How to Start a Podcast with Anchor

Anchor.fm just gave podcasters the "Easy Button"! It's true you can start your podcast in 5 minutes using Anchor.fm.

Anchor is said to be the easier way to make a podcast and take it from someone like me who has been podcasting for nearly a decade - it's actually true! Over the years I've watched my friends struggle with getting started with a podcast.

They have tons of excuses for not podcasting:

• Not enough time
• No equipment
• No knowledge of the tech
• No money for podcast hosting

But my friend, I'm here to tell you that starting a podcast has never been easier. Anchor let's you start your show from phone, you just set up your account, pick a name for your show and push record. No fancy mics, no boring manual, no money, no hassle. I'm here to make sure you don't miss a beat and to give you a hand in case you get stuck. I'll also show you how to level-up your show when the time comes.

Here's why I think it's so important for you to start your podcast now!

According to The Infinite Dial 2018 from Edison Research, 44% of people in the U.S. that are older than 12 have ever listened to a podcast (estimated 124 Million) and they listen to an average of seven shows per week. And as platforms like Spotify and Amazon's Alexa embrace podcasting, more and more people will begin to integrate listening to podcasts into their daily routine. In other words, as time goes by it's getting easier and easier to listen to podcasts that's why I'm so glad that making podcasts is getting easier too!

So if you're ready - grab your phone, and let's get started.
