If you're struggling to grow your podcast despite having great content, you're not alone. Kev Michael, a podcast growth coach who's helped over 400 entrepreneurs and generated $3 million from podcasting, reveals the three most effective strategies used by the top 1% of podcasters today. It’s not just about "posting more", it's about how you share your content. From creating short-form viral clips that are intentionally designed to grab attention, to piggybacking on trending videos with your unique take, and writing thoughtful native content that casually plugs your show, these tactics are driving real results. Just ask the Fantasy Fangirls, who hit 1 million downloads within 3 months using viral TikTok clips!
But here's the key: Kev warns against trying to do all three at once. Instead, pick one strategy, go all-in, and get it working before moving on to the next. Content quality still matters, of course, but distribution is what separates thriving podcasts from those that stagnate. Kev’s episode emphasizes not only what works now, but how to tailor a strategy to your own strengths and audience. Whether you're aiming to scale, monetize, or simply break out of a download plateau, this breakdown is a must-watch for serious podcasters. Watch Now
