Here are 6 reasons content creators are getting burned out - especially if the create social media tutorials.

1. You need to have a high level of expertise

2. Deciding between doing a talking-head video or recording your screen

3. No one wants to watch the boring part

4. how do we know exactly where people are getting stuck

5. Platforms keep making changes

6. Your content can't be evergreen which keeps you on a hamster wheel

There has never been a better time to be a Podcaster. All of the major players online are listening to us, catering to us, and suddenly audio is the new black.

People like you and me believed in the power of Audio content long ago. It almost seems weird to us that the rest of the world is finally beginning to catch on. We know that podcasting (especially indie - podcasting) is a way to get our message across without fear of retribution. There are no "bosses", no gatekeepers, no government regulators, standing in between our message, our voice and our audience.

Now here come all the mega - platforms jumping on the bandwagon.

First we got Clubhouse - and that was all fine because it was meant to be ephemeral content. “Social audio” (I’m using air quotes) suddenly became a hot topic.

SHARE YOUR FEEDBACK:

Take the poll and answer the Q&A on Spotify

As informed podcasters, we want our podcasts listed in every directory but the problem with this is, it makes it hard to find a place where your listeners can find your show across all of the apps that they might use to listen to and follow your podcast.

What you really need is one page where you can list all of these options for your listeners, but it’s hard to do this because there are so many different apps out there. Listeners can be annoyed or even frustrated when their podcast listening app of choice is hard to find. This is not a very effective way to grow your show and get more loyal listeners!

In this episdose I share two tools that offer Smart Links that auto-open Podcast Apps and make it easier than ever before to get new listeners for your podcast.
