MEET YOUR INSTRUCTORS

The husband-and-wife team behind 20 million+ podcast downloads

Meet Darren and Jessie! They’re content marketing experts and leaders in the podcasting space…

And in 2021 Darren joined the Hubspot team, producing a string of hit podcasts like Marketing Against the Grain and The Daily Hustle Show.

But before that, Darren and Jessie met Molly: producing her first podcast, Perpetual Traffic, and laying the groundwork for a long, successful partnership with her and Smart Marketer.

Perpetual Traffic was a huge success.

So when Molly and Smart Marketer decided to launch their own podcast in 2019, they called Darren and Jessie.

400 episodes later The Smart Marketer Podcast is still going strong, and even though Molly and John have a million things going on, they still produce high-quality podcasts every week that are enjoyed by people world-wide.

(Consistency is the hardest part of running a podcast, but Darren and Jessie make it so easy with all their production frameworks.)

Now, Darren and Jessie have partnered with us on our new Podcast Launch Blueprint!

A highly tactical course for marketers and brand owners who want to use audio storytelling to build authority, grow an audience, generate loyal customers, and even become an influencer (if you’re into that).

They’re incredibly talented and wonderful people — you’re in great hands!

“Every single podcast Darren and Jessie have developed has charted on Apple Podcasts. They’re incredible!”

A podcast is the perfect content engine for digital brands

Are you struggling to stand out from other brands? Feeling like you can’t turn those one-time buyers into repeat customers who come back again and again?

A great product alone won’t buy customer loyalty. No matter what you are selling, it’s essential that you connect with your customers beyond the product to grow and scale — and that’s where great content marketing comes in.

One of the best bets to make in 2025 are on podcasts. These are one of the most impactful options for building brand authority, growing an audience and generating repeat customers.

Reach a massive audience of passionate listeners

Just look at these stats:

Podcasts aren’t just about the numbers though - they are one of the best ways to:

Connect with customers on a deeper level

Leverage your content across multiple channels

And they integrate easily into all your other content efforts:

But the question with content creation is always, “How do you make good stuff, produce it consistently (and cost-effectively), and use it to get the highest ROI possible?”… And that’s exactly what we teach you in this Blueprint.

Is this Blueprint right for you?

The Build & Launch a Podcast Blueprint is for anyone who wants to use audio storytelling as a content engine to build authority, grow an audience & generate loyal customers.

NEW & EXPERIENCED PODCASTERS

Walk through every step of the process to build a podcast or revive an old podcast with expert guidance to help elevate your pod game.

ALL BUSINESSES & JOB TITLES

Podcasts work across all markets and industries: ecommerce, info products, aspiring influencers, agencies, business owners — you name it.

ANY CONTENT STRATEGY

Consider making podcasting your main content source or incorporating a podcast into your current content strategy.

Achieve Your business goals

Grow a passionate audience, connect with customers on a deeper level, build authority in your market, and generate loyal customers.

What's a Blueprint?

Blueprints are our most targeted trainings, designed to be low cost but high impact.

Unlike our Smart Courses, the point isn’t to learn everything there is to know about a single platform (e.g., Facebook ads).

Instead, you get step-by-step instructions on how to implement one complete marketing strategy (like launching a podcast!), along with all the resources and support you need to execute it successfully.

TACTICAL

This Blueprint isn't theory, you'll walk away with a tangible asset to help grow your business.

FOCUSED

You'll be implementing one complete strategy that produces real results.

FAST

Efficiently complete this blueprint with "sprints," — cycles of learning and implementation.

AFFORDABLE

Blueprints are designed to be low cost but high impact.

Course Outline

This Blueprint contains video tutorials that you can follow along. You should be able to build and launch your podcast in just 2 months!
