Insider Secrets to a Top 100 Podcast | Podcasting, Marketing, Psychology
Unlike other podcasts about podcasting that only cover the basics like tech and logistics, here you won't find the kind of podcasting tips you can get on Google.
Because if high-quality audio, publishing valuable episodes every week, and "staying consistent" was the secret to a profitable top podcast, then that would mean everyone who spent over $100 on a mic and gives their best stuff away for free in every episode would be ranking in the Top 100 every week — and we both know that's not the case.
So if you're a coach, consultant, or online expert who wants to start a podcast that actually gets noticed (or if you've already launched but you’re still getting less than 1k downloads per episode and aren’t converting as many leads as you want) you're in the right place.
As a Forbes-featured Top 1% podcast host who's been 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). After spending more than four years studying what separates successful podcasts from the ones that go unnoticed, Courtney and her team have helped over 60+ business owners and experts rank their podcasts in the Top 100 and turn their show into their #1 source of organic leads by applying the science of human behavior and psychology to podcasting.
Ready to learn what separates today's top podcasts from the ones that go unnoticed so you can create a bingeworthy show that people are actually excited to listen to, rank your podcast in the charts every week, reach a global audience with your message, and convert more listeners into clients and customers? Hit play and let's dive in.
Guests Include: Jordan Harbinger, John Lee Dumas, Gay Hendricks, Hal Elrod, Alex Sanfilippo, Adam Adams, Grant Baldwin, Josh Elledge, Deirdre Tshien, Brandon Lucero, James Wedmore, Kate Northrup, Stacy Tuschl, Katherine Beck, Jennifer Kem, Sara Wiles, Kate Erickson, and more.
Popular Episode Topics Include: Starting a Podcast, Growing a Podcast, Increasing Listener Engagement, Creating Bingeworthy Podcast Content, Ranking Your Podcast in The Top 100, Podcast Launch Strategy, Podcast Monetization Strategies, Podcast Messaging, Podcast Positioning, Podcast Audience Growth
- 237 - Steal My High-Converting Episode Framework
The biggest complaint I hear from experts who are using their podcast as a lead-gen tool is this:
"No matter how much valuable content I give away for free in every episode, I still can't get listeners to convert to leads!"
I get it, because I was once there too. You started your podcast to get more eyeballs on your business and your offers. And it's ridiculously frustrating to spend hours creating every episode only to have listeners tell you they love your show (but never ask how to work with you).
After spending over 500+ hours studying what separates successful podcasts from the ones that fail (and helping 60+ business owners launch a Top 100 podcast that turns listeners into high-ticket clients), I've found there are three reasons why this happens...
And inside this episode, I'm breaking down you're struggling to convert your listeners to leads from your podcast and show you how to create real desire and demand for whatever it is you offer... without having to give away everything you teach for free.
Ready to find out why you're not converting as many listeners as you want to be and fix this problem once and for all? Hit play and let's dive in.

Wed, 15 May 2024 - 236 - Q + A: The Pros and Cons of Subscription-Based Podcast Content
Ever wonder whether you should offer subscription-based bonus content on your podcast? Well, you're not alone.

→ "Will offering a paid podcast subscription help me increase listener engagement?"
→ "Do paid podcast subscriptions count toward (or take away from) my total podcast downloads?"
→ "How much can I ~really~ make from offering a paid podcast subscription?"...and more... Ready to find out if offering your listeners a paid podcast subscription is right for your podcast? Hit play and let's dive in.

Wed, 08 May 2024 - 234 - 4 Signs Listeners are Overlooking Your PodcastTell me if this sounds familiar...
→ You publish at least one new podcast episode every week without fail... but you’re still getting less than 1000 downloads per episode (despite doing literally everything the experts say you need to do to grow your show)
→ People tell you they love your podcast but no one has left a review on your show in the last 30 days
→ You check your analytics dashboard every week but haven't seen a significant increase in downloads or listens in the last three months
→ Even though you know the content you share in every episode is highly valuable, only one or two listeners have ever reached out asking how to work with you
If you're like, UM YES THIS IS ME, then you've probably also been told that that podcasting is a long game and that you just need to stay consistent and give it more time.
But have you ever asked yourself why it's not working? ... there's a reason why.
And after helping over 95% of our clients break the Top 100 in their categories, we've found it's often because your podcast is missing something called a "core differentiator" . Or in other words, a way of communicating to your listener why your show is the one they need to listen to.
We both know you're here to add real value and make meaningful change in people's lives. So to save you 4+ years of figuring this out the hard way like I did, I recorded this episode for you. :)

