What You Will Learn?

  • My name is Miguel Weston and this is How To Start a Podcast: 4 Weeks to Launch. This is a course for anyone who has always wanted to start a podcast but had no idea where to begin. .
  • Over the next hour or so, I will guide you through the process of creating a podcast from start to finish, including planning, production and distribution. .
  • Because this is for beginners, I’ll be covering the basics of podcasting and won't be getting too deep into the technical aspects of the recording and editing processes, but I’ll be providing resources and tips that will help students to get started with ease and confidence. .
  • I’ve chosen the 4 week timeframe for students to launch their show because it’s a good amount of time to take advantage of the tips and tricks that I provide in the lessons. Specifically when it comes to using free trials for different tools and software, before committing to a purchase. .
  • While this is designed for completion within 4 weeks, feel free to tackle it at your own pace. Whether you sprint through it or prefer a more relaxed journey, the choice is entirely yours. Do whatever works best for you!.
  • The purpose of this course is to get a podcast up and running quickly and effectively. By the end, students will have a solid understanding of the key elements of a successful podcast and be ready to launch their own show. .
  • Make sure to download the workbook before you start the videos, as it contains supplemental materials mentioned in the course..
