What If Your Podcast Was Closing Deals While You Slept? with Doug Sandler | Ep #911
Are you treating your podcast as one more thing on an already impossible schedule? Today’s featured guest has been podcasting for over 11 years and nearly 1,800 episodes. In this conversation, he’ll make the case that a podcast, run correctly, removes the sales cycle almost entirely. He also has a lot to say about what it took to step back from working 100-hour weeks in an entertainment agency and into a business that earns a healthy six-figure income on 15 hours a week.
The Smartest Inbound Channel for Agency Owners Who Hate Cold Outreach with Chase Clymer | Ep #857
If your inbound pipeline dries up tomorrow, do you have a channel that can refill it on demand? Every agency owner needs at least one reliable way to attract new leads when things slow down. Today’s guest doubled down on a podcast as that inbound engine, and it paid off big.
But launching your first episode is just the beginning. The real growth comes from getting your ideal clients as guests, creating a conversation that builds connection (not just content), and staying consistent long enough to earn momentum. He’ll break down how to find the right niche, build authority through partnerships, and turn podcasting into a powerful inbound system that keeps quality leads coming in on autopilot.