Fri, 03 May 2024 - 233 - Getting Zero Engagement from Repurposed Podcast Content? Here's Why.
You've likely heard of content repurposing—taking your podcast episodes and converting them into bite-sized clips to share on short-form platforms.
In theory, it's supposed to help you expand your reach and drive traffic back to your podcast.
But in reality? You're spending hours scouring through endless AI-generated clips, adding flashy effects and captions, and maybe even splurging on expensive apps or video editing services... at the expense of all the other things you need to do in your business (you know, like sales and client delivery).
What's worse is that you have zero way of knowing if all this work is doing anything to drive traffic back to your podcast. (not much, from the looks of your 30-day downloads).
So if you're over-posting podcast video clips to social media (or heck, throwing the whole episode up on YouTube), only to get a couple hundred views and no likes or comments — this episode is for you.
I'm breaking down three reasons your content repurposing efforts are falling flat. Plus you'll learn three uncommon strategies the pros use to create viral podcast content that commands attention and gets people excited to listen to your show.
Ready to ditch the guesswork and hit "post" knowing your content will be effective? Hit play and let's dive in.

Wed, 01 May 2024 - 232 - How to Create a Podcast Brand Your Listeners Can’t Ignore | Tonya Eberhart, Michael Carr
Most people think today’s top podcasters are successful because they have a massive audience, a professional audio setup, and this seemingly effortless ability to pump out high-quality content daily.
Those things can help, but when you think of successful podcasts like "Serial" or "The Joe Rogan Experience”, it’s not ~just~ the audio quality or even the content itself that draws people in and keeps them coming back for more.
(If that were true, then everyone with a $100+ mic who releases high-quality episodes every week would be in the Top 100 and we both know that’s not the case).
But, all Top 100 podcasts DO have four things in common — and one of the most important? A strong podcast brand that compels listeners to choose *your* show over others like yours.
But podcast branding is much more than cover art and a catchy show title. Which is why I invited co-hosts Tonya Eberhart and Michael Carr of the top ranked Be Bold Branding podcast to join me in this episode so we can help you nail the invisible elements of your podcast brand and create a show listeners can’t ignore.
Ready to learn the first steps you need to build a powerful podcast brand that commands attention? Hit play and let’s dive in.

Fri, 26 Apr 2024 - 231 - Q + A: Why Imitating Other Hosts Won't Help You Grow Your Podcast
If watching other successful hosts and imitating what they do was the secret to a successful podcast, then everyone who's mirrored another successful host would have a Top 100 podcast… and we both know that's not the case.
But how exactly *do* you steer clear of the Podcast Comparison Trap when it feels like other podcasts are the only benchmark for measuring your show's success?
In this eye-opening episode of Listener Q + A, we’ll unpack why the Podcast Comparison Trap happens, the 5 telltale signs that listeners are overlooking your show, and how embracing your own expertise and distinct voice will help you position your show to stand out amidst the noise of the crowded podcasting landscape.

Fri, 19 Apr 2024 - 229 - My Most Embarrassing Moment as a Podcaster
There I was, crying over my analytics dashboard at 10:42 AM. I'd just released my 16th episode and I still hadn’t enrolled a single new client from my podcast.
I came *this close* to throwing my mic in the garbage and giving up on this whole podcasting thing (and honestly? I have no clue what stopped me). But now looking back, I’m so glad I stuck with it.
I made three surprising mistakes that caused me to struggle more than I needed to during my first year of podcasting, and I’m breaking down what those three mistakes are inside this episode so that you can avoid them too.
So if you’re someone who publishes at least one episode every week without fail but you’re still getting less than 1000 downloads per episode, or if people tell you they love your podcast but no one is buying, hit play and let’s dive in.

Wed, 17 Apr 2024 - 228 - Here's What Launching a Podcast Looks Like | Rachel Provan
I hear so many people say that starting a podcast is easy. (Sigh. If only.)
Let’s be real — if starting a successful podcast was based on finding time to record and hitting publish on a new episode once a week, you would've made it happen six months ago.

