The Trick To Maintaining Motivation For Your Brand New Podcast [S3E55F]

Guest host: https://www.linkedin.com/in/timothyjamesdesmond/ (Tim Desmond) of the podcast https://revolutionfi.com/ (RevolutionFI). Have you ever felt like you're shouting into the wind? Every podcaster knows the excitement around starting a new podcast. And every podcaster also knows the depressive feeling that comes from looking at barren stats of a just-launched podcast.  So how do you stay motivated? How do you keep up the effort when you don’t have thousands of fans out of the gate? Even if you’ve been podcasting for years, every new show starts you off again at zero listeners, especially if you’re podcasting in a different industry and niche than your previous work. You've probably read that new podcasts don't make it past seven episodes. You know it's a slow build to have your show find its audience. But still, it’s hard to keep motivated.  Tim’s advice? Think of your dismally small audience - maybe 50 downloads of that first episode - as if they were real people. If 50 people showed up in a library or a coffee shop to hear you speak, that’d be enough to give many people stage fright! Even better: If you do your job with your new podcast, those 50 people will come back to hear you talk every day or every week. And if they really love your content, they’re going to bring more people with them next time. So instead of focusing on that stark, tiny number in your podcast hosting company’s dashboard, think about the real people who are downloading and listening to your episodes.
