely know each other and decided we're going to get to know each other while recording a Podcast. It should be fun! This video was very helpful, now I will be able to develop a strategy to get listeners and keep them!
Thank you so much Pat Stay Blessed and keep Growing the way you want to, Reach more success peaks I am about to start a podcast and just got best lessons today from you. 🙏🙌
We are watching and learning from our Post Secondary School in Lincoln Park, MI. We enjoyed your tips and tricks. Some of the tips that really stuck out to us are the following: Just because you start a podcast, doesn't mean people will listen; Replying with personal message when asking for a review is a great strategy, Social media shouldn't be our only avenue to gain more listeners. Thank you for a great video. We learned a lot!!!
I love this. Thank you I am looking to start my podcast in January as I am planning ahead with content...as you suggested. cheers
Thanks for all your info! You are giving me much more confidence to do my own without my sidekick since our schedules for work are so busy!
Thank you Pat for the great advice, I've been working on my Podcast for about 6 months and you advice was great!
This is great I have not started yet but it looks like what I want to do is podcasting so getting tips and recommendations to further understand the field helps a lot to make the right choices before starting. Thank you!
My brother and I have completed our 1st podcast but we are still trying figure things out. This has helped us out a lot
so helpful. Thank you PAt. Thinking of starting a Podcast, and this is gold xx
I like it - no click bait title, does what it says on the tin, clear and informative. Great stuff !!
I appreciate the work you put into this video, it truly helps. God bless!
We have now been a podcast for almost 6 months, and there are definitely days where it feels like its not working. But, we have never considered quitting, just over a year after this video, and this will be extremely helpful. Thank you!
Keep grinding it'll pop soon. I just started mine and only on Pandora rn
How did it work out?
Don't quit!
Thanks for this video! The time to begin for my podcast is approaching! These are some great tips!
Thanks Pat!!!
Getting ready to launch multiple podcasts and this is definitely helpful thanks!
Thank You Pat Flynn! I going to start a podcast and your advice is so valuable to a beginner. And thanks for the free cheat sheet. I will be watching more of your videos in the future.
thanks bruh... I learned something i'm not expecting...Congo you got one more follower
Thank you for this info Pat!
Super helpful in the planning stage that my friend and I are currently in.
All the best :)
Hi there! Were you able to start your podcast?
My first lesson on this journey I am considering taking which was very helpful thank you - on to more of your content now in the full knowledge that there are no magic wands to build your audience, just persistence, focus and discipline.
Wow 🔥 such great points throughout!! I’m definitely going to keep this in mind
This video helps a lot. Me and my Best friends are going to start a podcast, and you making video like this helps a lot.We appreciate your help. Thanks, keep up the good the amazing work.
Pat, This was so informative and upfront. I am about to start a podcast and your perspective just shifted me in a new lane of thinking! Thanks, Pat
New to CZcams and want to start a podcast and so happy this video popped up in my feed. This was very helpful and I love the honesty.😊 Thank you so much.!
Great tips! thank you so much. I liked the last one about how to encourage people to write reviews.
You’re great, I’ve been watching all your videos. Starting a podcast (launch May 11) and recording episodes now. Thank you and wish me luck!! 🙏☺️
Thanks for these tips, Pat. I'm on my THIRD podcast and STILL looking for ways to get a consistent audience. At this point, I think the "being a guest" tip is probably the best that I haven't tried yet.
I often wonder why anyone would be willing to have a person who isn't famous or popular on their podcast( I am speaking of me)
But that just may be the little inner voice that likes to beat me down that sounds suspiciously like my mother.
@@nunchuckfilms my friend and I just started one, we are planning on having different friends and family in to have them talk about something that’s important to them that they’d like to bring attention to
Just want to say you are awesome. Thank you for the help. Me and my family are starting a new podcast and we're extremely nervous. This helped alot.
Thanks, Pat. Like all you content. Starting a cosmetic dentistry podcast and you are helping immensely.
Thank you for very truthful and realistic explanation on how it works. I encountered all of those points myself, and stuck on them as was not prepared. It is huge illusion that it is a very easy process. You have to be very well equipped with knowledge, hard work and patience to be successful.
Thank you so very much, Pat. I appreciate all of the time and hard work that you given for so many years. Cheers!
Hey Pat - I just watched and for sure, I'm a beginner! Thank you for these 5 tips on podcasts, you've given more confidence already! I also subscribed to your CZcams channel.

