From Blog to Podcast

According to a psychological study, we’re more open to another person’s point-of-view when we hear their words rather than read them. In other words, we’re persuaded more by a person’s voice than by what they write.

If you want to lead a tribe, a blog is a great place to start and a newsletter is a natural next step. But if you want a deep and meaningful connection, there’s nothing more powerful than the human voice – we’re hard-wired for it from an early age.

If you’re blogging, you probably already use LinkedIn, Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or other social media. So adding another channel can feel at best like another obligation, and at worst a distraction.

But you’ve already done the hard part.

By the time you’ve hit Publish, you’ve communicated an idea clearly and concisely, and edited it. That makes transferring it to podcast a low-risk strategy, and the only thing you have to pay for is a mic.

In this easy-to-follow course, I’ll show you how to record each of your blog posts and produce a polished podcast episode in record time, and distribute your podcast to Apple, Spotify, smart speakers, and lots more places. If you’ve published your first blog post, you’re halfway there –  I’ll guide you through the rest.

In this course you’ll learn how to

• Use a USB microphone
• Speak so your words sound like you’re saying them for the first time
• Record your voice using free software
• Trim the beginning and end of your audio
• Handle mistakes
• Upload and publish your episode to the web
