26Why Your Indie Podcast Isn’t Selling Books
Are indie podcasts really moving the needle for book sales—or are we all just pretending? In this brutally honest episode, I dig into the uncomfortable truth about podcast appearances, downloads, listener engagement, and whether any of it actually helps you sell your indie-published books.
