Insider Secrets to a Top 100 Podcast with Courtney Elmer | Podcasting Psychology for Business Growth

What separates today's top podcasts from the ones that go unnoticed? Spoiler alert: It’s not high-quality audio, great content, or "staying consistent." (If that were enough, then every host with a $100+ mic who gives their best stuff away for free would be ranking in the Top 100 every week. And we both know that’s not how it works.)

We’re breaking down over 15,000 hours of study into what today’s top podcasts are doing differently to reveal the exact strategies you need to launch and grow a profitable podcast that listeners can’t ignore.

So, if you're an established coach, consultant, or creator who wants a bingeworthy top podcast that dominates the charts on Apple and Spotify, positions you as the go-to expert in your niche, and drives real business growth — you’ve come to the right place.

As the founder of PodLaunch® and a Forbes-featured Top 1% podcast educator dubbed “The Podcast Whisperer'' by CEO Weekly, Courtney Elmer is known as the leading authority on the psychology behind what makes podcasts succeed (or fail).

By applying the science of human behavior and psychology to podcasting, Courtney and her team have helped more than seventy six- and seven-figure business owners and experts launch and grow Top 100 podcasts that turn listeners into clients.

So, if you’re ready to launch a podcast that actually gets noticed...

Or if your existing podcast is stuck in “less-than-200-downloads-per-episode-jail" no matter how consistently you publish…

Or if you’re tired of Googling "podcasting tips" and listening to other podcasts that preach outdated podcasting advice like “podcasting is a long game” or “just keep showing up”…

And you’re ready to learn the exact strategies you need to get listeners choosing your podcast over the competition, turn those listeners into loyal clients, and use your voice to create meaningful change in the world...

Why Guesting on Podcasts Won’t Grow Your Show (Unless You Do This) | Kelly Mosser

October 30, 2024 • Courtney Elmer | PodLaunch • Episode 284

You’ve probably heard that podcast guesting is a great way to grow your audience — until you try it and end up with the same size audience you had before (and zero ROI to show for it). You’re not the only one. That’s why I invited Hell Yes Media founder and podcast guesting expert Kelly Mosser to break down why your guest appearances aren’t converting into the followers or clients you were counting on — and how to fix it.

In this episode, we’re diving into why most guest interviews won’t actually yield an ROI (especially on the big shows), the biggest mistakes people make when using podcast guesting to grow and get seen, and the magic formula for framing your CTAs so every appearance you do actually translates into audience growth.

So if you're ready to stop wasting time being interviewed on podcasts that don’t convert and start turning every guest spot into more listeners and leads for your business, hit play and let's dive in.
