This is a hot take episode because I feel like it needs to be said: Not everyone with a podcast is a podcast coach.

No, I am not gatekeeping! I know many exceptional podcast coaches and strategists who are ultra-qualified. But for each of them, I have heard literally dozens of horror stories about expensive coaches that overpromised and underdelivered, leaving podcasters’ dreams shattered.Today, I am sharing more about who not to hire - and some important questions to ask when you are in the market for a great podcast strategist!

Tune in, leave a review, and email me at support@adodemedia.com to share what you'd like me to cover on the next episode of The Podcast Trapper. Purchase Tickets to Blk pod Festival 2023: http://bit.ly/3vSDDBZ Resources

Today’s podcast guest changed the trajectory of her entire career from healthcare to media with a single leap of faith.

This week I'm joined by Akilah Ffriend, Media Executive and On-air Host for Revolt Original Podcast Monuments to Me .

Akilah has a rich background in marketing and content acquisition at top media companies including Apple TV, HBO Max, NBCU and more; but before this, she thought she'd be in healthcare.Akilah joins me to discuss how she used her content from her independent podcast to land a host role on Revolt, her advice for independent creators to increase our visibility and how we all can position ourselves with our content.

This episode touches on the age old question of "how can I get picked up by major networks". So here's the answers you've been waiting for.

I launched The Podcast Trapper on YouTube and lets just say people were not too happy. From people calling me a racist for launching Blk Pod Collective to people telling me I was fat, it all got quite interesting on this here platform.So this is my response to what people had to say. I did get a little passionate so please don't be offended.

In today’s episode of The Podcast Trapper, I discuss why you should consider niching your podcast, how to choose your niche and some observations I have about niched podcasts from my own experience.

When you niche your podcast, you give your audience what they want and none of what they don’t. A niche helps you set expectations. It’s an amazing tool to help you create content, stay relevant and avoid boring your listeners!

I’ll be sharing some of my favorite questions to ask yourself as a podcaster. These are the questions that I make sure every client at Adode Media Studios gets clear on before they ever hit record!

In this week’s episode of The Podcast Trapper, I discuss something that I hope you’re super familiar with…Podcast listener reports.

If you don’t know about these yet, welcome to the wonderful world of podcast listener data. These stats have great power to us podcast creators. The problem is, these stats are usually…pretty vague. They discuss “podcast listeners” or even “women listeners,” but there is not much detail into which women are tuning in! I know many of us would love to know whether black women, nonbinary people, asian or latina women are consuming your content, right?!

This is important information to us creators, because our culture affects how we listen to content.

Today I’ll be sharing WHY podcast listener data affects your podcast strategy, HOW it could be more diverse and WHAT we can do about it.

This week’s episode of The Podcast Trapper was a little different. I decided to jump into a topic that is absolutely essential….not just for podcasters, but for every entrepreneur ever. Let’s talk about boundaries!

My question for you is this. Are you burnt out? Exhausted? Stressed? Are you doing too much of what you don’t enjoy, and not enough of what you do? Are you constantly toggling between eleven different apps and programs trying to stay on top of everything?

Today I’m sharing my vulnerable thoughts about how I set boundaries in my own business. I strongly encourage you to stop, drop and listen.
