Sponsor - 2 Hour PodcastYes, that's right, I'm sponsoring my own show ?After producing hundreds of podcasts for myself and clients, I've been pouring all of my knowledge into my new course, 2 Hour Podcast, which shows you how to start, grow and monetize a podcast that takes you less than 2 hours per week.I know lots of people who want to start a pod and reap the rewards, but struggle to find the time, which is exactly why I made this course.I've taken a three-pronged approach to making a podcast efficiently. The first is a step-by-step video guide to creating your show, covering everything from branding, to editing to hosting. The second part is a 90 minute tutorial where I make a my own podcast completely from scratch, recording the first episode with Arvid Kahl, using the tips from part 1. The final prong is my full Notion system for creating my show, including my episode CRM, guest and outreach templates, plus an episode briefing doc.Head to 2hourpodcast.com to get the full course and get $10 off with the code "bites" at checkout.
