A one-hour workshop that turns "I've been thinking about starting a podcast" into "I know what to do." Built for entrepreneurs & creatives.
About this Event

St. Petersburg Conference Center has partnered with Launching Your Success for the launch of their brand-new Podcast Room, and we're kicking it off with the workshop that makes the whole thing make sense.

Podcast Basics: Simple Steps to Start a Podcast is a one-hour workshop designed for entrepreneurs, creatives, and business owners who have been meaning to start a podcast and just haven't quite figured out where to begin. No tech overwhelm. No jargon spiral. Just a clear, practical roadmap from someone who's actually done it.

By the end of this session, you'll know:

🎙️ How to nail down your podcast concept: topic, audience, format, and show identity before you ever touch a mic

🎙️ The basics of podcast production: what actually happens between "I have an idea" and "my episode is live!"

🎙️ Simple recording and editing tips that make the difference between a show people finish and one they abandon at the two-minute mark

🎙️ How to position and market your podcast so the right listeners can actually find it

🎙️ High-level branding fundamentals for your show because a podcast without a clear identity is just noise

🎙️ The key podcast and audio terms you'll actually encounter, so you walk into a professional recording space ready to work

You'll also leave with a Podcast Basics workbook, yours to keep, reference, and return to every time you sit down to record.

This Workshop Is For You If...

  • You've been sitting on a podcast idea for months (or years), and you're ready to actually do the thing
  • You're a business owner who knows a podcast could grow your audience, but you have no idea where to start
  • You've poked around on YouTube and come away more confused than when you started
  • You want to use the SPCC Podcast Room and want to feel prepared before you walk in

This Workshop Is NOT For You If...

  • You already have a running show with multiple episodes published
  • You're looking for advanced audio production or editing techniques

(Info about advanced offers available at the end of this workshop.)
