  This Podcaster Uses His Podcast to Source $10M Logistics Buyouts (with Pete Vera)

  Aug 18, 202640 minS1

  Most podcasters chase guests with cold outreach and get ignored. Pete Vera built the Exit Algorithms podcast as a door opener for his acquisition business, Green Rock Logistics, and now the guests come to him. A former US Naval officer, he earned a feature in the trade publication Acquisition Aficionado and a spot on Million Podcasts' list of top 3PL (third-party logistics) shows. In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Pete Vera reveals the trade show move that turns event speakers into podcast guests, the twenty-clip weekly posting rhythm that filled his inbox with inbound requests, and the niche data tool that makes prospect lists specific instead of generic. Want your show to open doors instead of chasing them? Invite the people you want to meet as guests and let the relationship come first.

  Aug 4, 202640 minS1

In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Caitlin Durning reveals the four word title change that pushed her show into the top 3 percent on Listen Notes, the free value strategy that turns volunteer talks into consulting contracts, and the way sponsored guest episodes can support a show without turning it into an infomercial.

  How This Podcast Brings In 75% of Her Clients Without Cold Pitching (with Beverly Cornell)

  Jul 28, 202643 minS1

  Most podcasters guard their downloads and forget to guard the thing that actually holds their business together. Beverly Cornell learned that lesson the hard way. She built a podcast back in 2007 that passed a million downloads and became required listening for Michigan State economics students, then lost the whole thing, files and domain, when a relationship ended and an ex kept the assets. In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Beverly reveals why she now owns her files, accounts, and domain start to finish, how she turns the people she wants as clients into guests so a large share of her business runs through the show, why she treats each interview like a discovery call, and how she brands the whole guest journey down to the calendar link. Want a show that builds authority and brings the right clients to you? Own your assets first, then make your guest list your growth engine.

  50 to a Dollar: The Global Ad Strategy for Scaling Your Channel (with Ben Olmos)

  Jul 21, 202642 minS1

  Most podcasters treat YouTube as a US-only platform. Ben Olmos built DissedMedia from scratch on a fully bootstrapped budget, growing 800 to 1,000 new YouTube subscribers per video spending just $20 per post, by targeting English speakers across the globe. In this episode of Podcasting Secrets with host Nathan Gwilliam, Ben reveals how to grow your YouTube subscriber count using global paid promotion for under $20 a video, how the PERMA framework from positive psychology gives podcasters a practical structure for content that sustains both the creator and the audience, and why finding your podcasting tribe is what gets you through hard seasons when motivation disappears. Want a low-budget YouTube growth strategy that actually works? Start by targeting English speakers globally and making sure your content is properly tagged for discovery.
