Do you dream of having really awesome guests on your podcast but don’t know how to go about it? On today’s episode, host Mark de Grasse sits down with Jeremy Slate, CEO of https://commandyourbrand.com/ (Command Your Brand Media) and host of the podcast, https://www.jeremyryanslate.com/podcast-2/ (Create Your Own Life), to talk about leveraging a podcast to grow your brand. When Jeremy started his first podcast in 2014, he says it was absolute trash, but he doesn’t regret it. One of the biggest obstacles to getting started is thinking everything has to be perfect first. It doesn’t. Jeremy’s simple formula: go on some shows, get a good course on podcasting, start your own show, get on more shows to promote it. Command Your Brand is the top public relations firm for the podcast space and can help you do all that. Listen in as Jeremy shares a wealth of knowledge about starting a podcast, sticking with it, and doing it well.
