Learning from Podcast Mistakes with Courtney Andersen

Podcasting doesn’t have a comprehensive guidebook with the dos and dont’s spelled out for you. Because of that, we all make mistakes when starting our podcast! Courtney Andersen is here today to talk about her mistakes and learning moments in her 2 years of podcasting. This week, episode 103 of Listeners to Leads is about learning from podcast mistakes!
