The most important rule for building a podcast audience:  CONSISTENCY.  Tuesday I was up against a deadline to get my most recent podcast edited so it could be released on schedule Thursday morning, 8AM.  Colorado-based Mike, my go to guy, had a family commitment for a couple of days.  My steady “Plan B” guy – tied up.   

I had to get the work done fast so I posted on Upwork… and I didn’t wait for people to reply – I invited seemingly qualified candidates in the U.S. and around the world to the job.  Al in Portugal raised his hand within 10 minutes, and he delivered great work in 24 hours.  The world is full of talented people eager to earn some money doing good work!
