Episode Details

Ever wonder if YouTube could be the missing piece to getting your podcast in front of more people? With its massive user base and undeniable searchability, it sounds tempting — but is it really worth the extra effort?

In this episode, I’m joined by Erika Vieira, who’s coached thousands of business owners and podcasters to build profitable YouTube channels. Together, we dig into the upsides of this search engine powerhouse (hello, 2.9 billion users) and the downsides that come with it, because spoiler: it’s not as simple as connecting your RSS feed or uploading the lightly edited video from your latest interview and hoping for the best.

If you’re ready to find out whether YouTube is worth the effort for your podcast, hit play and let’s make your business bingeworthy.
