Most of us aren’t like those “I published once and now I’m a millionaire” influencers. Jennifer Loehding shares openly about her 5+ year journey of starting a podcast as a passion project, realizing she needed some products or courses for people to buy, nearly burning out from 1:1 Coaching, creating an ultra-high-ticket course without anything to warm up her audience, to starting a second show, putting her first show on hold, building her email list , and much more in this episode of Podcasting For Financial Professionals.
Although Jennifer is a life coach and her business may be significantly different from yours, don’t Sleep on the opportunity to learn from her. She feels like her journey to having a successfully sponsored show that drives sales into all 3 of her offer tiers could have been shortened if she’d gotten the right advice earlier in her journey…which is why she’s sharing it with you!

“Building a business isn’t about having everything perfect from the start; it’s about starting with what you have and evolving as you learn.” – Jennifer Loehding
Tips to apply to your podcast-production process today:
Embrace the Learning Experience: Things that don’t work aren’t “fails,” rather they redirect while teaching you a lesson. Having a learning experience vs failure mindset is crucial for both new and experienced podcasters in the ever-changing audio/video online marketing space.
Focus on Relationship-Building Above All Else: When you engage beyond the interview with your guests, you cultivate a professional network that will help grow your business in the long-run. This applies when you engage thoughtfully with listeners/followers too, creating a community of dedicated supporters around your show.
Adapt with New Technology: Tech challenges can be overcome. Whether you turn to a friend, industry professional, or a YouTube video for instructions, keep an open mind to new user-friendly and AI-improved tools available rather than sticking to a difficult or drawn-out workflow.
Leverage Podcasting for Business Growth: When you integrate your podcast into broader business strategies, such as sponsorship packages or funnels leading to course sales, it becomes a powerful marketing arm that can drive revenue. What are offers or products you aren’t talking about enough on your show?
Embrace Authenticity Over Perfection: Nobody wants perfect – it’s a complete turn-off. We all struggle with self-criticism and we all have verbal crutches and weird habits. When you focus on delivering genuine, helpful content despite those quirks, people are drawn to you and even come to love your flaws.
