102: How Systems Make Podcasting Easier

Podcast Launchpad with Angela Kelly Smith

Podcasting ends up being harder than you think. There are so many moving parts and tiny details to produce even one episode. No wonder most people quit their shows before they hit seven episodes. But having systems in place can make the complexities of podcasting much easier and free your brain up for more creativity.

Yes, systems really can help you be more creative! I didn’t believe it myself until it hit me in the shower one day. (More on that in the episode!)

Even though I avoided systems for most of my personal and professional life, I am now passionate about systems—especially when it comes to podcasting.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• What happened with me a few times before I put podcast systems in place
• What the shower has to do with systems
• How systems can make you more creative and where you can use that creativity in your podcast
• The 3 systems I recommend that every podcaster have
• My top recommendations for creating your systems
