Joel Boggess is the co-host with Dr Pei of ReLaunch, a Podcast show that has earned several awards and grown by over a factor of 10 in just it’s first year.
Joel’s earlier career as a traditional broadcaster made for a natural transition to podcasting. In this episode he shares why every podcaster has to develop his or her own unique style, how to go about doing that, and much more, including the vital importance of promoting your podcast.

Help People Tell Their Story
Storytelling is the backbone of marketing, and podcasting is indeed a form of content marketing that becoming increasingly relevant.
Stories are relatable because they help us make sense of the world. Everyone wants to tell their story, provided they have a safe place for doing so.
This is a skill that Joel has developed over decades in the business of broadcasting. Having been a guest on ReLaunch, I know with certainty that Joel’s podcasting style not only puts his guests at ease, it creates a more natural dialogue that brings out fresh ideas.
Joel notes that 75-80% of his audience are listening with a mobile device. When you consider Google recently adjusted its search rankings to favor mobile friendly content, it stands to reason that podcasting is an ideal platform for marketing your business with style.
