The Inside Scoop on Signing with a Big Podcast Network with Cass Dunn | Ep 76

Joining a podcast network might sound tempting - they promise exposure, professional production, and faster growth. But what happens when the trade-off is losing creative control and splitting your ad revenue?   In this episode of Mics to Millions, we speak with Cass Dunn, host of the top 0.5% podcast Crappy to Happy, and a clinical and coaching psychologist. Cass has racked up millions of downloads, been featured by Apple Podcasts, and navigated both the highs and lows of working with podcast networks before choosing independence.   You’ll hear: -The reality of podcast networks (the pros, the cons, and what most podcasters don’t realize before signing a contract). -How Cass balanced loyalty to long-term listeners while keeping content fresh and attracting new audiences. -Why solo episodes and authenticity often resonate more than big-name guests, and how to use that to your advantage. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love the show?