Wed, 10 Apr 2024 - 226 - The Best (and Worst) Ways to Use AI for Your Podcast | Manuj Aggarwal
With the rise of AI, listeners are becoming more skilled than ever at telling the difference between what’s real and what’s fake.
Which means that if AI is the sum total of all human wisdom and you’re copy/pasting content from the same tools that every other podcast host is using — you run the risk of sounding like everyone else.
And if you want to be seen as a real thought leader, the LAST thing you want is for your listeners to think you aren’t who you say you are.
That’s why global tech founder and AI expert Manuj Aggarwal is back in the studio with me to share the number one way you can teach AI to sound like you, so you can reap its benefits ~without~ compromising your authentic voice. Hit play and let’s dive in.

Fri, 05 Apr 2024 - 225 - The Future of AI for Podcasting | Manuj Aggarwal
A human wrote this. (hey, it needed to be said).
Look, in today's AI-driven world I KNOW it's tempting to use technology to streamline your processes. But to what extent should you be using AI for your podcast? And is AI actually harming your show’s ability to attract new listeners?
Put it this way: there'll only ever be one true Picasso. And just like an art expert can spot what's real and what's fake, it's crucial to maintain your podcast's unique identity amid the flood of AI-generated content. Because guess who's becoming the new decoders of authenticity? Yup. Your listeners.
But instead of trading dollars for priceless works of art, they're trading something even more valuable: their time. And they don't want to spend it listening to impersonators. (YOU are the real deal - I know that. But it's your listeners we have to convince.)
So I asked global tech founder and AI expert, Manuj Aggarwal, to join me in this episode to discuss how you can use AI without losing your authentic voice.
Because in a Black Mirror world where everything is a simulation, being real is the new priceless. (Okay fine, so Mastercard won't be hiring me anytime soon.)
But if you're ready to learn how you can streamline your podcast production without sounding like everyone else who's *also* uploading their episode content into the same AI tools, THAT I can help with. Hit play and let's dive in.

And let's be real, Google and YouTube aren't exactly serving up fresh insights when you search for “how to choose a podcast category” either — not to mention, the info that does exist? already out of date.
But not to worry, because in this episode I’ll show you three immutable ways to pick the perfect podcast category for your show, and walk you through a simple self-audit you can do today so more people can find your podcast.

Fri, 29 Mar 2024 - 223 - The Down & Dirty Truth About Episode Length
Okay... what's up with these hosts who love to talk like they're determined to rival Tolstoy with their marathon episodes? (looking at you, Joe Rogan 👀)
There's this trend going on right now where 39% of episodes are clocking in over 40 minutes. But that doesn't mean listeners are listening that long.
So basing your episode length off some random google search for "how long should my episodes be" or copying other hosts and making your episodes as long as theirs might actually be causing you to lose listeners.
The perfect episode length ultimately comes down to your listener's specific preferences — which is why inside this episode, I'm going to you how to figure out exactly how long *your* episodes should be based on your unique listener data.

You get a new review every month or two. People tell you they love listening to your show. But… you’re still getting nowhere NEAR the number of leads you thought you’d be getting by now from your podcast. (And for the ridiculous amount of time and energy podcasting takes, you want to be reaching thousands of people — not talking to yourself in an empty room!)

The podcasting industry has changed a lot in the 4+ years I’ve been podcasting. The question is, are you changing along with it? This is why I invited Josh Elledge to join me inside this episode to talk about the biggest mistakes to avoid when it comes to integrating a podcast in your marketing strategy, and the number one thing you need to be doing with your podcast right now if your goal is growth.
And surprisingly? It’s not at all what you’d expect — but it’s going to be more important than ever so you don’t get left behind as the podcasting landscape continues to evolve and grow. Hit play and let’s dive in.

Tue, 27 Feb 2024 - 215 - If Your Podcast Isn't Converting Listeners to Leads, This Could Be Why

The impact of nonverbal communication on your listener engagementHow unconscious sounds in your voice can repel listeners without you realizing itWhy your beliefs and thoughts can impact the way your voice is receivedA behind-the-scenes look at my own journey from struggling to hit six figures to being named among the top 1% of all podcasts globally simply by learning how to use my voice more effectively (and how you can do the same)If you want a podcast that's worthy of being in the Top 100 and make meaningful change in the world through your voice, hit play and let’s dive in.

