0 to 1M Podcast Downloads: 7 Battle-Tested Tips From Two Expert Hosts

What happens if you take three struggling freelance marketers, lock them in a seventeenth century cottage, and don't let them live until we fix their businesses? In August, I rented an old cottage in rural Ireland and invited copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and book coach Vicky, three freelancers desperate to stand the fuck out.

This is the concept of a new YouTube channel that I'm launching. You can watch the first episode for free right now. It's half an hour long. It's supposed to be entertaining as well as practical. I hope you'll enjoy watching it. So please set half an hour aside to watch it around your morning coffee, breakfast, lunch break, or on the bus or at the gym, whatever. The link to access this new YouTube channel is in the episode show notes. I really, really appreciate you taking the time to watch it.
