If you suffer from “imposter syndorme” (why would anyone listen to my show?), if you hate the sound of your own voice, if you don’t have a large budget for equipment, if fear of what people might think or say about your podcast is stopping your from launching then this message is just for you. Here’s why…
I can help you create a great sounding podcast that will position you as an expert in your field. I can help you do this while spending less an Xbox gaming system. I can make sure that you never look stupid.
My podcast about podcasting has been downloaded over 1 million downloads, and has been featured in the “What's Hot” Section of iTunes and been received multiple nominations for podcast awards. I can help you do the same.
And you need to realize, there is a cost to not dealing with this…
The Longer You Wait to Launch, The More Opportunities You Miss
What most people do when lacking the confidence to start podcasting is they listen to podcasts, watch YouTube, read outdated books and outdated articles on the Internet. But for most people, none of that works.
They often think they have to spend large thousands on equipment (you don't).
They quit before they get to episode 8 because their workflow is complicated (I can take the pain out of content gathering).
They miss the daily opportunities to grow your audience the longer you wait.
Much like a recipe, you don’t know if the recipe is any good until you cook it. You can read about podcasting for weeks (in some cases YEARS) but won’t know if you’re any good until you press record. You can learn to podcast by reading about it. You need to take action.
And what happens if you just do nothing?
If you just keep doing what you’ve been doing? You get frustrated. This hurts your self-confidence which then fuels your imposter syndrome and negative thinking. It snowballs and you eventually give up on your dream of inspiring, entertaining, and educating your audience. Opportunity lost.
How I Discovered the Best Path to Pain Free Podcasting
I’ve got an answer that works. Here’s the story: I started off a shy teenager grocery clerk who got fired for being too shy and not talking to customers (so I completely understand “Imposter syndrome” and not having confidence). A teacher told me to “Act the way you want to be, and someday you will be the way you act.” Through the years I’ve applied this and I know it works. When I started my podcast, there were other “Gurus” in my genre and I was intimidated. I pushed forward and started my podcast, I got guests I thought I’d never get on my show, and a short period later the “Gurus” were asking me to be on their podcasts. I was asked to speak at events because I was seen as the expert in my field.
The road to podcast success had its ups and downs.
I purchased the wrong equipment and used the wrong software. At first, I had “not so great” audio quality.
That’s good for you as I can help you avoid the same pitfalls, and keep your money in your wallet.
You can avoid having a drawer full of microphones that you don't use. I've done it for you.
Over the years I’ve been hired because I knew how to podcast. I’ve been able to interview people who would never give me the time of day (but did because I had a podcast). I’ve made money recommending products I use. I've grown a successful consulting business. I served as the Director of Podcasting for the New Media Expo. I got the Director of Podcasting job because the head of the expo asked some experts who to hire – and everyone he asked listened to my podcast.

My True Story
The New Media Expo was the largest event for Bloggers, Video, and Podcasters. They needed a new director for the Podcasting track. The owner went to the top three podcast media hosts and asked who they would recommend to fill the position. They all answered the same thing"
"What do you think about Dave Jackson?"
I couldn't have planned it better and I got the gig. My podcast had worked as a digital business card.
I've been asked to speak. I've been hired on additional jobs because of my podcast experience.
I've been asked to work on projects because I'm seen as someone who has influence.
I received phone calls from people who say things like, "I just listened to your last 50 episodes and I'm ready to start a podcast and you are my guy

What Podasting Has Done For Others:
Emily Morse had her show “Sex with Emily” picked up on FM Radio. She has also had a television show on Bravo.
Joanna Pen started off interviewing experts on book publishing, and now she is one.
Keith and the Girl make a living doing a podcast out of their apartment in New York City.
Marc Maron was able to interview the President of the United States in his Garage.
Comedians are Selling More Tickets and booking bigger clubs because of a stronger connection with their audience.
People are getting speaking gigs because they are seen as an expert.
Consultants are getting more clients (without cold calling) because their audience already knows, likes, and trusts them.

How Podcasting Works
You immerse yourself in your target audience and topic(s)
You create a show that focuses on those topics that positively impacts your audience. You share insights from your life that apply to the topics. Your audience likes your.
Your deliver value in every episode. Now your audience trusts you.
You deliver on a regular schedule. Now your audience trusts and relies on you. You become part of their routine.
So you know your audience knows, likes, and trusts, you. You become a trusted friend. You have established a relationship with your listener that you can leverage. When people make money with your podcast keep this in mind.
You don't make money from the podcast, you make money from the relationship that you build through the podcast.

My Previous Best Month is Now My Average
Within a couple of months of launching we had an event where we ended up with 65 of our listeners to hangout and have an awesome time. We sold tickets to that event to directly monetize the podcast. By being in someone’s ears for 45 minutes a its made a significance to my bottom line. It’s enabled me to open up different services, it’s allowed me to bring on more staff, it’s really catapulted my business forward. What use to be my best month, is now my average

Pat Flynn Grew His Audience by 19%
“If you just stick to your blog, you’re going to limit your reach. The growth of the blog started to plateau. It wasn’t growing and I wanted to reach more people.
When I surveyed my audience what was the #1 way they found me? Not Google, not Twitter or Facebook. It was iTunes and my podcast.
There is no connection like hearing someone’s voice. Big brands know this, that’s why people like Dave Ramsey and Suze Orman adding podcasting.

I Want to Flatten the Learning Curve For You
I recently helped a client who had her podcast listed in iTunes. She had been driving people to her show for six months. The bad news, is she had given the wrong link. Her six months of hard work went right down the drain.
I had a client on m Podcast Review show who had "jumped in" to podcast. They do a daily show, and started off by recording 365 episodes (one for each day). What they didn't know is there was a technical issue with their recording.
[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type="1_3"][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label="Row"][et_pb_column type="4_4"][et_pb_text admin_label="Text" background_layout="light" text_orientation="left" use_border_color="off" border_color="#ffffff" border_style="solid"]
I help people on a monthly (weekly?) basis who have tried using free services and have found they they are getting what they pay for. The bad news is they are tied to these services and can't leave without losing their audience. Again, months, (maybe years), go down the drain.
I help people avoid spending money (lots of money) on equipment on recording equipment you will not need.
I could go on but I think you get my point.
I stop people from being banned from user groups because they don't know the rules of Forums.
Is this information on the Internet for free? Probably. It's also outdated? Probably. You will pay for things with one of two currencies: time or money. Your time is too valuable to go find an answer to a question only to find it's been outdated for four years.