I don't mean that you somehow got forgotten at the back of the line the day God was handing out angelic voices. I'm talking about how your audience might be tuning you out because of something they're picking up on inyour God-given voice.
Anxiety? They can sense it.
Self doubt? They can hear it.

Tue, 20 Feb 2024 - 214 - Running Out of Episode Ideas? Here's What to Do.
You know that feeling when it's the day before your next podcast episode is supposed to air and you find yourself staring at the keyboard wondering "Omg... what on earth am I going to talk about?!"
I used to HARDCORE STRUGGLE with coming up with fresh content ideas on my topic when it felt like I'd already talked about everything under the sun — multiple times.
I had no clue that I was approaching it totally the wrong way, though.
Too often, podcast hosts (our clients included) think they have to resign themselves to the fact that coming up with content ideas after you've spent 142 episodes talking about everything there is to know about your topic is gonna be a soul-sucking slog from there on out.
When, really, your case of podcaster's block is actually caused by something else altogether (and once you realize what it is, you're gonna be like "Oh OKAY I can't believe I didn't see it before.”)
Trust me: creating a podcast that's FUN for you + interesting for your listener is about to get a whoooole lot easier. And once you see it, you'll be cranking out podcast episodes like the Energizer Bunny on steroids. Or with the peak energy of my six year old at 5:30 am every morning.
If you want to know my secret sauce for obliterating podcaster's block anytime it tries to rear its ugly head, hit play and let’s dive in.Have a question you want me to answer on air? Shoot me a text!

Tue, 13 Feb 2024 - 213 - Why You Don't Need a Big Audience to Have a Profitable Podcast
“Do I need a big audience to be successful with a podcast?”
It’s the question that keeps every aspiring podcaster up at night, and I get why — they see all these top podcasters with hundreds of thousands of followers on social media (and an email list worth envying) and assume that to be successful with a podcast, they need that too.In fact most people think that people like Amy Porterfield and Tim Ferris and heck, Joe-freakin-Rogan are successful podcasters because they had a big audience when they started their show.
But nope. It's actually the other way around.
Being ultra-successful with a podcast isn’t about how big your audience is when you start. It's about knowing how to differentiate yourself to attract the right audience *so that*you can grow.
If you have a podcast right now that's not growing like you expected it to (OR) if you’re someone who wants to start a podcast this year and make sure it's successful from the jump...
You’re going to need to know what levers to pull to make sure your show stands out and gets the attention it deserves.
And in this episode, I'm breaking down the first step to doing exactly that. Hit play and let’s dive in.

Tue, 06 Feb 2024 - 212 - From 30 to 1000+ Downloads in One Day With This Simple Shift
Is your podcast still bringing in fewer than 1000 downloads per episode? Do you want to start a podcast andavoidhitting the painful plateaus most podcasters hit by Episode 6?
I hate to break it to you, but waiting around to hit that 1000+ downloads-per-episode milestone is the very thing keeping your podcast stuck.
Most hosts think, “As long as I’m consistent, my show will grow in time.”
But if the average show only brings in ~2000 total downloads per year, the REAL question is: how many years are you willing to work to finally start seeing the results you want? (No wonder most hosts quit after Episode 6.)
In this episode, we’re going behind the scenes of a recent client launch to show you one surprisingly simple shift that took this client from averaging ~30 dnl/episode to over 1000+/dnl per episode in a single day (and how you can too).

Tue, 06 Sep 2022 - 138 - What Does it (Really) Mean to Run Your Business on Autopilot?
Did you start your online business with the dream of being your own boss, only to wake up one day and realize you’re working harder now than ever before?
If you answered yes, chances are you’re an overworked entrepreneur who’s lacking one of the four key systems needed to build a business that runs on autopilot… not one that runs you.Time, energy, and effort are limited resources, so when you depend solely on these to scale a business, you cap your income, influence, and impact.
But true visionary leaders operate differently, because they know that inconsistent lead flow and revenue isn’t a reflection of your messaging, your expertise, or your skillset — it’s a problem that goes much deeper, and (lucky for you) is a simple fix.
Why most people don’t understand what the word “growth” really means The REAL reason your business growth has plateaued (HINT: it’s not the ‘fear of failure’ or ‘fear of success') The number one thing you need to run a successful business (that most entrepreneurs aren’t doing)PLUS: the (hard) question you’ll need to ask yourself + answer if you want to experience more freedom in your life and business