2:15: Just Starting a Podcast Does Not Guarantee Listeners
3:25: Creating Content Consistently is Hard
4:40 Social Media is Bad Strategy for Audience Growth

Thank you very much, it's so insightful 😃
Thank you SO much for this video, and I'll be digging deeper into your library for more. My fiance is starting a podcast and we've been lent an entire, giant box of gear which we have zero idea how to use. This podcast gives us a heads-up about avoiding the five pitfalls mentioned. Thanks again!
Hi! Was your fiance able to start his podcast? How is it going?
We are fairly new to the podcast world, this was definitely very helpful! Thanks Pat !!
Thanks for the fresh perspective. So grateful to have come cross your Channel. happy to give 5 star review. Can't wait to listen to your other videos. you have a new subscriber in me.
Great tips, Pat - thanks. We just posted our first podcast today in will definitely keep these in mind!
Thank you for being so complete in what you do that you do not care to share with others. Big help,
Thank you very much for this useful video! We shall definitely keep these tips in mind for our podcast!
Appreciate this, will be sure to remember these thoroughly. God bless
I really appreciate this, Pat! I'm excited to get started.
Thanks Pat, I’m just trying to get started. Planning content and launch.
Thank you. This is very helpful to me especially that I am just new with my podcast.
That's awesome advice, Pat. I will action that on my show - Hey Ryan Podcast Show!!! Big thank you to you for your resources that helped me set up my podcast show which would have been VERY difficult! All thanks to you mister!!!
Hey Pat, just listened to the show, very helpful thank you. I haven't started a podcast yet, but this was very helpful. I will be checking out more of your videos.
Great show Pat. Thank you!! I'm new to podcasting, so this great info.
Thanks man!! God bless you for sharing your wisdom.
Thanks man, we have been trying to push our Podcast for sometime and we got good start but feel like we have been struggling. This was very helpful
Great content, Pat. The tip on asking for a review by sending a video is awesome. Cheers!
I'm just starting, and I started w/you and this podcast on the five things to know. Excellent. Thanks. I'll be in touch.
These are wonderful tips that will definitely help new podcasters avoid reinventing the wheel! I had attempted multiple other podcasts before starting YAP and keeping up with the demand for content is definitely noteworthy for those who want to start their own journey. It requires a lot of research, planning and a great cost of time, but it is WORTH IT! Getting reviews is also GREAT for engagement! Don't doubt the power of a review! Great video Pat :)
I saw you shouting out your reviews at the end of your videos, Hala! Great work!
Thanks for sharing! Reviews are for sure great for engagement!
Love this video so good! I'm trying to start my podcast can't wait! Thanks for your help
Me too! Love to support you whenever you start it up; let me know and I’ll subscribe
thank u for this video. You gave great tips at the end that I will for sure take advantage of when I release my podcast!
The most helpful step I got is the step process. Sending personal videos after having gotten them to reply is something I could apply in my business. Thanks for this video, I'm about starting my podcast journey, this may go a long way, so thanks again.
Thanks Pat. Already hit Podcast Fade. But managed to bounce back and already taking steps to get onto other shows.
Excellent video, thank you! I appreciate it being dead honest, to the point, and short.
Thank you for your great suggestions... Hard to choose but the last one 1 like the most.
Looking forward to your cheat sheet. I just discovered you. Good content here.
Sweet! Going to research more and plan thanks for the advice.
Pat Thanks a lot for posting this video. I have just recently started a podcast and was wondering how I should go about promoting my show and your idea about being a guest on other podcasts to promote my podcast is a great idea I never thought of.
Thanks so much for this video! Very informative! I appreciate people like you who share your knowledge & experience with the world. 🙏 Much appreciated!!!
really helpful I'm new to podcasting. to be honest I'm very nerves in the middle of doing my first. the one thing I'm worrying about is editing. thank you for your advice 😁

So practical and clever ! Im about to start my own podcast interview and Tik tok so this ... Will help me a lot !! Thx from France !^^
