Who am I?
I started podcasting in 2015 and am still learning. Before I launched my podcast, I added it to my business plan and went out and pitched the podcast to local businesses. Needless to say, I had my first sponsor before I recorded my first episode and now I have several more sponsors and it's become my career. When I started my podcast in 2015, I listened to some of the experts in this list and continue to do so. I also started listening to other experts which you will find in this list. If you want to start a podcast or continue to make yours better, listen to these.
