We're 14 episodes in and just broke 2800 all-time downloads and hit our best month ever in July. Keep pushing everyone and feel free to share your shows!
Our podcast is on breakthrough innovations in healthcare. I'd say we've really tried to push the show through connections of guests, and that's been a major help. @@jimwest5027
I am currently trying to write the script for my very first episode (hardest task for a long time) and I can fully appreciate the loneliness that you must feel. Could it be an idea to use Instagram or similar to promote the episodes and have the dialogue and feedback there ?
Absolutely! Utilize a clear CTA to encourage your listeners to share feedback on social channels or leave reviews on your preferred podcast directories. An excellent way to engage your audience and grow your show.
I'd be interested in knowing which program you're using for interviewing Ross. This definitely is 10X the quality of Zoom. This is one reason why I haven't put my podcast interviews on my regular RUclips channel because the quality of the video is very poor. What are you using?
Haha, I used to have one of those! It's actually a vertical bookcase, but the way it's setup you never see the super thin shelves. Here's the one I used to have on Amazon: www.amazon.com/SEI-Furniture-Metal-Spine-Tower/dp/B071RYN6MH/
Another great interview! Bravo Ross, I like you have lived a double or triple life. I was a cop by day and standup comedian by night. Writer, actor, producer. keep creating great content.
Totally agree, as a solo podcaster the lack of feedback from listeners is quite deafening. And thank you for another good video from Buzzsprout. Just subscribed Smells Like Human, so, looking forward to tucking into that on my down times.
The comment section is why I tried so hard to get into RUclips despite not being interested in making video content. I really wish there was a social media aspect to some podcast platforms, discussions on episodes etc. I just moved to Spotify and the quality of listener is much better, but I feel like I have to use twitter and instagram which…meh
@@UntangledKnots yes 👍 you totally get it. I've just started doing YT on my business channel for that single reason, but, damn when I do a video - obviously the production time goes up massively. Works out 4:30 on the days I do my podcast, video and a short. Funny enough a 60 second short takes me longer to do than long form video or my podcast. For insta, Tiktok and Twitter I just dump up the footage from what I did for YT. I'm going to have to employ someone to do all my editing as it's getting too much, especially as I want to do it Monday through to Friday, as I do a daily workday podcast and whilst that content is in my mind I can transfer it over to video.
We've been hovering around 40k to 50k a month. Now trying to think of new ways to get to move listeners. It's like the old Radio Shack free battery club. People are more likely to buy if they come into the store. :D lol free food is free food.
I really appreciated hearing your ad promo. I like how you talked about the show and had basically two calls to actions. Not just a "hey this is me," but also, "please listen to the podcast." Very helpful.
Alban is using a Sony ZV-E10 with a Sigma 16mm 1.4 lens. If you want to go deeper we highly recommend checking out www.youtube.com/@tombuck/ who has a great channel on gear! (He's also the one that gave Alban those recommendations).
@@Buzzsprout I use the Sigma 16mm lens myself and love it on my Canon M50 mirrorless. Bravo. Yes your lighting is great, I use two neewar lights, one on me somewhat direct, and one higher as a hair light. I'm loving Buzzsprout.
Thank you for this fantastic interview, it gives me great ideas to help us to reach out to new listeners! And to echo what Ross said, the team at Buzzsprout has been amazing in supporting us and answering our questions. I am pretty sure some of my questions since our first podcast last November rank in the top 10 clueless!!!
I loved this episode. It's very helpful to hear Ross's experience. It was great to hear his actual promo. It gave me some ideas. And I will check out your show Ross. And come on over for dinner. How far are you from Connecticut?
This has helped me a lot! I just started my podcast. I purchased the lowest block of ads because I just wanted to see. But I agree. I want to build my audience up more
We use Riverside.fm for all of our remote interviews, whether they're audio only or video. If you want to learn more about them they have an awesome RUclips channel: www.youtube.com/@Riversidefm
Thanks for the encouragement. As someone just starting out and incessantly checking downloads, its good to hear some of the same issues from a podcaster who has been through it.
So glad you found this episode helpful! If you have other podcasting questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to email us at support@buzzsprout.com. All the best and keep podcasting!
How was this recorded? I am fairly new to this, but i have heard of services like riverside, where you can record interviews with both audio and video.

Off-topic I know. Does anyone notice the thin column of books stacked so high right behind him? Haha. Amazed it stands!
JENGA!

Would make a great blooper video 🤣if they fell

Your comment is what will make me listen
This was great, thanks for always sharing such helpful content!
A technical question...what kind of light and video setup are you using for the Buzzsprout side of things on this interview? It looks great!
Alban is using a Sony ZV-E10 with a Sigma 16mm 1.4 lens. If you want to go deeper we highly recommend checking out www.youtube.com/@tombuck/ who has a great channel on gear! (He's also the one that gave Alban those recommendations).

Both look like they are side lit by window light in this video.
Thank you for this fantastic interview, it gives me great ideas to help us to reach out to new listeners!

We're 10 episodes in to our new podcast and this is the first week where we've lacked motivation so thank you for this epsiode!
Great intreview, been speaking to Ross for a while about his campaigns and great to hear see him explain in more details.
I won't monetize anything until my show achieves at the minimum a few thousand views.
Let's go! Let us know once you hit your goal!
@@Buzzsprout currently sitting at zero so it will be a while.
I am a solo podcaster and I work full time. I've been looking at ways to grow my podcast as I do it as a hobby .
What is your podcast?
I loved this episode. It's very helpful to hear Ross's experience. It was great to hear his actual promo. It gave me some ideas. And I will check out your show Ross. And come on over for dinner. How far are you from Connecticut?
Omw
Hahah we got one!
Phenomenal interview! I really enjoy podcasts like The Light Stand and The Basement with Tim Ross. Great content for the soul ❤
This has helped me a lot! I just started my podcast.
I purchased the lowest block of ads because I just wanted to see.
But I agree. I want to build my audience up more
That's great to know, Justin! Let us know how it goes. All the best to you and to your show!
Great conversation. What video platform do you guys use for this kind of interviews?
We use Riverside.fm for all of our remote interviews, whether they're audio only or video.

Thanks so much. I thought it was Riverside. I think your guest my have had an excellent video setup as his video looks really high quality.
Thanks for the encouragement. As someone just starting out and incessantly checking downloads, its good to hear some of the same issues from a podcaster who has been through it.
Hey, you got this, Dave! 💪 Keep it going!
Great interview, thank you!
I'm about 5 episodes in and really needed this episode! I hope I can gain some new followers and listeners along the way!

Thank you so much for all your podcasts, you've made my ideas and plans grow easier and faster.....
Delighted to know that, Esther. Keep it going. You got this! Happy podcasting!
Great interview and Info!
Thank you, Chris!
Curious what platform you use to record episodes?
Hey Sharyn! We personally like Squadcast and Riverside anytime we are recording a long-distance video.
This was really helpful. Thank you!
You are most welcome! Thanks for watching!
Hi, I have also started podcasting. I tell classic stories, read them to my listeners, that is, if somebody actually tunes in to listen to the show!
How was this recorded? I am fairly new to this, but i have heard of services like riverside, where you can record interviews with both audio and video.
Hello! Thanks for checking out the video! We personally like Squadcast and Riverside anytime we are recording a long-distance video.
@@Buzzsprout Thx. I find Squadcast a little pricey (40 usd/month) if you want to record video
My first question is to ask what platforms you used to record this podcast?
Riverside!
