Let’s tackle a question we get quite often: “What are the podcast milestones that I should be celebrating?”
First up, pause right now and give a big pat on your back if you’ve managed to get your podcast live. No, really. This alone lands you in an elite company, as many aspiring podcasters never see their dreams translated into reality. Go ahead, do a little happy dance. You’ve earned it!
Now, buckle up for more champagne-worthy events.
Got that ‘hard-to-get’ guest confirming their appearance on your podcast? That’s a huge ‘heck yeah’ moment. Did you have a conversation that exceeded all your expectations? Pull out that party popper. Managed your first super sleek, professionally edited episode that you can’t wait to launch on social media? It’s time to revel in your success.
Also, don’t forget to commemorate those magical episode numbers. Make an event out of hitting your 20th, 30th, 50th episode, and if you hit that glorious triple-digit mark? Well, then it’s time to paint the town red. Blast it out on social media, encourage your fans to spread the word — let everyone know about your awesome achievement!
We know it takes courage to create something and put it out there into the world. So, don’t just quietly nod to yourself when you reach a milestone. Celebrate it! Pop that cork, throw some confetti, or just sit back with a big, satisfied smile. Go ahead and create your podcast magic, make it personal, make it special, and then celebrate every wonderful, hard-earned inch of it.
Your victories, big or small, are worth celebrating. So go on, channel your passion, hit that record button, and let’s celebrate your podcast journey together.
