episode 74: Don't join a podcast network for the wrong reasons
Sometimes, to make a breakthrough, you have to partner up with "the man." Sometimes it's worth it. But, don't jump at every chance you get. I recently had an opportunity to join a podcast network. In fact, it was a very good podcast network.
But, I turned it down.
Since writing this article, I've watched this podcast network do very well. Meanwhile, I've struggled to grow this podcast. In fact, my downloads went DOWN for the first time since I started a year and a half ago.
Some of that is from Product Hunt shutting down their podcasts section, and it's hard to know what else has caused it.
As I'll say in this article, it's totally possible that I made the wrong decision. But, it still feels right to me.
