Zero to 25K Podcast Downloads & Immediate Clients With Emily Spigelmire

Hey Friend!

This interview is with one of my Podcast to Profit students, Emily Spigelmire. Her story is inspiring! Emily went from zero podcast downloads to immediately getting clients. Don’t worry! Emily will tell you how to use your podcast to attract new clients.

When Emily created her podcast, Beyond Broken Vows, she struggled to earn income through affiliate marketing. It wasn’t until she transitioned her podcast into a mission-driven business that she saw increased income and gained more clients.

Let’s learn how she did it using my specific online business strategy.

The Road to Gaining Clients

Stef: Welcome Emily! Tell us a little about your podcast and what you do.

Emily: I’m a mother, grandmother, and new homesteader. I’ve been a serial entrepreneur, but I started my podcast to help marriages that have experienced traumatic events.

Stef: That’s amazing! Tell us about your journey and how you ended up on the Podcast To Profit with me.

Emily: I have been a nutrition coach with a network marketing company for over 20 years and really loved it. It was just part-time, but it was perfect for me. I had just attended a discipleship conference with my church and was about to graduate. I was excited to combine nutrition and ministry for my clients. But just days before the graduation, I got the devastating news that my husband had been unfaithful.

It blew up my world, so everything went on hold. I lost my confidence and didn’t want to be in public for a long time. We stayed home and worked on recovery and let the Lord do some miraculous healing. A couple of years into that journey, I was ready to face the world again, but I didn’t know if I wanted to do what I had done before.

I went online looking for something I could do from home. After searching, I found affiliate marketing and jumped all in, but after months, I was so burnt out. Nothing worked even though I was showing up, and I couldn’t find my niche. I asked the Lord what to do because I couldn’t keep this up.

While scrolling Facebook, I came across your ad. I had seen a thousand ads, but I was really drawn to you because you mentioned building a Kingdom business without social media. It struck my heart, and I started to watch your videos, and I just loved it.

You mentioned podcasting, which was so foreign to me, but it felt like a warm blanket when my husband and I tried it. I knew this would help us use what we had been through and share what God has done in our lives. I joined Podcast Pro University and Podcast to Profit because I knew I wanted to build it, and I wanted you to help me monetize it.

You had the plan, and it was all mapped out.

Stef: That’s so cool to hear this story because we just started using ads about a year ago. It’s nice to hear this because ads can be tricky, and you can lose money. It’s cool that God can use something like a Facebook ad to reach people.

God will use us in unexpected ways if we will let him.

From Podcast to Profit to The First Clients

Stef: Did you have fears or apprehensions about joining the 6-month program?

Emily: My only fear was money because I had spent so much on this other program. We had to step out in faith and know this was our story and niche. Other than that, I didn’t have any fears. The value of the program was amazing.

Stef: This is the third or fourth time I have reworked this program, and I believe it is genuinely excellent. It’s nice to hear that confirmation. What was the program like for you and your husband? What was your favorite part?

Emily: It was so nice to do it together. It was fun to be on the same page and the same mission. I loved the community and being with the other students on the calls. Listening to other people’s questions was helpful. It was great to have the coaching support from your team. I won’t say it was a piece of cake because there were some hard pieces, but it was fun.

Stef: I love that you say it’s fun because I think this work is fun. We have a holistic approach to help you push and stretch yourself, but we also have fun aspects to build community. Some people learn through written instructions, others learn through coaching, and we have it all. We have all the pieces for everyone.

Many pieces are at play when trying to make consistent income from a podcast. Our view really creates that roadmap to create a revenue machine for you.

Tell us about your outcomes after finishing the program.

God Can Do Amazing Things Through Your Clients

Emily: I’m very proud of what we accomplished. We started a brand new podcast with zero downloads and ended up with over 25,000 downloads in 6 months, 65 countries, and a top 5% global podcast.

At the same time, we started a coaching program. We have been getting a steady stream of clients, which is exciting, too.

Stef: That’s huge! I love that you launched your offer, learned how to sell it, and got consistent clients. That’s the dream!

Everything you want is possible through this program.

Thank you for sharing all this today. If someone was sitting on the fence about joining P2P, what would you say to them?

Emily: I understand the fears, but I also know that God can do some amazing things when you step out in faith. If this is something you think He is leading you to, go for it! Because He will be with you every step of the way and grow you as you go. It’s so worth it.

I pray this blesses you!
