Q & A\u2019s with Carey Green from Podcast Fast Track and more!<\/h2>\n
\n

When did you start podcasting?<\/h3>\n

The first podcast episode I published was July 24, 2012 and it was episode #1 of the Christian Home and Family podcast.<\/p>\n

Why did you start podcasting?<\/h3>\n

I launched that first podcast as a way to help launch the CHAF brand. It was\/is a venture aimed at helping Christian families build homes that honor God.<\/p>\n

Through it we offer marriage intensive weekends, premarital counseling, and other forms of help. The podcast was a means to getting noticed and building authority in the space.<\/p>\n

What is your show about?<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

The Christian Home and Family<\/a> podcast tag line is: Radical Faith for Generations. The show helps Christian parents develop radical Christian faith in their family that lasts for generations to come.<\/p>\n

The Podcastification<\/a> podcast is a fun look at the world of podcasting with tips, tricks, interviews, insights, and best practices shared to help people start a show, keep their show going, or make it better.<\/p>\n

The Live Build Change<\/a> podcast is designed to help Christian people LIVE their faith authentically, BUILD a business, and CHANGE the world through the integration of those two things.<\/p>\n

The aim is to teach people how to develop channels of side income, leading to the birth of a business, and the utilization of the profits to fund causes and needs that can truly change the world.<\/p>\n

What is your podcasting set-up?<\/h3>\n

I\u2019ve always kept it simple. I use an AT2005 USB microphone plugged directly into my laptop.<\/p>\n

I use Audacity to record and edit. I use Auphonic to optimize all files.<\/p>\n

I host at Libsyn (naturally) and use WordPress as my CMS.<\/p>\n

I use the player embed for each episode of my podcasts.<\/p>\n

If I\u2019m going remote, I have a Tascam DR\u201305 digital recorder that I use as is (no external mics used). I then take the files recorded, drop them into Audacity, and edit\/produce the episode.<\/p>\n

How have you promoted your podcast?<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Poorly to this point but I\u2019m making some adjustments to my process to include better promotion.<\/p>\n

My main approach at this point is to build relationships within communities online and share relevant content to the conversation.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve also just subscribed to a social media platform<\/a> that lets me recycle shared content over and over and I plan to share content in conversational, appealing, fun ways not \u201cListen to my podcast! Listen to my podcast! Listen to my podcast!\u201d<\/p>\n

What do you know now, that you wish you knew when you started?<\/h3>\n
