#002: How Much Does It Cost to Start a Podcast
Manage episode 405774450 series 3554788
Like so many new podcasters, in the beginning I was relying on my most *trusted* mentors – Google and YouTube for all my advice on podcasting.
The funny thing is, today the first result when I Google “How much does it cost to start a podcast?” is a Forbes article that says starting a podcast could cost anywhere from $20 to $5,000?! That a huge range, and while it’s fairly accurate, that's probably not the answer you were hoping for.
My best advice is to remember it's okay to grow with your podcast and invest more as your audience and opportunities grow. Don't let the cost stop you from starting. After all, some of the most successful podcasts start with nothing but a great idea and a passion for sharing it!
