Start a Podcast and Build a Strategy with Nathalie Doremieaux

Send us Fan MailReady to stop guessing and start growing with podcasting? We sit down with Nathalie Doromieux from the south of France to pull back the curtain on what actually makes a podcast move a business forward. No fluff—just the real steps to go from “maybe I should start a show” to a focused system that builds trust, drives leads, and fits your life.We start where most people should: guesting. Nathalie explains how appearing on other podcasts helps you validate your voice, refine your angles, and meet new audiences with almost zero overhead. She shares practical ways to find shows—tapping your network, searching by topic, and using PodMatch—plus how to pitch with a clear, unique hook. From there, we get tactical about launching: keep gear simple, consider unedited episodes for authenticity, and choose accessible hosting like Spotify for Podcasters or Buzzsprout to streamline distribution and transcripts.Then we go deeper into strategy. Treat the podcast as a tool, not the plan. Define who you’re speaking to, what problem you solve, and the action you want listeners to take next. We cover season-based planning to avoid burnout, and why the real magic lives after publishing—repurposing into show notes, short clips, emails, and SEO-friendly posts. You’ll hear concrete ideas for promotion across social, your list, summits, and niche communities, plus a balanced take on audio vs video and how simple Zoom recordings can still win on YouTube search.Monetization gets the honest treatment. If you’re not chasing mass downloads and ads, your path is relationship-driven: craft episodes that showcase your values, frameworks, and client outcomes, then connect them to a thoughtful funnel—lead magnets, consult links, and nurturing. By the end, you’ll have a blueprint to start as a guest, ship a lean season, and build a steady pipeline without chasing perfection.If this helped clarify your next step, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s podcast-curious, and leave a quick review—what’s the one action you’ll take this week?Support the showCheck out more about your host, Morris Sims Visit our Facebook and LinkedIn Pages!
