    Thanks for this video. I just started doing video podcast instead of just audio only and I got over my fear. I'm still very nervous but I keep going. I love it. ❤️ Great tips! 👍

    I have to take the time to tell you how amazing this video is. It’s real, it’s relatable and it’s valuable. It’s not the repeated, bullet point, cliches that most videos give. They seem robotic and this video is human. Awesome

    No one has the magic formula, its all hindsignt is 20/20 story. Do content 'coz you have something to share, 'coz you enjoy doing it and in style that is authentic to you that is the only thing sustainable.

    @therosspalmer Před 8 měsíci +2

    Great ideas, I've done all that for years and still have negligible downloads. I've actually experienced the opposite: podcast clips don't seem to perform well as shorts/reels anymore, but original videos do much better. YMMV I guess, but it's still a well-made video!

    • @NoSetPathShow
      @NoSetPathShow Před 6 měsíci

      I’ve had the same experience! I’ve only been podcasting for 9 months but the video components have done nothing for my podcast listens, even when they’ve gone a bit viral and gained me followers on those other platforms. I just had a TikTok clip do over 200k views and it translated to a massive 7 new downloads on the podcast episode 🤷🏼‍♀️ it makes me wonder if I should be prioritizing TikTok instead of podcasting because I can monetize so much faster

    Thanks for the tips, The growth is really slow but with each episode I’m learning new things and always trying to improve, I even made my first trailer for episode 13 and reworked all the lighting and post production as I had made some terrible choices previously with being new to the video side of podcasts but currently views are down on that one so far 😆 however I think if I keep on this path of improvement overtime the growth will follow, hopefully 😆 Good luck to everyone starting out too🙏 😎

    If you exaggerate who you are, isn't that being inauthentic to who you really are in everyday life?

      Only if you stay the same as you are. The idea is to exaggerate yourself into improvement and change. To become something you’re not.

      With Riverside.fm you can record audio and video in one session. They also released a new feature allowing you to edit your video and audio like a word doc. Your mind is looking for obstacles instead of solutions. Work on your mindset! 💪🏽❤️ ( more work)

    You put it nicely when you said the dreaded thing” record a video” and then you hit the nail on the coffin when you mentioned “TikTok” I honestly don’t want to change my podcast style to this way, as it’s not about me or my personality, my podcast doesn’t not fit within the visual medium and so I dread TikTok and Snapchat. If you know Lore or Myth and Legends, this what my podcast is similar too. It’s a grind honestly but I have passion for what I do and even with the burnout and not getting returns for my huge investment, it’s still worth it and enjoyable. Thanks for the tips though!

    My audio editing is so meticulous that it wouldn’t work with a video edit, as it would be ridiculously choppy. I envy people who can podcast and be on camera without making too many mistakes. I agree a video strategy is a benefit, but I just can’t see it working for me. You can finesse the “reality” of what happened in audio so much easier than with video.
