Be Heard Vol.1 A guide to better conversational podcasts is brought to you by Joshua Wilcox, owner and operator of Brooklyn Podcasting Studio. This is one of the only courses you will find that is specifically designed to address the most common and major issue that prevents conversational podcasters from reaching their audience, THEIR CONTENT.
What makes this course special is that unlike a lot of books and courses on podcasting, very few of them go into detail about what it actually takes to make good conversational content. Which is ultimately the most important factor in whether your podcast will grow and reach it's intended audience.
Who is this course for?
This course is for the new or seasoned podcaster (that is frustrated that they're not seeing their audience grow).
This course is specifically for those doing conversational/unscripted podcasts, meaning you're not reading from a script or writing out everything you're going to say verbatim.
This course is also for individuals that want to know and understand what it takes to make good content for their podcast as well as how to run and operate a podcast.
Why you should purchase this course!
Honestly it's simple. What I see holding most podcasters back is a lack of understanding of what actually makes good conversational content. Many podcasters don't realize that they're sabotaging their own content by committing a lot of critical BUT easily correctable mistakes. Sadly, many podcasters end up getting frustrating and quit because these easily correctable mistakes go unaddressed and most podcasters aren't even aware of them. Be Heard Vol.1 is designed to remove these unseen barriers that hinder you from connecting and attracting the audience you want.
Also, to be frank I've done part for you, so that you don't have to. I have spent 7 years working in the podcast industry having recorded over 300 different podcasts and helped produce/record over 2500 podcast episodes and counting. That is more than 4000 plus hours of podcasts that i have listened to and observed (and counting). And what you're getting in this course is that wealth of experience and knowledge that I acquired "the hard way" by actually listening to and watching every single podcaster I worked with, observing what worked, what didn't work, and more importantly, why.
What is my goal for you with this course?
My goal for you with this course is to give you the methods, tactics, and tips that I've spent years developing that will help you remove and/or completely avoid, the most common barriers that many podcasters unknowingly create in their content that are getting in the way of them truly being heard and creating podcast episodes that actually resonate with audience they want to reach. This my goal for you with this course, plain and simple. In addition this course will also give you insights on how to run and manage your podcast which outside of creating content is 2nd biggest thing that most podcasters struggle with.

- Introduction & Mindset- (This section lays the foundation for this course and highlights the key principles you need to keep in mind when creating your podcast content as well setting the realistic expectations of what it's like to run your podcast. This is not full of cliche motivation to get you pumped up about podcasting. It's about giving you the real understanding how you should approach creating your content.
- The Pitch- (This section goes over understanding what your podcast is really about and being able to express it in a way that attracts the audience you want)
- Name & Logo- (Many podcasters are missing out on new listeners and viewers just because they have the wrong name and logo. This section shows you how to avoid this self-sabotage)
- The Setup- Arguably the most important section in this entire course. This section teaches you how to setup and frame your podcast conversations so that your audience is engaged from the beginning of your episodes.

- Interviews/Guest episodes- This portion of the course is a super comprehensive breakdown of how to approach guest episodes in order to maximize what you, the guest and your audience get out of these types of episodes
- Marketing- Podcast marketing methods change all the time and differ based on the audience your targeting. But this section aims to touch on some tried and true principles I've seen work. That way you're not simply posting and praying you audience will come.
- Build Your Team- This section illustrates the importance that you need help to run your podcast and how to go about building your team.
- Final Thoughts- Sometimes not all advice fits neatly into a chapter so included here are some final nuggets here as well as some parting advice to re-emphasize the most important things in this course.
