Most podcasts lose listeners in the first 15 seconds. Not after the first ad. Not halfway into the episode. Right at the start. In this episode, we break down what’s actually happening in your listener’s brain the moment they hit play, and why top po... more

Love this podcast mainly for three reasons: Courtney has a great voice to listen to; the information is direct, succinct, clear and polished, not rambling like so many podcasts these days; and they’re usually under 20 minutes in length. I wish I could afford the coaching but listening to these episodes feels like the next best thing.
My appetite for podcasts is legendary. I subscribe to a lot of different shows in a lot of different genres. But there are very few that get me to hit play immediately on publish. This show is one of those rare shows that I can’t get enough of! You can tell that the host is super knowledgeable and genuinely wants to help people get their podcasts found. I wish I could give it more than 5 stars….its that good! Do yourself a favor and listen to this show if you are interested in getting your show ... more
This show is hands down the best podcast about podcasting out there. And as and a member of the PodLaunch Community, I’m so grateful for the impact Courtney’s mentorship has had on my own show. Thanks to the PodLaunch program, I was able to relaunch my show, Parents Making Time, and debut at #56 in the Apple Top 100 in the parenting category. I could not have done that without PodLaunch!
Courtney gets it. Her podcast is packed with real, practical advice that works and she has a way of explaining things that makes you feel like you can take action right away - and you can! I’ve picked up so many tips that I’ve been able to use the same day I heard them.
Being in her PodLaunch program has been a total game changer for me. I finally have a clear plan for my show, a crystal-clear focus on my audience and I'm no longer just reacting to trends and outreach from potential guests. Th... more
Just stumbled across this podcast and the timing couldn’t have been better since I just started my podcast. I’ve had so many ‘Ohhhhhh , that’s what I need to change’ moments in just a few episodes. Thanks for not gatekeeping important tips for us newbies.
